What is the bug that you've found that made you laugh the most?

I say 9. I love pepperoni rolls! Homemade pepperoni rolls are the best thing anyone visiting West Virginia should try.

It is a very widespread problem and has destroyed lots of families, including mine.

Not a mine accident, but I worked at a steel mill in Ohio. We took steel cables and ran them through a die and made them smaller. They were dipped in Acid tanks before the materials were sent out. I was working the day shift and a man was killed on the machine that rolled steel cables up. His glove got caught and he was smashed flat. I had to take over the machine he left behind.

In the mine, one of my friend's dad worked on the day shift. They were setting timbers and he was running a coal buggy. A rock about 5 by 12 feet wide fell straight down on him. I went in the funeral home the next morning with my friend and he insisted I go in with him. It was an open casket funeral, and the body was laid flat on a table. He had broken bones all throughout his body. It was really upsetting and made it hard to go back to work, but I did.

Where I worked, we tried to do everything right and stay within the law. We worked in a union mine, and we had strict safety standards we went by. The union didn't tolerate safety violations.
