That’s really kind of impressive… that kind of resourcefulness coupled with complete ignorance isn’t something you see every day.

The trouble isn’t with us men. The trouble is that when the solution involves the application of a lead pipe to the cranium of a ‘moran’ there are legal repercussions we must first consider.

I suppose you might make them sign a waiver — acknowledging that they’ve been briefed on the risks and disclaiming any warranty whatsoever.
