Regular patrons of this here blog know well that me Grandpa Joe rented arc welding machines, and that he trained as a welder. I've too lamented how he hated tangled welding cable, hated it with a passion. So it was quite a surprise one day when he told me that if he ever took a ride on an airplane, he'd take a length of welding cable wrapped around him.
Completely perplexed, I stammered, "Why would you do that?"
"Cause if I fell out of that plane it would save me. Welding cable always snags on something."
Who says Joe didn't have a sense of humor?
