Loaned a light
on: May 05, 2012, 03:00:38 AM
Today a friend of mine asked to borrow my light. This isn't your normal flashlight. It's my burn your eyes out torch. Anyway he had to go to another building to get parts. There is no light or electricity there. When he brought my light back he said "damn that things bright, it lit up the whole building". I said I know that's why I built it. It's nice when you help someone :).
If I remember correctly, wait, what was I saying?

No I was cool with it and the guy I loaned it to. He's been a friend of mine for going on 5 years. Besides if I didn't trust him I wouldn't have loaned it. He's an older guy and we play quake online together. I didn't want him to hurt himself there either. The light can be replaced/rebuilt, but a friend is hard to come by.

Plus more expensive to rebuild; last time it was done, it cost the government $6 million, and that was decades ago.  :o

It is funny how the 1st thing people will do if you give them a light is to look into it... then point it into someone elses eyes..

at least my daughter has the excuse of being too young to know better, grown adults should know better and yet don't seem to be able to help themselves. ::)

I was showing someone my 3300L, and the first thing they tried to do was look in the end... I slapped it out of their hand yelling "do you want to go blind!?"
