My brother had a printer which got pissed on a couple of years ago, so he took it outside, hosed it down, blew it out with compressed air and left it in the sun for a few hours. The printer has worked ever since. We had a cat who loved to piss down the car vents :-( Talk about air conditioning :-) |

Yesterday the cat got up onto the bench and pissed right onto/into a power plug! I'm not sure whether he got a shock or not but I heard something crackling/shorting, and the cat didnt look too happy. As soon as I grabbed him he stopped, and I didnt get a shock. But if he did, hopefully he'll stop being "teritorial" around the house :^O! Talk about shock therapy... "That'll learn ya!!!" :^O |

| 243360 | 2004-06-14 11:18:00 | This brings me onto another completely unrelated and interesting point... I would post serparately, but not many people love me anymore around here, so I'll keep a low profile... What is the difference between "That'll learn ya!" and"That'll teach ya!". My friend (yes, I have some) was discussing it with me, I'd never heard of the former untill he mentioned it, and no one else has said it but you willie... interesting... |
