I had a buddy when I was in the military, everybody called him Mr. Wizard because the guy was always coming up with really strange ideas. Some of them even WORKED! One of the ones that worked came about because his car got broken into 5 or 6 times in a month. Needless to say, the Wiz was angry. So he wento to Radio shack and bought a cheap alarm and a whole buttload of wires and relays and other things that I will never understand. A few days later a box arrived from Crutchfield containing one of those huge capacitors for stereos. Somehow, the crackhead in question wired all this crap up to the body panels of his car, then sat back and waited for his trap to spring. Apparently, it went something like this.1) Would-be thief breaks window.2) Alarm engages, causing many things to occur all at once, not the least of which is that big ol capacitor discharging, causing the metal body of the car to carry an electrical charge.3) Would-be thief, who is touching metal and standing on the ground, completes a circuit and begins to dance...violently.4) would-be thief lays down and goes to sleep to wait for police.5) police come and find Sleepy, then arrest Mr. Wizard for assault!!6) The Ryno laughs hysterically because he told Mr. Wizard this was a bad idea.
