Sometimes it's better to do, and beg forgiveness, than to beg permission and be denied.

I'm with Doc here; and if you really want to ramp things up, you could combine a couple of other threads by using a pair of cordless drills, and make it into an awesome drift machine while you're at it.....
(Didn't I have a super coupon from Harbor Freight around here somewhere????? Hmmm...)

That trains out of the station... 
He knows he mustn't, she knows he knows he mustn't, and we know she knows he knows... (should I go on?)
So Chris, best thing to do.. remove the evidence!
Lou.. after Doc removed the evidence, wait a week or two and go for it

Repeat after me-
"I'm sorry, I'm a man. I messed up. Hey honey- What did you do with your hair? You look really good!"
Problem solved.

I've only had mixed luck with that.... It's one of the reasons I'm still single...

It's been fine-tuned over my years of marriage. Originally, the "hair" line was "What's for dinner?" Results varied from Mission Accomplished, to me vying for space in the doghouse, with the dog usually winning the battle. What is it about dog food that it smells like that after being processed by a dog, anyhow?!?!?

As an addition to my above post (small thread jack in progress), I used to work for a small company, where the owners listed the wife as the principal owner, because the husband was already the part owner of another buisiness.
The husband (my actual boss, based on the work we were doing) was trying to read me the riot act to cover his ***, because he had lost my time slips for a week. His wife, a full CPA, and I had already sorted out the issue, and put into place our own system to cover it in the future....
So, while he's trying to rip me a new one as a warning, "....You better make sure you have all of your paperwork in on time, or ****(wife's name) is going to hunt you down and kill you!!!!", I just turned around, and pointed out, that as just an employee, I had considerably more legal protection that he did as her husband........
That was the only job I've ever had where I had a company credit card; because I actually only used it for the business, nothing else, it was always the first one to get paid off in full.
At one point, we had to broker a machinery sale where we had to cover over $75,000.00 to make it happen for a good customer; "G", the wife used my card to back it. That scared the
out of me; when I asked her why she didn't use either of theirs, she said that she only used hers for office supplies and to pay our company cell phone bills, hence it basically never got used. Her husband had used his for almost nothing company related (making more work for her), so she dragged out the payments at just the bare monthly minimums.
Since I used mine for only shop business, with receipts, it was always the first to get paid down, or totally off. It really scared me to find out I had a piece of plastic in my pocket that had a low six figure credit rating, with the available ceiling to match...

You just had to say it, didn't you????
Um, Chris? Are you saying that you actually want to know about the inner workings of your dog's lower GI tract? (Ohhhh, I think i'm gonna barf.....)

Actually, no. I just can't help but wonder why it seems to go in her mouth, cruise around Cleveland, and then finally exit, some months later. Or at least I THINK it's months. Something THAT funky HAD to ripen awhile...
Have you ever smelled dog food before it's processed by a dog?
Certainly! And it just doesn't seem to matter whether it's your garden variety canned crap (perhaps literally) or the nifty human-grade stuff we feed her usually. I swear there's a nuclear element to the process...
Meat has to rot in order to gain the nutrients
first thing that forms is hydrogen sulphide inside the stomach (H2S - rotten eggs)
then, after a little while together with some methane, skatole(C9H9N) and indole(C8H7N) are formed inside the bowel,
and that's the odor you're talking about.
you can order samples to verify; but honestly.. you do not want that
