Dude....get some wires quick......LOL</P>


funny story:</P>


I told my ex-wife about the wire thing and "somehow" forgot to tell her about the shock thing .....it turned out to be a wire, she got shocked and in reflex stood up real fast, whacked her head on the hood which raised it to a point where the prop fell over and as it fell it kinda broke her finger.</P>


Then again....she is the one that got the house in the divorce.....serves her right....<IMG src=smileys/smiley4.gif border="0"></P><edited><editID>WhiteHawk</editID><editDate>37840.5123958333</editDate></edited>
