    My wife just read this thread. I thought I was in trouble but guess not. She walked away with a smile on her face. I gues I

    Oh Oh, she just walked back in the room with a flashlight in one hand and that 'look' in her eye. I'm gone.

    When our wives have time to look up what a "violet wand" is....... thats when we're all in trouble!

    I'm pretty sure it has something to do with a magic trick!

    Which "look?"

    The seductive, sultry "look" or the "I have an industrial MagLite in my hand and I'm gonna beat the s*** out of you" look?

    Inquiring dirty minds want more details

    I'm pretty sure there is no mention of a flashlight in the Kama Sutra

    Something tells me the flashlight was to "see" in the dark Prius.

    Maybe not, but they do figure in jokes, usually with some sort of punch line about getting a flashlight and tying a board onto your rear end.

    That couldn't be the case here, since I would never link someone's wife to that sort of story.

    No, it doesn't hurt, and it does keep you from falling in. :p

    Isn't all technology driven by magic? That's what I learned in engineering school.

    I always have fun telling grade school dropouts that engineers actually do NOT study "injuneering" or "math" in "skool." Instead, we're given a Ouija Board, a Book of Spells, and have to perform ritual human sacrifice to make things work

    Once I have them hooked, I then tell them that everytime they flick on a light switch, a human is sacrificed.

    :rolleyes:

    I'm a baaaaaaaaaaaaad man

    My school ruined all the magic. Now I'm just bitter. My GF says I'm the dream killer.

    Don't forget to drop and roll.

    Or is that stand up and run?

    Whatever you're supposed to do when you burst into flames ...
