CAN’T KEEP IT ON
Just before Christmas a woman went out and invested in a new vacuum cleaner. She immediately went to try out her new appliance. She plugged the electric marvel into the nearest extension cord and turned it on. It ran great for a couple of seconds, then, without warning, shut off again. Then the vacuum started again, then went off again. It kept doing this. The woman was quite upset! She had spent a lot of money for this vacuum and expected one that ran. She decided to pack up the vacuum cleaner and return it for a full refund. When she went to unplug the vacuum cleaner, she found, to her dismay that she had plugged her vacuum cleaner into the cord that was attached to her Christmas tree light-blinker switch.
