Kids just love Barney, right?
My buddy Mike was leaving early in the morning for a long drive to his new college home. His sister sneaked his car keys, and while he was sleeping, a friend and I gave him a going-away present at about 3 a.m.. We altered the new stereo system I had installed the previous week. We disconnected the signal and amp turn-on leads from the radio, wired the remote to the ignition, and hid a Walkman cassette player, also connected to the ignition and set on continuous play, beneath the carpet under the back seat. So now, whenever his car was running?regardless of what button or switch he hit on the radio?his stereo would play whatever cassette we put in that Walkman at 75 percent of full volume. We put a time delay on everything so he would be at least 45 minutes out of town before the thing went off. So, about two-to-three hours after he'd left, he was back at our doorstep, yelling and whatnot. My friend and I thought he would feel cool listening to the Barney theme song over and over at excessive volume. (The stereo consisted of two 12-inch subs, four six-and-a-halfs with about 600 watts of power.) Gee, guess we were wrong.
