Not me. I give the 'gift to humanity' back to its parents, and leave...

True story: My family was so surprised I was so happy to leave their kids.

Ahh, I said, I get to wind them up, caffeine, candy, chocolates, spooky movies, spastic running around...

And I get to LEAVE!!! They have to put up with their caffeinated, hyper-spawn for the rest of the day, and night.

I get to go home, and sleep through the night. Zzzzzz...

Without blocking his phone number (as if it's permanently blocked anyway).

He was arrested when he got to the airport, according to the article reporting on his brilliant idea!

DOH!!!

And he was surprised.

Yikes...
