Moles 1 - Man 0

Life

I can't help thinking of Caddyshack.

Man electrocuted by do-it-yourself mole-killer

BERLIN (Reuters) - A German retiree who wired up a high-voltage cable to try to wipe out the moles digging up his garden killed himself instead, police said Thursday.

Uwe Werner, police spokesman in Stralsund north of Berlin, said the 63-year-old retired construction foreman was found dead in the garden of his weekend house in Zingst next to a 380-volt cable and metal spikes rammed into the ground.

"The moles survived," Werner said, noting the voltage was enough to run a cement mixer or heavy-duty power saw. "It was in any event an unorthodox method to try to get rid of moles."

You beat me to it! I had nearly this exact concept queued up for tomorrow. Now a decision, go ahead and post as a copy cat or write a new entry. Guess it'll depend on how busy I am in the early am. Glad you found this as funny as I did...
