What new species of burrowing spider did they discover today? The one who ate Mike the pipelayer whole. He's gone. Devoured along with his work truck.

Went to school with a guy who did that for a bit. He ended up quitting because the job it was so repetitive, and seemed genuinely surprised by the fact.

And there might be more! These here are probably the transmission lines and not distribution or gathering limes which can increase the mileage significantly
