How old is this guy, anyway? In what kind of shape?<BR/><BR/>LOL.<BR/><BR/>DH's reaction was to say, "well, if he's not strapping that down he's crazy," but other than that and wearing safety glasses, it's not necessarily any more dangerous than having too loose of clothing. Plus he mentioned the "easier to clean skin than clothes" thing.<BR/><BR/>Hmmm.

If I personally had to climb under someone's house, into some nasty crawlspace, the last thing I'm worried about is getting my clothes dirty. <BR/><BR/>All the unpleasant things you could encounter down there--bugs, dead animals, LIVE ANIMALS, snakes, spiders--why would you want to be vulnerably naked, with all your most vulnerable parts exposed? Aiii, I've freaked myself out just thinking about it!knoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13231876226573540476noreply@blogger.com
