An excerpt from “Taser Stupid” in “Tales from a Carolina Crazy”:
“What happened next is almost beyond description, Dennis was sitting there alone, Fluffy, his cat, looking on with her head cocked to one side as to say, ‘don’t do it...’ reasoning that a one second burst from such a tiny little ole thing couldn’t possibly hurt all that bad. He decided to give himself a one second burst just for the hell of it. He touched the prongs to his naked thigh, pushed the button and….HOLY MOTHER OF …!@*! WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION!!’”
