Extinction cord?

Like, if you chop into it while it's plugged in? :D :p

I was once vacuuming in the living room when suddenly the vacuum cleaner stopped and I simultaneously heard a loud yelp from the hallway. Investigating in the hallway, I found the cord chewed completely in two and my trembling dog hiding under the bed.

James, that's the closest real life thing ,I have heard , to an unbelievably bizarre scene in the film noir DETOUR.

I'd need my wench truck to haul the thing. Unless, of course, someone beat me to it with their steak truck.

My favorite is "Sawzaw" or any of the other misspellings of the word.

I actually did cut a live extension cord in two once..on purpose.

My dad had a rental home next to a condemned house. Some squatters moved into the condemned house, and Dad's renters had allowed them to plug an extension cord into the rental house to run their fridge, lites, etc. Dad could not get the renters to unplug them, and his house only had a 60 amp service, hardly enough for the rental.

I went over there while I was at work (fireman) one day, declared it unsafe to the owner (Dad), took a pickhead axe and cut the cord at the property line, then ordered him to disconnect that unsafe cord from his rental house. The police were already watching the condemned house because they were selling drugs there, so it wasn't long before the squatters were gone. The renters left soon after, apparantly they were all friends.
