I'm in the office doing some work and chicky has the tv on in the room
next door. In my office I have an old 400 watt stereo with a 250 watt
subwoofer.

I flipped on iTunes, hit the power button, and BOOM! SONIC BOMB!

About once a month my 2yo old son turns it wide open when it isn't on.

I'm still jumpy.

I always liked the beginnning of the Cars "Lets go"...it kinda shakes
you up like that if you crank it and are not ready.

Used to be my favorite trick when cars had radios with manual/analog

This reminds of the time when I was a kid, and I wrapped a rubber band around the kitchen sink hose
sprayer, so that the next person to turn the sink on was going to get blasted with water. I was expecting
that person to be my big brother. However, my dad abruptly came home early to change quickly into a
business suit for an important meeting. My dad became the victim right after he had changed into his
suit.

My butt still hurts.

Indeed....we called that "rigging the car" IIRC. Used to do that all
the time.
