D’oh!

Crap. Today I plugged in some lamps that my co-worker Corine gave me. In doing so, I had to re-arrange some of the plugs. Somehow I managed to take the adapter off one plug and stuck it in the 220 outlet.

And when I turned on my DVD player to watch one of my new movies…..snap, crackle, pop along with smoke and that special smell associated with fried circuits.

I replaced the adapter and plugged into the 110 outlet, turned it on again and got a picture. No sound though. And the Hangul subtitles help me not one bit.

Geez, I feel stupid. Could this be the first indication of that old timers disease I heard about?

Ah well.
