Dual Controls, the Electric Blanket From Hell...
This is a true story, a legend in the family, as related by my favorite aunt and
uncle awhile back. It happened, I'm not smart enough to make something this
bizarre and humorous up....So, strap in,.....Here we go!...!!!...
"If you want,
to stay warm at night...
Just get an electric blanket,
They're "out of sight"!!
You can turn down,
The house's temp...
And still cuddle up warm,
In spite of the winter's
Cold hearted contempt...
But if you get one blanket,
With dual controls,
For husband and wife,
And even if, you have, a very long life,
Make sure you understand,
All the blanket's dial setting roles...
See, my aunt and my uncle,
On one cold winter's night...
Went to bed together,
And turned off the light...
They set their controls,
The way that they did like,
But trouble soon brewed,
They were fast approaching...
More than one "yike"!!!!!
