    You have to remove yourself from the gene pool to receive such an honour. We'll have to verify he hasn't already gone and had kids =)

    This isn't an isolated incident. My brother inlaw hooked himself up after building his new house. Then he had the gall to smash his meter, claim it was an accident and have hydro replace it.

    In hindsight it's probably a good thing he didn't end up like this nimrod.
