beware loose parts

A couple of weeks ago, my wife got up early in the morning to wash clothes. 
Our laundry room is in the basement, which is also where our garage is. Now at 
the bottom of the stairs is a large box of parts, which has been sitting there 
for way too long but it was still there. And what does she do? She kicks the 
box and breaks her little toe. Nasty looking. Well, that evening, after 
watching her hobble around all day, I thought it would be a good idea to take 
some 
action, if I still wanted to save my parts and lbcs from a woman's wrath. So 
after some serious thought, here's what I did and it might save some future 
lbc'er some of the same trouble I created. As you open the door to the basement 
I 
put up a sign the says "WARNING BOX AHEAD", after a couple of steps, I put one 
up that said "LOOK OUT FOR THE BOX" and 3 steps before the box, one that said 
"THREE STEPS TO THE BOX !" and finally a sign right above the box that said 
"BOX!!!!!". The next morning I was roused from my warm bed and was told that I 
would be sleeping with those parts, if she could have carried them. However 
she did not kick the box again, so the signs work!!!!!!
Did you all know that Irish setters snore?
