The wife was cleaning near my workbench where I had a gun I was working on (looking into new bump fire technologies) ..and shot me with twice (I guess the bump fire works!).
Luckily, I had the gun loaded with blanks ... but they still stung like heck !
She promptly blamed me of course "I thought your rule was 'Every gun on the workbench must not have live rounds in them.'". I told her that I don't consider blanks to be "live ammo".
And she sucked up a specialty milled part I made w/the vacuum too so I had to go through the vacuum to recover it.
So she almost Brendan Lee'd me....luckily the blanks I make are especially designed to avoid that...seems like they did just that.
So a cautionary tale : don't let the wife near your workbench ! Is the moral to be taken out of this.
