In a fit of rage over something that happened at work one day, I came home and it was in my way. I picked it up, beat the hell out of it, and tore it apart with my bare hands. My wife was vacuuming the floor at the time. With hose still in hand, she looked at the mangled remains and exclaimed, 'FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, HON, what the hell that vacuum cleaner ever do to you?'Within 5 minutes, Federal Marshalls, accompanied by a special task force of FBI agents, arrived with a squad of vacuum cleaners from the S.P.C.V.C.:quot;Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Vacuum Cleanersquot;I was arrested per the little known 1982 Vacuum Cleaner Assault Act, taken to Langley, VA, and forced to attend Vacuum Cleaner Anger Management classes. The place was packed.
Wonderful memory, warmly told, great, dry humor! Wish I could give you 10 stars for sharing it with us! PS I lived near Langley once! Always
Wow. I knew a person who did the same thing. They were arrested and went to jail for 40 years. I hope you know I was kidding lol.
No, but I have a Kirby I'm working on seeing what it won't suck up. I used it to vacuum out the oven when it was so dirty,..... nothing would cook in it. I use the Kirby as a leaf blower, it leaves the men in the 'hood perplexed, I'm looking for other surfaces for the Kirby to suck blow:)
Good one! :-P I did accidently!!! I was coming home with my vacume I just had repaired, it was a Hoover. The other car I had at the time was a hatch back. well, the clip on it had broken and I was traveling down the highway back home when the back flew open and my vacume took off, hit the ground........................ I was driving like 60 on that freeway and looking out my rear view window at my horror, the poor thing was sparking all over the place and other cars were dodging it in it's pass as it was litterly cruising backwards at high speed! I sincerely hope it didn't cause any accidents but I could have been cited for that. Nevertheless, I had the back door fixed and have a different car now. As for the poor Hoover, it went to the BIG Pearly gates in the sky!!!!!!!!!!!! :-( +(
i, in my previous days in federal government, helped author that bill back in '82 because of a stranger who demolished all the vacuum cleaners in my neighborhood... he eventually got the death penalty...
