Good God Awmighty!   :o The urge to listen to the radio must have been strong in this inventor. He shoulda waited until the transistor was invented.   ::)

You can keep your sense of adventure, I'll just be happy with my non-scalded scrotum.

So, uh, KU, did I get this one right?  It could mean dominance over MG, a status to which I aspire daily..... :o :P ;)



BTW, "the Scalded Scrotums" would be a great name for a band.
