My nightstand (Which I use as a desk) Had nothing I can clip a clip light onto on it so I had a good Idea. I took a TD bank Coin bank and attached the light to the slot of that so then it kept falling so I put a rock on it and now it stays up so I have a coin light rather than just using a flash light to see dates or straining my eyes. ( I stole it from my brothers room and he's in college remind me to put it back

He means that because your bro doesn't have a lamp, he is going to have to use a flashlight to study for his tests/exams at the last minute (cramming).

It appears you have a rock on there to help hold it down. If that is, here is something to think about.
Your brother comes home. Sees what you did with his stuff. You still sleeping. He takes that rock and does something with it that will make you walk funny.

Where else can you talk about Frank Zappa, desk lamps and coins in the same place. By the amount of responses I would say it was certainly not too obscure a reference. Must be a bunch of us old folks around.
