No reason not to do both.

But make sure you don"t curse unti the candle is lit.....


I have a joke candle that looks like a regular candle, white, tapered, very
nice. Only problem is you can't KEEP it lit! 5 seconds after you take
away the flame that got it burning....it goes out by itself.....(c;]

The wax cannot sustain its own ignition. It will burn about 5 seconds
before the heat available goes below the flashpoint of that wax.

It really is funny to watch them light it.....


That's like the opposite of those birthday cake candles that won't blow
out...only did that to one of our kids and it was so sad we decided
never to use them again...

When I was a kid, I put a huge, hairy, fake spider under my mom's dinner
napkin on April 1st. She was NOT happy with me.

When I was a kid you could ask the grocer for a tarantula. They came
in with the bananas. Now they are about 25 bucks at the pet shop.

fumigate the fruit, and the spiders are 25 bucks at the pet shop.
