We found this Biolite Camp Stove the other day over at Silodrome . Silodrome is an awesome website and this stove-thing is amazing.

Dumbest Thing You've Done This Week

After a torrential rain last week and some flooding of the basement of the old Post Office I was going to move the de-humidifier to another area to do work. It was plugged into an outlet about nine feet off of the floor. The appliance was plugged into a three-foot long junction box/extension, because the de-humidifier has a six-foot power cord. Most all of the plugs here at the P.O. are either in the floor (literally), or 9 feet up a wall or column.

Instead of going to get a stool or a step-ladder I thought to myself, "Self, just grab that cord and snatch it deftly out of the wall and catch the box when it comes down." Best laid plans of mice and men and all. So, I did that.

When I yanked back on the appliance cord that four-way junction box separated from the 3-prong plug, flipped end over end and caught me between my upper lip and nose. Hilarity ensued. Cue the Benny Hill Chase music . Been a long time since I've had a bloody nose.

Of course I spun around like you always do whenever you've done something amazingly stupid, even though I was completely alone. I fully expected Zeke to be sitting there with some sort of editorial comment.....
