I once cut thru a 15 amp line with a paire of wire cutters. That was kind of exciting. A big POP sound and a flash of blue light. The wire cutters had a nice 14 gauge hole in the cutting edge as a result. It would have to be more spectacular for the weasel to cut into a 66 kV line.

“The wire cutters had a nice 14 gauge hole in the cutting edge...”
And, if you’re like me, you still have those cutters. I just cut wire where the hole isn’t. I hate to throw away an almost perfectly good pair of Klein 9” offset sidecutters.

Ha! That’s right. The rest of the blade is still fine, and now it’s a combo wire cutter and stripper!

Now the weasel will be declared “endangered” and the weasels in the BLM or EPA or PETA will shut it down for good.

Weasel Stomping Day (Invented by Weird Al Yankovich)
Faces filled with joy and cheer
What a magical time of year
Howdy Ho! It's Weasel Stomping Day
Put your Viking helmet on
Spread that mayonaisse on the lawn
Don't you know it's Weasel Stomping Day
All the little girls and boys
Love that wonderful crunching noise
You'll know what this day's about
When you stomp a weasel's guts right out
So, come along and have a laugh
Snap their weasely spines in half
Grap your boots and stomp your cares away
Hip hip hooray, it's Weasel Stomping Day
People up and down the street
Crushing weasels beneath their feet
Why we do it, who can say?
But it's such a festive holiday
So let the stomping fun begin
Bash their weasely skulls right in
It's tradition, that makes it okay
Hey everyone, it's Weasel Stomping
We'll have some fun on Weasel Stomping
Put down your gun, it's Weasel Stomping Day
Hip Hip Hooray, it's Weasel Stomping Day
