I remember a guy that had a story involving a truck, a gun, and a bucket. People laughed for ages, but when one stopped to visualize it................. But we all will remember it. That dude should repost that story for the new folks

BIG mistake.
Dave Barry wrote in one of his stories about a friend who suggested that for a quick touch -up you could cut a piece of 2x4 the same length as the width of the vacuum cleaner, attach some rope to the ends and drag it across the carpeting to get the same effect (the lines left in the carpet) without the bother of having to deal with the electrical cord and the hose
