I realized a decade-long ambition today: I bought a Sears water hose. 😎
As a plumber for large shops, I used to visit about a thousand homes a year. Now, on my own, I make about 1/3 as many calls. Even still, for over sixteen years, I’ve been to a lot of homes and I’ve used a lot of water hoses. Never have I seen a hose that compares with the ones sold by Sears. They’re just good.
Can’t say as much for their legal, department, though. On the cardboard that came wrapped around my new hose, I found this on the inside:
“WARNING: Do not spray water into an electrical outlet. Severe electrical shock could result.”
By rights, other such warnings should be equally necessary. “Do not use this hose for colonic irrigation.” “Do not drive with this hose coiled around your head and eyes. You could have a wreck.” “Do not swing the end of this hose around when others are present. It could hit someone in the eye.” “Do not spray water on passing strangers. They could charge you with assault.”
We’re doomed, I tell ya. :angry:
