93625 2002-10-28 00:25:00 You know you're a hopeless geek when you go on holiday and you:
- fix the tuning on the TV
- re-run the power cabling so all the kitchen appliances can be plugged in at once.
- put the right time in the microwave.
- and tighten the screw on a cupboard hinge.

Sad, take a guy away from a PC for three days and see what happens?
