here's my problem. when i was about...14?, i saw an episode of the old hitchcock tv show in which guy1 bet guy2 at a bar that at 12 or something the next day, guy2's lighter, which he has had for years and years, always dependable, would not light. if it did not light, then guy2 has to die. if it does light, guy2 gets a million dollars or something. so, guy2, thinking he's gonna make a quick buck, accepts the bet. right before he's about to try his lighter, my mom shuts off the tv and tells me i have school the next day and i gotta go to sleep. no!!! this has bugged me for years and years. everytime i remember it, i get annoyed.
has anybody seen this episode of hitchcock? does his lighter light? does the dude have to die? i swear, this episode caused me greater mental anguish than the dude who's life is on the line.
