4/Oct/18 fee fii foo fum who's been outside on my deck

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

It's customer service week at work for the Big Guy and Tonya.  They won two prizes so far.  They have won this car neck pillow.  Which will probably be left behind some where and guess who will find it very tasty...  yes, that would be me.  Then, yesterday a candle.  Not that the Big Guy is big on candles, but he wants the jar it comes in.

He can be funny like that.  He see's something and then sees the other purpose for it.

Normally candles are used for "ambiance" when sitting at a table.  Since the invention of the electric light bulb, they no longer really use candles for light, but merely for decoration.  

What does the Big Guy see, when he looks at a candle?

He sees the power going out and now having an alternate source of light.

Now, this candles also came in a mason jar.  

So now it has two purposes.  Not just the fact that it's a candle, but that it's a drinking glass once the candle as been used and burnt up.

Also, the other thing that caught his eye with this candle...  it comes with a metal lid.  So now he's envisioning, he's in the back yard, having a bon fire, having a drink.  But since his glass has a lid, now, none of the little flying insects can take a drink from HIS drink.

There is some sort of joke on the internet about a Scotsman yelling at a mosquito.  He's got the mosquito pinned down after the mosquito flew into his drink and took a sip.  The Scotsman is slapping the mosquito on the back, yelling, GIVE IT BACK!  I know, I know, it's lost something in the translation here, but I know the Big Guy found it funny.
