Default Every time I think I have some mod money something else comes up.



So I go to turn on my TV. Her name is Sony. And she starts acting strange. I assume its just the cable and switch over to the video input. And she is still acting strange but its getting worse. I look at her trying to understand the situation then she starts making a cracking noise and turns off. I turn her back on and she starts cracking real bad and turns off again.

Then the smokes comes out.

Apparently TVs use smoke for something and if it escapes they no longer work.

Looks like I need a new TV. Sony wasn't even that old.

Don't you know ALL eletronics run on smoke. If you let it out, they don't work any more.

The quality of the electronics depends on how much smoke they can pack in there.

Just like a woman! Did you try pouring in about 12 ozs of tequilla? That's what always works for me.

And you guys are all right-- all electronics use magic smoke to turn their tiny nano-gidgets that control the wizbang preprocessors and make the light shows work. Trannys are 100% electronics as can be proven by letting the smoke out -- once that happens they stop working, ergo transmissions are digital devices and need batterys, plus backup power supplies. It's true.

Hook up a hose from the exhaust of your truck, gun it, and fill the smoke chambers back up in Sony.
