DAMN! Now THIS is getting outta hand! I just got to Work, only to find that my Computer is FRIED! Damn UPC Power Protection DOES NOT WORK! Some Lightening Storm Friday night STILL made it through my UPC & now Electrical-Fire & Smoke are comeing outta the Power Supply in my Computer! I just unplugged it all & its still smoking. I can only hope that it didnt effect the Motherboard or Hard Drives where i keep a lotta VOIVOD stuff! (Not to mention Valuable Work Templates). These UPC Power Protectors are the expensive kind too! There are 3 of them in my office that are working. Well...make that 2 of them now. That means...in the past 5 Years here...i have had 3 of them FAIL! UPC SUCKS!!! I am writing this on another Computer here. First, my Home Computer meets the grim reaper...then my old Backup one needs an overhaul...Now, i come to work, where all the GOOD equipment is at and find it FRIED! NOW...as i type...the SERVER is Rebooting for no reason! WTF!!!! Oh, great! Problems there too! Disc Boot Failure!!??? Stand-back, folks...I'm gonna go get the Sledgehammer.

UPDATE:Work Computer is now um...working. Power pack got fried. Picked up a new one yesterday & replaced it. Motherboard & Hard Drive are safe. OH!...The Monitor got fried too! Getting a new one on Ebay. Home Computer is back up & working. Just got all my Email fixed last night. Still upgrading & tweaking as time allows. SATAN had given me a little 'Flaming Fireball Dust' a while back. Well...i over-used it & the result was that everything electronic that i touched...burst into flames! You should see my TV! BTW...SATAN is currently on a 'World Chaos' Tour. After some well-deserved rest in Brasil. He said 'HELLO' and 'YOU WILL ALL BURN IN HELL.' He says that a lot though.
