had to update my "stupid" list, there's a new #1
In my long list of stupid shit I've done I have a new number 1 that will probably take me a while to top but the year is young.
I have a ton of trees on my property. The ones that are cool but I hate more than any others is the set of pines I have. I have 20-30 "lodge pole" pine trees. 30-40 ft pines. They drop limbs like no bodies business on a regular basis. I pile them up at the back of the property every winter and when everything gets green in the spring and I have a good wind I burn them. Sunday was that day. I started the fire and had good 20-25 ft flames going. After it died down to 3-4 ft flames I had my wife keep feeding in small branches while I mowed the yard. When I got to the front yard and passed in front of the pines I noticed a 20 ft limb on the ground so I grabbed it and drove the mower back to the fire pit.
I got back to the fire pit and put the mower in neutral and got off to throw the limb on the fire. When I got off my foot hit the gear shift on the mower throwing the mower into gear. It took off jumped over the first set of cinder blocks and landed right in the middle of the fire. My wife started screaming and I was hussling around trying to get the damn mower out of the fire. I tried pushing it from behind but it was to far into the fire to really do that so I ran around in front and grabbed the steering wheel with one hand and the blade engage lever with the other hand and gave it a yank. The engage lever came forward engaging the blades and slinging fire and burning embers halfway across the yard. I disengaged the blades and started yanking on the steering wheel and it finally came out over the cinder blocks and now was heading towards the briar thicket behind me. I jumped in front of it to hold it back and was finally able to turn the key off.
When it was over the tires were smoking and the fire pit had a center strip mowed into it. I was laughing so hard my sides hurt. That's the dumbest shit I've ever done.Last edited by 0rion; 05-07-2007 at 08:52 PM.
