Safety First!!!

I read this story on cnn.com and got a major kick out of it.

Thought others might also....

http://www.cnn.com/2004/US/Central/0....ap/index.html

Especially this part:

"Police said Perala took off his shirt and put on safety glasses before throwing around computers, phones and other items."

Re: Safety First!!!

What I'm wondering is does he happen to just carry safety glasses with him everywhere he goes? He said he was going there to "yell at the employees only" (quoted from the article). The fact that he brought the safety glasses and put them on before he started to trash the store makes it sound like it was his original plan after all.

Or maybe he always carrys his safety glasses when going to the mall. It just might be a "rough" mall to go shopping in!

Re: Safety First!!!

That's what I was wondering. Perhaps it was a baggy shirt, and he didn't wish for it to get caught in something. They taught us that in chem class. Teehee.

Of course, I am always properly equipped with safety goggles, a welder's mask, chem apron, and, of course, a HAZMAT suit, just in case.

Let me guess, MOE has the "green light" to practice Safety in the pits?
