But...all this talk of guns and watches makes me think of a great old story.....
One time two kids - Tony and Hymie - were hanging out together. Tony Looks over and says, "Hey Hymie - what's that on your wrist?"
Hymie replies, "Why, it's my new Rolex. I got it for my Bar Mitzvah."
Tony can't keep his eyes off it. A few minutes later, Hymie spies something in Tony's coat pocket. "Hey Tony - what's that in your pocket?"
Tony replies, "Oh, it's my new chrome .38 Special. I got it for my Confirmation."
Hymie is fascinated by it.
A few minutes go by and they each blurt out "Wanna trade?"
That night, as Tony get ready for dinner, his father notices the sparkly watch.
"Hey Tony - what's that you got there?" he asks.
Tony shows him and tell him "I traded Hymie my .38 for it!"
Tony's father is dismayed.
"Tony, Tony!", he cries, "Some day you gonna be rich and powerful like your old man. Some day you're gonna live in a fancy house with a beautiful wife like your old man. Then one day, you're gonna come home to your fancy house and find your beautiful wife in bed with another man"
Tony's father holds out his right arm and starts jabbing at his wrist. "What are you gonna do Tony - yell "Hey -Time Out!!!!???"
