I thought for a second you went to a bar and picked up more than you bargained for.

Describe the "tugging"? Like a back and forth movement?

I never heard the term "tug" before. No idea what that means.

Is the TV cable adjusted properly?

You have a sick mind -- I like that.

It seems like this thread is deteriorating rapidly. Maybe we need an IBTL...
