Standing brooms?!

Post by Nick »

What the H!? Solar flares, the equinox, and brooms standing on their own? What's going on?

My facebook page is filled with pics of peoples brooms standing on their own. Something about the equinox and the solar flares making a screwy magnetic field, causing the brooms to stand by themselves.

My brooms are cool because they always lean on a wall or hang out.. Usually from a hook in the garage.

Damn, the brooms are now one step away from cleaning the house on their own? If it wasn't for her cooking I almost wouldn't need a wife!

As a Caltrans worker I need one of those brooms and I'll modify it into a free standing shovel. So tired of the way shovels just lean against me all day long.
With my new shovel looking busy, I can kick it in the truck! LOL

If the shovels stood themselvs up would anyone in CalTrans that isn't a supervisor get laid off?

Of course not, that would make too much sense. Caltrans just spent thousands of dollars putting a new diesel engine in a wore out 90s Chevy I drive and then before we even got it back it was declared surplus. It will go to public auction and will sell for next to nothing?????

Back to shovels, I designed my own Caltrans shirt that has an inverted pocket. Simply slide the shovel handle up into it and.....hands free for coffee and donuts. Oh the things we devise to work smarter...haha!

We hate it too, but nothing we can do as it all comes down from Sacramento.
