I found...

My whip! Now don't go getting the wrong idea. It was purchased as part of a halloween costume...a circus ring leader costume. It was a work party. I kept it at my desk. Then someone asked if they could borrow it. It wasn't halloween anymore. Scary. Then it disappeared. I thought someone took it. Guess it was me!

The evil-doers better watch out! I'm armed now, and I've always been dangerous!!

Grrr Argh
