Rofl. I haven't had much sparking in my life, except when one of my brothers 
pead on an icky and generally bad direct tv receiver thing, at which point 
it started phizzing, popping and doing other bad things, which could've 
possibly resulted in an electrical fire.
Think I meant jumpers, not jumper cables. Ya know, those fancy things in 
your bios?

What do jumper cables have to do with PC's? Someone is a bit too tech 
oriented in a bad way, I think.


We can, however, do something dumb, like running the individual posts of 
your power supply from individual car batteries to see what happens. That 
could be interesting with some of the 5V power rails. Of course, AC at 
240V is probably more sparkey, poppy and generally fun to smell in the 
morning, along with the coffee. Or, in the case of the old hotpoint 
freezer/refrigerator we used to have, a beautiful refreshing smell as the 
freezer is opened. Makes all the food inside a bit more yummy as well. It 
adds an electric quality to it, so to speak.

after that.

The annoying thing showed up before TBRN did, and unfortunately spilled 
into it. What else needs to be said? IT's all about the suspenders and 
jumper cables.

Don't forget those aligator clips. You'll need them someday.

Congrats, Venison, for being the only person to say that other than
Farhan, probably in the entire 5.5 year history of talk2. I have
archives, I'll have to cross-reference and see if I'm correct on 
this.

Yes, I'm sure you're just making a point and everything, right?

Er, actually, bios is generally considered software, so having jumpers 
or jumper cables in that wouldn't be very practical. Now, if you're 
talking about the hardware on which bios runs, then that's a different 
story entirely.
