Requiem for a mouse

March 13, 2007

Cajun is a high-power guy.  I mean, really high power electric systems that run giant electric motors and pumps and keep industry going (to say nothing of pumping natural gas up North to us frozen Yankees).  When he writes about his work, it’s always a window into the industrial places most of us never get to see. 

Latest (fully illustrated) installment, Requiem for a mouse, or why small rodents should be more careful about the little spaces they wriggle into…  :lol:   Yeah, I admit I laughed out loud, but I doubt it bothered the mouse any.

UPDATE:  There’s more!  Here’s a little sample, you can go read the rest:
