OK, just how do I get this stuff past my wife?

[Dark Mantis]

  The same problem most of us have I'm afraid

[Dark Mantis]

Even if you get past the guard the electricity bill gives it away

[RichieC]

Don't show her the electricity Bill, You could just hide it a replace it with an older month's one. I'm sure they'd never cotton on.

[Dark Mantis]

What try and hide something from the old dragon?

[absic]

He's a braver man then me but we could try........

"Honest darling, I really have to have this liquid nitrogen and all the extra computer bits or my PC won't work and the electric bill really isn't that much bigger!"

I wonder....... 

[Dark Mantis]

Let us know how she takes it....if you survive of course

[absic]

Hey,

I was only kidding. 
My wife is Japanese and has a black belt in origami. She doesn't trust me with money and thinks that I already spend too much on PC and music gear.

Do you really believe that I, a mere mortal, could actually get anything past her? I'm sure she trained as a Ninja before we met and no matter how hard I try she always manages to find those little tell tale signs of a new purchase. 

[RichieC]

@DarkMantis : Lol. Well yeah I wouldn't try and go against that beast.

Well if your wife is trained as a ninja, a black belt of the dark arts, I would more be worried about your wellfare than your computer

Take your computer and RUN! Run! whilst you have the chance!

Dark Mantis goes outside looking to see where to install the liquid nitrogen tank(hidden)

You can borrow my shovel after I've finished digging! Not sure if I'm digging for the Nitrogen tank or to bury the missus though! 

[Dark Mantis]

Ah, digging for freedom

[Dark Mantis]

absic115, have you finished with that shovel yet? I take it the wife is still well? How big a LN2 tank are you putting in?

[absic]

Sorry, still waiting on the Council and Local School for permission. Got hold of an old LOX tank from NASA which is being shipped as we speak, it looks about 4" tall in the photograph so I don't think there will be too many problems with it.

The wife is OK but still confused. I am having trouble converting some of the chemical names and expressions into Japanese. I think, at the moment, she is under the impression that I am getting a big German Sausage that I am going to try and grow in the garden. Ah.....bless!
