                   Lock, stock and two trumpeting elephants

So Rob [1] and I are at CompUSA [2] when we come across a joystick and car
wheel display.

Rob starts playing with it—suddenly we hear tires squealing and what sounds
like a wounded elephant trampling a car. The steering wheel controller starts
bucking wildly about.

“Cool!” said Rob.

I grab one of the joysticks and pull the trigger. Instantly a gun fires and
the joystick kicks back.

“Cool!” I said.

I try the joystick next to it. Same reaction. I grab both and starting firing
two fisted.

Rob starts poking buttons on the steering wheel.

Joysticks and wheels are bucking, guns are firing, tires screeching,
elephants trumpeting and customers are staying as far away as possible.

We have entirely too much fun.
