Electrical Genious

I never knew that electrical stuff could be so much fun... Ever since I was a kid (3 or so) and stuck my finger holding a plastic (good conductor) airplane propeller (the perfect size) in an outlet and landed myself in the hospital for a week, I though that electricity and things related to it were BAD. Now, however, we are wired to have more speakers than we could ever dream of. If I am feeling the need to read a good book, I can turn on the classical and retreat to the parbrary. Or, if Jason is wanting to listen to his Celine Dion in private, he can turn it on in the sitting room where no one will know... Plus, our entertainment has a "home base". There are a bazillion wires to this thing. We might have to get one of those mega-touch-screen-lazy-butt universal controllers that can practically read your mind and turn on what you want without you even knowing yet that you wanted it.

Ok, so Jason informed that I failed Materials Science 101- Plastic is a bad conductor, it's actually an insulator. It must have been all the slimy kid spit on the propeller that led the current right to my hand.

Hey Amy it's your cousin Ben... My folks as well as your dad are checking out the house pics and wondering what exactly is a parbrary? If your reading this and can answer this for us we are on Manor Drive for the weekend. Either way, hope all is well, the place looks great!
