Re: You KNOW You\'re A Flashoholic When...

You know you are a flashaholic when you read this list and don't find ANY of it funny.

You also know it when in the middle of the night, you wake up your wife to ask if she notices anything new, and without even opening her eyes, she says "you have a new flashlight."

...when your case of batteries has the only horizontal surface in your house with nothing sitting on top of it... or when you look behind the box and there is a pile of broken vases and knick-knacks back there from constantly lifting the lid to get more batteries.

Hmmm... need some batteries for this light... CRASH!!! tinkle tinkle gotta remember "no Ming vase on top of the battery box"

...when you haven't used the table lamps at each end of the couch for over a year...

...in order to read a wall clock, you shine a flashlight at it instead of turning on the regular light...

...when you hear "123" and wonder what price they are selling for.
...when you know what HID stands for.
...when you buy PDA screen protector by the gross and don't own a PDA.

...when like clockwork you make regular visits to the Wal-Marts and K-Marts and every hardware and sporting goods store within a several mile radius, just in case soem new kind of flashlight comes in that you don't have yet.

...when you have all your flashlight, bulb, battery, and charger deliveries made to your work address in order to preserve the peace on the home front.

You find a couple of odd sized batteries so you go out and buy a flashlight for them.

...when planning for a trip you ask where all the best flashlight stores are.

when Gregg at Bright Guy calls you to tell you what just came in

when Lambda, Dan Ramsey and wayne block your email

when the receptionist at various mfgrs doesnt even bother putting you through to customer service, but right through to engineering

when you name all your kids PK

... when you wish you could meet with like-minded others in a room and say:

"Hi, my name's Mark. I'm a flashaholic."

... and it wouldn't be misunderstood as the admission of an exhibitionist.

Actually by denying it, that should make one a closet flashoholic.

So, ya see, if one is a Flashoholic, they're an "F"

then if one's a Closet Flashoholic, they are a "CF"

and if one admits to being a Closet Peeping Flashoholic, one is a...

CPF !!!

(sorry, my afternoon meds have not yet kicked in)
