Good Morning. How’s the world treating you today? Or should I say how did it treat you this past weekend, perhaps it’s to early to determine today’s treating. Just hope you were treated well. Hey, I just heard something on the radio about a window washing in Nashville Tennessee cleaning windows around the 20th floor on the Fifth-Third Bank apparently fell asleep. Now…I have fallen asleep on the couch, also at a movie…(The Documentary of Noah’s Ark) That flick was about as interesting as watching lawyers decipher the National Electrical Code….Yeah.. Prod me with a hot iron. I have fallen asleep high in the air as well…. Not the 20th floor mind you I was on an Airplane. I heard tale that I also as a kid did the Spaghetti face first dive into my plate…Now how many kids have not done that? I have fell asleep in a hammock and nodded at company meetings....Yeah…those were important blah, blah, blahs.. But in all my recollections I just can’t remember a time I was dangling from scaffolding 20th stories high while cleaning a window and decided to drift off into sleep. Now this man had to be tired. Apparently by standers noticed the man had not moved in about 30 minutes and the paramedics were called, fire trucks blaring their sirens did not wake the dude. So the paramedics went up to the 20th floor held a sign up from inside the building as fireman below tugged the sleepy window washers ropes and he awoke up to seeing people starring at him with a sign and god knows what it said. Perhaps Hi! Or.. if you are a fan of the Movie Madagascar Wakey, Wakey Mr Alex! Perhaps it even could have said Hey dude time to come in ok? No idea, but what kind of idiot sleeps while dangling? I mean…come on, it’s not like it’s that comfortable now..is it? I get more then 10 feet off the ground and (I only have two feet mind you the reference was to how high my own two were from the ground) I just starting puckering. No not kissing puckering either! Me and Heights don’t mix.. Perhaps there is something to being 6’4” and all because I know shorter guys that can act like Monkeys and climb all over TV towers trees.. you name it (I also know some guys that are just Monkey Asses but that is another story) Well apparently the guy lowered himself down to the ground safely and was taken to a local hospital to be checked out. No apparent findings just a tired ass. Oh well. I truly hope the weekend was all that for you and a bag of chips…Not really sure what that means other then a special one with a snack on the side. So do have a wonderful Monday in what ever you have planned and do go rushing out for your own ropes and scaffolding just yet…I am sure it’s not all that fun sleeping outside a building….
