We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember "Nightjar \"cpb\"@"
"insertmysurnamehere saying something like:

Or a cheapy wall safe with a dummy double 13A socket on the front.
I discovered one by the simple expedient of trying to plug an extension
into it.
You'd think the makers would have left a bit of space behind the dummy
front so that the plug went right in.

Even better if it ran whatever was plugged into it.. However, I don't
think they are insurance company approved.

I suggested to the householder that I could fix it for him - the
fleeting look of panic on his face was interesting.
