for a worry bead instead.We got to the point where she was doing the fillings and I nodded off to sleep while she had the big UV gun in my mouth, and I guess my grip must have loosened a little bit on my flashlight, because I remember vividly having a dream where I had just gotten a new laser drill and was watching a Public Service Announcement on the Four Rules of Laser Drill Safety, as formulated by that great laser drill safety pioneer, Mr. T.
Rule Number One was "Don't drop the drill, fool!"
Then I woke up. I had not dropped my flashlight. The drill in the dream was cool, though; it was a big chainsaw-looking thing (only without the cutting bar, of course) that shot out a red beam for as long as you held down the button, or you could use the button as an "on" toggle.

God, please tell me that Mr T gave you laser-safety instruction through the medium of '80s rap. That would be, frankly, epic.
Last night all I got was R. Lee Ermey yelling at me for not having the right army-kit and trying to make me get into a DC 3, headed for some unknown destination.
Feb 7th must be "scary badass invades your dreams and berates you" day.
Too Bad your Dream Drill is Banned in New York State....
Sweetheart, you have some really weird dreams. However, a laser chainsaw would be really, really cool.
Mr. T actually has a PhD in fool-pitying.
He seldom mentions it though, because he thinks Dr. T sounds pretentious.
It would be cool, Pawpaw, and much easier than a splitting axe but probably not as gratifying.

Sounds sorta like Cale's laser cutter from Titan A.E....

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN HAVING THESE DREAMS ?
WHAT DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THEM ?
WE NEED TO DELVE FURTHER HEEP A JOURNAL
Beats the one I just woke from. WWIII was happening, and I... did not survive. Me and a handful of other ghosts or revenants or whatever we were began to try & rebuild a civilization in the ruins.
I should point out that the hand (handS!) held laser mining drill is widely used on the Hidden Frontier and the guy who did the standard safety video does slightly resemble Mr. T.
"Don't drop the drill, fool!"
He's got the cybernetic shins to demonstrate why, too.
I got one of those lights and it gave me nothing but problems. Ended up throwing it into the garbage disassembled in case somebody found it and tried to use the thing.
Anyway glad it's worked out well for you.
Ryan,
Really? That sucks. :(
I've had this one in my jeans pocket for months now and use it daily with no complaints.
