Reminds me of a buddy I used to go to gun shows with. He'd buy a rifle, and w
hen his wife wasn't home he'd put it in his safe with the rest and not talk
about it. The next time we went to the range he'd bring it out, and she'd ask
"where'd you get that one?" He'd reply he had it quite some time, and it was
sitting in the back of the safe. He wasn't exactly lying about it :)
