I do like Christmas lights, but they only last until the squirrels
are done chewing on the wires.


"Done", as in "thoroughly cooked"?

It would break your mother's heart if she knew you liked Christmas lights..


When I was 13 I reasoned that if you got a whole bunch of extension
cords and plugged them into various different outlets in the house,
then wired them all in series you could achieve infinite
possibilities. That was only topped by the 120.0 V to 6.0 volt step
down transformer I tried to wind on the metal frame of my bed. The
schematic showed 8 turns on the primary and 2 on the secondary.
Couldn't figure out why I lit up he room.....Lenny
