It Is Hard Being Stupid

I have 2 riding lawn mowers and i decided to charge the batterys today. I charged the first 1 and moved the battery charger 2 feet and the charger stopped working.

I thought i tripped a circuit breaker so i go and reset the breaker and it still does not work. So i go in the house and get my multi meter and sure enough the battery charger is not working. I was thinking crap i paid 179 for my battery charger and it broke in 2 months.

I was getting tired so i was putting the extension cords up and sure enough the battery charger came unplugged from the extension cord.

It took 30 minuets to figure out it was unplugged.[:(]

Then about 3 hours later after i went inside to rest i was walking with two 5 gallon gas cans full and stepped in a dip in the ground and rolled my ankle over.

It has turned a pretty shade of purple.[:(]

Either getting older or chemo/ radiation to the head has screwed my thinking up bad.

I am a journeyman in facilities maintenance with my refrigeration certification along with a 2 year degree in facilities maintenance and now i can not plug up an extension cord.

if that's your first time you get a pass

I think that exact thing or similar has gotten everyone at least once




in the future, tie a single knot in the cords

tender truck driver for spray company I worked for came in saying fuel transfer pump wouldn't work. I spent 2 hours with that pump om the bench before another guy checked the tank, It was empty. Do not trust what "they" tell you.

Here's one, I have ground fault plugs in the carport the wife came in, trying to use her weed eater, she says the seedeater won't work, I ask, is the fan running, she said yes, so I get up, go out, check the seedeater, after about thirty minutes, I hobble to the front, the fan is not on, I ask her when did the an go out, it quit when the seedeater quit, I'm getting a Lilttle mad, I ask her, didn't I ask if the fan was working, oh I thought you meant was it working. Go over the gfi had tripped, reset everything working. Damn I was pissed. Tried not to show it, because she is the one taking care of me.

Well, you are not alone. If 52% of Americans had any intelligence at all Obama would never be president.
