I do have one of those Sears/Kenmore/Panasonic Vacuums that you guys are talking about and it does have different settings but the settings are for whether or not the floor/carpet attachment has its motor utilized or not. I have a crevice tool and a brush tool where the brush attachment can be removed and its just a round tool, I guess I could try using that along with a plastic bag attached to the end and a hole poked into the center of the bag where I could poke the pen through and then suck out the tool.

It's probably wedged in there a bit so maybe if you are able to get at it with a pick or exacto blade and loosen it it would come out easier. But you never know what bugs and stuff you'll vacuum out.

This is kinda crazy, we're on the fourth page of trying to remove a diddle stick from a transformer.

That's where the fun is.
Imagine one of those famous fights where two superfamous boxers would meet, and then one of them dropped within 10 seconds.
The public was highly displeased. Even if there was no arrangements in the fight.
The show cannot last but one round.
