hi guys and ladies i thought why not make a neverending story like i run a sentince or two then next person add one or two along the way and third person add along the way and so on,. it can be sense of humor or true story either way you feel.
thanks Marc let me start the first sentence
The comstomuter came in the building and try to hit the light switch but there is no light at all so,,,
[your turn to add this along the way .]

After coffee was ready they let go and used a small pair of vice grips to hold all the wires together. Then wraped the wires and vice grips with duct tape. One of the carpenters said, "How will we get them back in the box now?" The other more expierience carpenter said, " I learned a little trick years ago, maybe you will remember it and pass it on to your apprentices." He then took his hammer out and smashed in the box so it feel inside the wall and inserted the vice grip/duct tape connection into the wall. Immediately afterwards he opened a bucket of mud and started filling in the hole. After the coffee cooled down enough to drink they sat around talking about their vast electrical knowledge when one of the younger carpenters interupted them and said, "Hey, do you guys smell something funny?" They all stopped and looked. They saw...........

While waiting for the answer the computer went dead. There was now no power at the receptacle.
The head carpenter spoke up,"I wired that a couple of weeks ago and it was holding just fine. I guess the duct tape spice to the range circuit that I did up in the attic must have come loose."
Like a shot from a gun he hurried up the access hatch and crawled into the attic.
Crawling though the attic he got snared up on some unsupported wire and came crashing through the ceiling right onto the bed of Mrs.Ownerswife's 18 year old daughter who was just about to insert the batteries in her .....

all of a sudden from down the street a car comes racing towards the site. As the car stops it backfires and blue smoke totally engulphs the scene. Everyone stopped and stared.
After the smoke cleared in front of the car stood a man wearing a gold painted hard hat, gaffs, and is holding a #6 AWG wire in his hands.
"I am decolores9, I am now taking charge, as you may not know I am also a qualified lineman in 6 states."
He tells the carpenter to move the ladder and decolores9 immediately starts to climb the pole with his gaffs and uses the #6 as a strap.
Half way up the pole he reaches the phone/cable lines and gaffs out and immediately starts to....

have them resharpened!" With that, she wheeled around and headed back into the house, followed closely by Mr. Owner, who was wailing about how much precision scissor resharpening costs, and by his daughter, who was teaching her furby to say "One ten dot twelve!" over and over.
After posting a few dozen red tags around the premises for good measure, the chief inspector gave the lineman a lift to the hospital burn ward, Bob Vila left to exchange the ratchet, and Norm and his crew dismantled the bucket lift because it was starting to sink into the lake that was forming.
By then it was getting dark, the handyman and his friends had finished off all the beer in the rapidly-warming refrigerator (burp), and they all left to find a neighborhood convenience store that still had power.
But when Mrs. Ownerswife walked into the house and flipped the switch to turn on the lights, there was no light at all...

Now Bob Vila, who claims to have as much if not more knowledge than the local handyman, says it's ok to put the smoke alarms on an afci circuit.

I can't send any electricians over because I just sent all of them overseas to fix the power so we can maximize oil production to make some big bucks.
