A chuckle for everyone

I got this from a friend this morning. Make sure to read story at bottom.

"Good news is that I truly out did myself this year with my Christmas decorations. The bad news is that I had to take him down after 2 days. I had more people come screaming up to my house than ever. Great stories. But two things made me take it down.

First, the cops advised me that it would cause traffic accidents as they almost wrecked when they drove by.

Second, a 55 year old lady grabbed the 75 pound ladder almost killed herself putting it against my house and didn't realize it was fake until she climbed to the top (she was not happy). By the way, she was one of many people who attempted to do that. My yard couldn't take it either. I have more than a few tire tracks where people literally drove up my yard."

Great photo. At first glance, I thought it was real too, but then wondered why somebody would be taking a picture while the guy was hanging from the gutter. Then I realized it was a joke, and a very good one too!!!!!

The story makes perfect sense too. I can see people driving by, seeing this, and stopping to help. It's actually nice to know that people DID stop to offer help.

Thanks for the laugh,
Eddie

Great pic. In a comedy movie, the passersby would be carrying out your TV

Good one, that's funny. Like Eddie said, at least it's nice to know people did stop to help, lol.

I'm jealous that I didn't think of it first.

It reminds me of a garage that had a similar rig featuring a dummy in coveralls with the top half stuck under the fallen hood of a car.

Well, at least he had (has?) good taste in ladders... He was "using" a Little Giant ladder.

I just drove by a setting similar to this tonight only it was the ladder still against the house with the guy holding the ladder with one hand and the gutter with the other with his body hanging over the side and his feet still hooked on the ladder. Just picture it and think about how many times we've all over extended our reach before.

Merry Xmas & Happy Holidays
