Gosh, I just wanna get on the dance floor with my wife again.
Well, anyway, thank you for posting,

During your trial ! Take HEED to these PROFOUND words of
wisdom !

....
When you come home, with all that tape all over your back......
put ONE more bit of tape where your cord is dangling as an extra measure of 'reinforcement' against thy elements that will jump out at you as you pass by .....doorknobs......ect.....
I can guaranteeeee you will snag your cord!!! That extra reinforcement you placed there will make you feel like Einstein didn't have a CLUE when it came to true wisdom....

Believe me.
P.S. You WILLL dance with your wife again !
Without a doubt.......
