Fixing brake switch in a pinch

I discovered last night that my brake lights weren't working. I'd had this
happen before due to an inline fuse in the footwell blowing (I don't know
why it was there, maybe the car previously had cruise control or
something). I checked the fuse and the one in the electrical compartment
and they were both fine. The switch itself was dead.
So luckily I have DMC Joe's courtesey light circut cutoff switch. The
wires are long enough that I could run it down to the brake switch wiring
and control it with my right thumb while braking and downshifting. Luckily
I'll have a replacement switch tomorrow.
