Last Humpday of 2005...Triviola!

I think I'll end the year with a fun and light hearted trivia....

According to statistics (gathered in 2002) what is the most dangerous job in America and carries the highest rate of fatalities?

Happy New Year! ;-)

If that's your lighthearted question ...

I'll say commercial fishing, like the kind out on the high seas.

Since this is a wood forum, and since I grew up in timber country, my first thought is Logging, followed by Fishing. It might just depend on the year which is first.

Yes, but the real answer is.....

....woodworking in my shop. Or maybe street sweeper in Baghdad. (ok, not an American job) ;-)

Logging is correct, however you are probably correct about it competing with commercial fishing as that was second in the survey.

Timberrrr!!! Stand on the right side of the tree and watch out for those nasty tree spikes!!

Happy New Year Everyone!
