Don’t you want to test it first?”

Everybody does that.  Where’s the excitement then?”

So many wires going here and there

More than what is needed right now, but you want to be ready for the future

Keep track of everything right up here in my big old brain

Except I forgot and now the smoke alarm is going off. Damn!

*a semi-fictitious tale. There was no smoke in my case. lol

Except the WhositwhatsitYouSitISittm was so cool otherwise
