Don’t try any funny stuff

Standing around with friends reeling off best madcap pranks: Caulking drawers shut, freezing all the mechanic’s tools in a five-gallon bucket of water, etc. I didn’t have any of my own so I trotted out my dad’s: putting a bunch of food coloring in the hot water heater, shutting off the electricity and painting the windows black. But this joke is pretty good, too, and Erik, the jokee, is kind for allowing the rest of us to enjoy it, even though he usually gets to be the funny one: e.g.,Living to Be 200. Hm, I forget, is it better to use i.e. or e.g. in that construction? Ah, well. Why am I using latin abbreviations in my blog posts anyway?
