But, I must admit, I would never have thought of looking there myself. That sure is my girl! I can just see you climbing into that nasty thing. <BR/><BR/>Have I ever been in one? OH, yes, many times. You see, I had the job of repairing our compactor/trash containers at Sears for many years. We owned them so we fixed them. As you know, the smell is very unique! <BR/><BR/>I would sometimes have to weld a cracked joint or fix a switch problem or remove compacted trash that tore lose conduit/wiring to switches. I always had a fire extinguisher on stand-by and someone to watch for a fire to develop as I had on a welding helmet with a very dark shade and could not see a fire at all until I removed the helmet, and then it would have been out of control.<BR/><BR/>What a beautiful girl at the first 39 years!! No wonder Bill keeps you around! What a blessed man!<BR/><BR/>PapaPamela (Peni) Teelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02974374628102788996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16593640.post-1150902854942515302006-06-21T11:14:00.000-04:002006-06-21T11:14:00.000-04:00So funny.
