So one of my chores today on my “vacation” was to change out the over the range microwave. Not a problem, easy 20 minute project right? Well no, damn near burned the place down.

I’m smart so I put some towels over the glass top range so I don’t scratch it. I’m dumb because I didn’t turn the breaker off for the range and at some point my very tiny belly must have turned on one of the eyes. Got done and slave master said she was taking me out for a treat, after I got out of the shower I thought I smelled something burning. Yep, I was so excited about getting a treat I didn’t take the towels off the stovetop. So naked man runs smoldering towels out to the deck to save the day. I didn’t get a treat.

She probably thought you intended to burn the place down since you were being so pissy about your honey do list.

I appreciate you saved the day. I am excited imagining you doing it naked.

As per our custom...pics or it didn't happen.

WARNING FOR ALL MALES FROM ME
Last weekend I saw something at The Gun Show that sparked my interest. I was looking for a little something different for my wife Dana. What I came across was a 100,000-volt, pocket/purse-sized Tazer.
The effects of the Tazer were supposed to be short lived, with no long term adverse affect on your assailant, allowing her adequate time to retreat to safety...??
WAY TOO COOL! Long story short, I bought the device and brought it home.. I loaded two AAA batteries in the darn thing and pushed the button. Nothing! I was disappointed I learned, however, that if I pushed the button and pressed it against a metal surface at the same time, I'd get the blue arc of electricity darting back and forth between the prongs.
AWESOME!!! Unfortunately, I have yet to explain to Dana what that burn spot is on the face of her microwave.
Okay, so I was home alone with this new toy, thinking to myself that it couldn't be all that bad with only two AAA batteries, right?
There I sat in my recliner, my cat Leo looking on intently (trusting little soul) while I was reading the directions and thinking that I really needed to try this thing out on a flesh & blood moving target.
I must admit I thought about zapping Leo (for a fraction of a second) and then thought better of it. He is such a sweet cat. But, if I was going to give this thing to my wife to protect herself against a mugger, I did want some assurance that it would work as advertised.
Am I wrong?
So, there I sat in a pair of shorts and a singlet with my reading glasses perched delicately on the bridge of my nose, directions in one hand, and Tazer in another.
The directions said that:
a one-second burst would shock and disorient your assailant;
a two-second burst was supposed to cause muscle spasms and a major loss of bodily control; and
a three-second burst would purportedly make your assailant flop on the ground like a fish out of water.
Any burst longer than three seconds would be wasting the batteries.
All the while I'm looking at this little device measuring about 5" long, less than 3/4 inch in circumference (loaded with two itsy, bitsy AAA batteries); pretty cute really, and thinking to myself, 'no possible way!'
What happened next is almost beyond description, but I'll do my best.
I'm sitting there alone, the cat looking on with his head cocked to one side so as to say, 'Don't do it stupid,' reasoning that a one second burst from such a tiny lil ole thing couldn't hurt all that bad.. I decided to give myself a one second burst just for heck of it.
I touched the prongs to my naked thigh, pushed the button, and...
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD. WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION. WHAT THE... !!!
I'm pretty sure Hulk Hogan ran in through the side door, picked me up in the recliner, then body slammed us both on the carpet, over and over and over again. I vaguely recall waking up on my side in the fetal position, with tears in my eyes, body soaking wet, both nipples on fire, testicles nowhere to be found, with my left arm tucked under my body in the oddest position, and tingling in my legs! The cat was making meowing sounds I had never heard before, clinging to a picture frame hanging above the fireplace, obviously in an attempt to avoid getting slammed by my body flopping all over the living room.
Note:
If you ever feel compelled to 'mug' yourself with a Tazer,
one note of caution:
There is NO such thing as a one second burst when you zap yourself! You will not let go of that thing until it is dislodged from your hand by a violent thrashing about on the floor!
A three second burst would be considered conservative!
A minute or so later (I can't be sure, as time was a relative thing at that point), I collected my wits (what little I had left), sat up and surveyed the landscape.
· My bent reading glasses were on the top of the TV.
· The recliner was upside down and about 8 feet or so from where it originally was.
· My triceps, right thigh and both nipples were still twitching.
· My face felt like it had been shot up with Novocain, and my bottom lip weighed 88 lbs.
· I had no control over the drooling.
· Apparently I had crapped in my shorts, but was too numb to know for sure, and my sense of smell was gone.
· I saw a faint smoke cloud above my head, which I believe came from my hair.
I'm still looking for my testicles and I'm offering a significant reward for their safe return!
PS: My wife can't stop laughing about my experience, loved the gift and now regularly threatens me with it!

You wanna talk idiot..Iam your man, Bout burnt my Mom's house down as a kid.
Threw a Pizza Hut pizza leftover , non sans box, for heating in an oven. Of course it caught fire and smoke was filling the house.
So my reaction was to remove such fire and smoke and discard out through the dining room and throw on the concrete pati just a dozen steps away
Dang box fell apart as I carried it across the kitchen and into the dining room as I tried to discard.
Had fire on the floor in the kitchen and dining room and somehow on the wall in the dining room leading to the patio.
Panic time so bust out the FE..sure enough that blast threw flaming box everywhere.

I am not being hyperbolic, but that was nuts.

Afterwards my only thought..how do I make this seem like it never happened when my Mom gets home. That FE discharge was everywhere and cleaned that up, it wasn't possible to hide the fire damage..which really wasn't bad. Burns on wall, kitchen floor damage which was very minor, wood floor damage on dining room which had to be replaced entirely, and repaint of patio flooring.

I may be an idiot..my Mom still loves me.

This was funny. It sounds like the makings of a quality scene from a comedic movie.

My head says Bama.

UT 34
Bama 42

It's hard to believe that I'm more optimistic than most in here (I guess there really is a first time for everything), but here's my prediction:

Vols 38
Bama 27

This is a really rough game to call...

I think it ends one of two ways. Either one of the two gets blown out and its over by halftime or it's decided by less than a FG in the last two minutes.

I had a Pastor in Alabama (yes Gump fan) tell me today that he’s worried and doesn’t have a good feeling about the game. I said maybe it’s a sign from the big guy.
