My room is officially a boredom zone now... (No jokes!)

Firstly my TV blew up while I was watching the Arsenal highlights. (That'll teach me not to watch crap!)

I was laying in bed watching the highlights when the picture starting fuzzing, all the menus started popping up and it ventually shut off. I got up to report the problem to my parents upstairs when I smelt a burning plastic static smell. It stunk the whole downstairs out and I had to sleep on the couch in the lounge! I got to see Robbie Keane score though! Shame though that my whole room stinks of frazzled electronics now, I can smell it everywhere!

That's not all though!

Now my bloody Hi-Fi has blown up too! I get a new CD, put it in and it hisses and blows up.

I got nothing to do now, can't watch TV or play my GC in my room anymore and my Hi-Fi has stopped working too!

Not only can I not play CDs in my room, my PC has stopped playing music CDs too! No sound comes out! I had to convert the whole CD to Mp3 before I could finally listen to it!

It's just not my day!

Sounds bad !

Sometimes, when the PC, stereo, TV and a console are all going at the same time it gets pretty warm in my room, but nothing's blown up yet, though this is my 4th PS2 as all the others failed.....hmmm

Heh, I have a full Dolby Digital 5.1 set up in my room with a brand new flatron 21" TV (yes, small but I sit near to it :-)) with my Xbox, PS2 and PC hooked up all together to make a full entertainment centre.

:-)

Nothing's ever blown up yet, although when it's all on it can reach quite a high temperature.
