Was I the only one thinking "He is going to break that bulb just to p*** them all off..."?

I could just picture that, and then seeing them all scramble out of the room, opening windows, trying to find a jar and duct tape. Maybe THAT would have driven the point home.

I also have a mouth full of amalgam fillings...and they all need to be replaced because they're breaking my teeth. I'm about to get the second group of fillings replaced. (doing 3 fillings at a time)

I want to get rid of all the mercury that might be floating around in me. I need to ask my doctor to test me for mercury to see just how much I've got floating around.

Dont forget the TWO Ziploc baggies. (Ziploc must have magic properties...since it keeps people's 2oz bottles of shampoo from mysteriously exploding on the airplanes)

I wonder if it's a conspiracy between the light bulb companies, and the makers of Duct Tape and Ziplocs to make more money.

I'm guessing it's 3M..They're poised to take over the world.
