Welcome to TWW Enterprises: PETA supporters get the blame for this one

The Warped Woodturner (TWW) is a local artist traveling his artist's journey in a suburb of Springbrook, WI (pop. 536). TWW's creative calling is to use a wood lathe to make useless objects from locally-sequestered organic carbon for tourists to bring back to the city to give to people they had to buy something for but do not like that much. His target market is the senior citizens since their vision is not as good as it used to be so cannot see the defects as well. His marketing jingle is: “Bowls as simple as their creator”.

PETA supporters get the blame for this one

People for the Ethical Treatment of Ants (PETA) are the cause of a recent power problem on Garbin Moraine. There is a transformer outside dropping the power from the pole down to 110 volts. It was designed to work above ground. When TWW called the power coop to report flashing lights they sent out a crew to investigate. They struggled to get the transformer cover off. Once they got it off they found about two gallons of sand inside the box. The lineperson said it was the work of ants. Perhaps it was a protest against something. The moist sand had caused corrosion on the connectors.
