Actually I think any wand will give you the "tingling feeling" message
if it has no target. This includes Drain Life (but you don't lose
hit points), Magic Missle, Confuse Monster as well as others. Staffs like
Ice, Fire, etc.  WILL fire because they can bounce and nail *you*.
Either way, you will lose one charge. In case anybody doesn't know yet
a "tingling feeling" also happens when you read a scroll of Food
Detection and there is no food on the level.
