Candle Power Flashlight Forum

I was sitting next to the mail box sipping a coke and watching the silver birds flying to the airport in the distance, wondering which one was carrying my new love. Suddenly our mailman came around the corner and headed my way. Could today be the day? He leaned out of his truck and held out a package...hey Ken, got something for you from CCrane. Trying to control my trembling hands(I did not want him to see my excitement as I had read a post from another of our members whom warned how these Santa Claus mailmen can turn on innocent flashlighters and start name calling) I reached out, resisting my urge to hug him, and took it. Thanks, have a good day. I waited for him to round the corner and made a beeline for the house. Stopping in the living room I ripped open the package and beheld my new beauty, the CCrane Expedition. I looked at the time-40 minutes till the wife gets home and spoils the moment. I grabbed her up, ran down the hall and into the bedroom, my little poodle Scooter following closely at my heels sensing something wondrous was about to happen. I closed the door hit the light switch and leapt on the bed. Slowly I turned the head until WOW! Here we are...! Deep in the jungles of South America at night. Just me, Scooter and my friends in this forum...the beam from the Expedition pouring out, lighting our way. Listen to the sounds...lions and tigers...oh my...things with teeth all over the place! Are we scared? Naw...not with this baby driving the darkness away. Look...over there...its a lost city...THE LOST CITY OF GOLD!!... LIT UP FROM END TO END!!??? Oops..sorry..wrong light (grabbed the Edwood Sun Blaster for a moment, back on track now). WOW!!...CHECK THIS ROOM OUT!!...LUSHES NAKED AMAZON WOMEN, ALL BECKONING ME TO THEM!!(unbelievable but its true)AND IN THE CENTER, THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH!! Hmm...taste a little funny...ITS BEER!! WHAT EVER BRAND YOU WANT!!...AND LOOK IN THIS ROOM...BEAUTIFUL RUBIES,SAPPHIRES AND EMERALDS sparkling brightly in the pure white beam this powerhouse puts out...hold on...they sure have funny shapes...GLASS INSULATORS!!!?? ARGH... SOMEONE MUST HAVE ALREADY BEEN HERE REVIEWING THIS LIGHT!!..Oh well, no point in going on about the light, guess I`ll just go back to the first room and QUIET...whats that horrible sound...keeeeen...keeen...Ken wake up. Why do you have that big smile on your face? Well...I was just dreaming of you. Well get up. I want to go to Wal-mart before the kids get home. Hmm...this might not be so bad, they have flashlights don`t they?
