We'll have to talk.

YOu don't have to lock them, but if someone's creepy enough to steal one, he might be creepy enough to steal one without checking it to see if it opens.
Thrift stores, yard sales, the usual suspects.

Robotland? Is it really you? Where have you been!!?
Altoid tins are wonderfully handy. They remind me of tiny cigar boxes.. now something cigar box sized, but metal, could be very useful.

Would you mind letting him out more often? We miss him.

At first I thought you meant raw bacon and that's just not right at all. How about a crack baggy of bacon, some pain reliever, and powdered electrolytes? Almost a hangover kit...
I'm looking forward to hearing about your effigy! You're a great boss so I doubt you'll have any serious problems.

Even better: grind all that up in a blender to make a fine powder. I mean the bacon, pain reliever and electrlytes. Of course one can already buy powdered electrolytes and pain reliever ... now that I think of it, crunched-up bacon as well. Just in case, throw it all in the blender on "liquefy" or whatever the highest setting is for about an hour.

Maybe powdered Gatorade instead of a generic electrolyte.
At least powdered Gatorade (and Kool-Ade) is flammable. Non dairy creamer is a fucking bomb.
