This is a Vacuum

On Friday I purchased the Bissell FeatherWeight Vacuum. It works great and it was a good purchase. The vacuum came with a instruction manual and as I was thumbing through it I kept thinking this manual was made for a South American lost tribe that had just been discovered and had no knowledge of the modern day world.

A couple of the warnings:

Do not leave vacuum cleaner unattended when plugged in. Do not pick up flammable materials (lighter fluid, gasoline, kerosene, jet fuel, hydrogen fuel and liquid oxygen oxidizer) or use in the presence of explosive liquids or vapors. Da.

Do not use to hammer a blasting cap.

Do not carry the vacuum while it is running and caring scissors at the same time. Do not use vacuum cleaner in an enclosed space filled with vapors given off by oil base paint, paint thinners, some moth proofing substances, flammable dust or other explosive or toxic vapors, hydrogen cyanide; carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide.

Do not use vacuum while under water.

Hold vacuum in hand not shoved up your ass.

Power Cord Storage Turn vacuum off. Unplug power cord by grasping the ploarized plug (Do not use your teeth.). NOT the cord, and disconnect from outlet.

So take note Tano and Aruak tribes you have the warnings.

My wife tells me that her dad went through a phase where he collected vacuum cleaners. Even for someone who celebrates degeneracy such as myself, I've always found this odd.

But you make me realize that the fun is in the manual. Now I get it.

Howdy would you mind stating which blog platform you're working with? I'm going to start my own blog in the near future but I'm having a hard time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I'm
looking for something completely
unique. P.S Sorry for being off-topic but
I had to ask!
