h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I did something today I've never done before and hopefully will never manage to do again.

I gave my tongue an electric shock by accident!

(Thankfully it was only 12 volts.) I wonder if it has any long term effects?

So strange I felt moved to share it.

Go on then, how did you manage that? Were you eating the lamps from the houses??

You're closer to the truth than you could possibly know!

I bit a wire to strip back the insulaton but I forgot to un-plug it first. Doh!

That's quite scary! If you'd like, I could post you some wire strippers, save you some bother?

Thanks for the offer but I prefer to run the risk, it makes work marginally more exciting. I'd defy any priest not to make the congregation laugh at the funeral eulogy of a person who died biting a dolls house.

uh, OK then, if you're sure!

It would probably make headline news, and make people laugh all over the world - thats my idea of dying in style Clearly yours too

I was watching the first episode of _The Day Today_ today, and there's a bit where Chris Morris grabs a live cable and electrocutes himself by shoving it in his mouth.

It just kinda reminded me of this little tale!
