When two-slice toasters are outlawed, only outlaws will have two-slice toasters!

[lexington minuteman 1775]

was she toasted at the time of the incident? i notice she owned a bar?

[My2Cents]

She's toast.

[MD_Willington_1976]

If she used a 4 slice toaster she would have finished him off in half the time...

[exnavy]

Makes me think of that scene in the movie "Scroodged" where the ghost of christmas present hits Bill Murray with the toaster.

[stanz]

No, he's toast.

[Hodar]

Perhaps if there were a 'Cooling off' period between the time you buy a toaster and take it home?

[Ken522]

The article as written doesn't mention a motive for the murder. Any of you Aggies know?

[EODGUY]

Ummmmmm.....are the ages in the article correct? He was 63 and she was 29?

Just another example of why small appliances should be registered.

[Stefan Stackhouse]

Kinda places the stereotypical Toaster-as-wedding-gift in a different light, doesn't it?

[keats5]

My dear ole' dad once shot an oven.

We put a refrigerator magnet over it to hide the hole.

[Tijeras_Slim]

When they bury him will it be a "wide slot"?

[doug from upland]

Well, I'm up for a new FReep cause --- Toasters to Hillary.

[Ronin]

"Honey!!!

How many times do I gotta tell ya. I like my toast done LIGHTLY!!! Can't you unnnerstand ENGLISH??? I said LIGHTLY done.... Not like this carbonized mess of...

Hey... Whaddaya think yer doing with that.... Put that down.....

Honey??? HONEY?????

[mombonn]

I wonder how recently he took out a big insurance policy, and titled everything he owned over to her?

[DainBramage]

"I was just sick of his damn loafing."

[Billthedrill]

Well, I hope nobody takes this as an optimal appproach to relationship management. There are far more appropriate methods - yes, you can kill a bear with a .22LR but you'd be a fool to try it deliberately. Same thing here.

Do NOT attempt to cave in your spouse's head with a 2-slice toaster. Brain him with a microwave, minimum.

[Thisiswhoweare]

I guess it wasn't enough when the best man made a toast at the wedding...

[waterstraat]

No one NEEDS a "two" slice toaster.

Two slice toasters can "kill". If all you want to do is toast bread, a single slice toaster will do the job, without the danger of anyone getting killed.

[Campion]

How many innocent Americans must be killed by these inexpensive, readily-available toasters before we apply some common sense and ban these Monday Morning Specials?
