Red Kool-Aid crystals are good in a shower head as well for horror movie buffs.

i once connected a 100 watt light bulb on one output of my Hafler 500 instead of a speaker.

the bulb did light up, but a bit weak; i then increased the vol. level and after less than a minute, a fuse in the Hafler blew up; 15 amp rated fuse.
i used a 60 Hz sinewave for that, and once the fuse replaced, no problem with the amp.

i also tried it playing organ music.
the light intensity would follow the music...

no cheese smell, but some would say i'm a cheese head, right?

I'm still waiting for the person that said they stuck their tongue in a light bulb receptacle and pulled the chain.

I am actually picturing more along the lines of a mad audio scientist.

Cat - you just gave me that 9V battery taste on my tongue and an immediate twitch! crazy

Does that mean you are also a Packers fan?

Personally, I like Nickelback but at some point that I missed, it became cool to hate them. Love em or hate em, kudos to them for being willing to make fun of themselves in response to the Packers petition.

Just mildly funny and some language definitely NSFW but I thought it would spark some discussion.
NIckleback responds to NFL petition.

One thing we all can agree on, Chad always has the worst hair cuts. ALWAYS!
