Dear Sir or Madman
Rushing out of work to get to Target to pick up one of those audio racks as a belated b-day present for myself, getting home and eating dinner, then going to the car to get the box, sitting it down on the porch to get the front door open and then............................................ hearing a gunshot like "pop" and hearing the tempered glass rain fall down inside the box like an afternoon in a tropical rainforest! Mannnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I have to go back to Target and lug that frigging box back inside, with the receipt of course and get another. Happy Friggin Birthday to Me! :tears:

Ya know what sucks!?

Driving 4+ hours one way, sleeping in the car, waking up at 5 am to go dive for abalone and realize it was the one month during the summer the season is closed.

btw...scootchu, Happy Belated Birthday! Good luck with your next rack!
 
Coulda been worse, I was recently told of a man whose wife had bought him a new Counterpoint SA-220 that he wanted for his 50th birthday (back when these amps were new). They had it all set up when he got home, as it was a surprise gift. He was happy, and speechless, and everyone was waiting for him to power it up. When he hit the switch, BOOM! Fire out of the top and everything. Poor guy.

At least it was under warranty at the time . . .

That's that old Murpy's law working! Hope you have no trouble with the next one. To make up for it, get yourself a new CD or something!

It could have been worse! I put together a new wooden kit rack for my dvd collection last weekend and went to put the top on it (which was the last step) to find the dowel holes and cam locks were put in the wrong place...

Best of luck with the next one!

Did you force John Candy to let you go on the Wally World rides anyway?
 
It sucks when you can't find any really good vinyl at the thrift shop
You have to dig through all the religous music and the 70's artists I have never even heard of to find anything I want to listen to.. i have scored a few good records too. I think I'll visit every thrift store untill the LP cabinet
that came with the stereo is filled!

I hope I dont wear out the stylus. :D

I'll tell you one on a related topic that's true: One of my student's father is an Anglican priest. His first church was a little country place in New Brunswick. It had one of those big gravity feed heating systems, the kind with the big floor grate and the heat exchanger underneath (this is important). The first wedding he did there was this obnoxious little brute for ring bearer. As the wedding went on he got more and more annoyed because everyone was paying attention to someone other than him, so he pick up the wedding bands, held them up for everyone to see and fired them into the grate. Of course, they ended up in the exchanger and they had to hold up the wedding while someone dismantled the furnace and got the rings out. Our friend Murphy at work once more!
