Being a kid and knowing that everything had to be plugged in to work, i.e., TV, radio, etc., I went through a phase where all I did was try to find where I plugged in to the world and got my power. The best I could figure was that I had plugs on my feet that hooked into the ground, but every time I jumped they hid. I never could figure out why my plugs hid though.
