How to break common sense law #437
Tags :Humor
As I walked up the street in downtown St Louis,
they are building lofts everywhere. Well some construction workers
took it upon themselves to do a little handy work to make their jobs easier.
The location: Beautiful day in the
80's at lunchtime , strong breeze gusting at times, mostly sunny. This
takes place at the corner of Olive and about 8th Street in downtown St
Louis.
The characters: Two construction workers,
hardhats on their heads and standing on the sidewalk
The scene: Two construction workers
found a large wasp nest hanging below where they are working on a loft
on the second story. They approach the street with spray in hand.
They take aim noting no one within 10 feet or so on the sidewalk.
The spray strikes the nest (lets recall the wind gusts). The
wind takes the spray immediately the other way all over people. Of
course the wasps are now incredibly mad and swarm out to the sidewalk.
The people 10 feet away are now 3 feet and everyone takes off running.
Construction workers drop the spray can and tear off losing hat also
as wasps fly everywhere.
The moral: Common sense law #437 dictates
that thou shall not spray can into wind at wasps during daylight, and if
this infraction occurs with innocent people nearby, you shall get all the
stings on said buttocks
