F-ing power surge...

...damaged my home computer.
Posting will be resumed when I get some time to fix the machine.
Kind of expected I guess, Murphy's Law, ya know...

Poor computer. Now, if only real life was like a comic book, a power surge would make your computer super-powerful. It would go on a rampage and take over the world.

I wish it better.

Well, Murphy being the jerk he is, he'd of course have to go and strike your computer while GH is so far away and work is driving you mad. Hey, if you want, I'll put a hit out on that Murphy guy! Hey, what are uber-friends for if not a whack job every now and then, hm?

I always carry a hammer with me! It doesn't always fix everything but, by god, I do feel better afterwards. Never used it on a computer, yet. What's your advice on this, DC?

I feel just as stranded without my computer as I do without a car - hope it is up soon.

Excuse the previous...had spelling errors!

I meant to say:

Sorry to hear this dc... this happened to me when I first moved to Hawaii, where a Tripp Lite is essential equipment.

Oh nooooo.

Oh man, I know how that feels.

How did Murphy get in your home? No surge protector?

I hope you can fix it soon.

annie: Thanks, and relax, this machine is not going to become a dark overlord. ;)

cadiz: Tks, it is solved now.

bunny jo: You're such a sweet! Mind if I add a few more names for you to whack?

cream: Keep your hammer away from my computer!!! I can handle this without smashing it, thank you! :D

lisa: I would say the same thing when it happened, but now that the problem is solved I realize I didn't miss it that much, probably cuz I didn't have the free time to miss it.

ale: Yup, for some time. But now you'll have to put up with me again.

kris: I have power surge protection, but I had been doing some things around here and I by-passed it. I know, I know, not the smartest move...

hayden: Thanks.

GG: Has I said to Kris, little Einstein here by-passed the surge protector to save the trouble of re-wiring the thing right...

dan: I'm back man! Stop banging your head.

CR: Thanks. I got the surge protector back working now. Learned my lesson, won't be lazy next time. Hopefuly.
