Caveat: armed and ready to blow

Yesterday Art and I drove to East Portland to see his tax accountant – not so much for him, as for me, since I need a new tax accountant, and I have some issues to resolve because I haven't behaved properly with the US tax authority (IRS) since my cancer surgery, 5 years ago.

So we drove there in Juli's Prius (the hybrid electric car). We were parked there, and I noticed this flashing red light blinking on the car's dashboard, after turning the car off. I didn't know what it was.

"What is that flashing red indicator on the dash?" I asked Arthur.

He said, "System is armed and ready to blow!" Not even the hint of a smile. 

I said, "Oh. Okay… that'll help us out a lot."

Arthur's personality is still the same.
