Oh funny story,
MomXP struck today. Apparently while I was teaching at the airport - mom told me we had the power die. Anyway, the UPS was making its usual noise and she called my dad asking what to do. As per usual, he said nothing because she would **** something up. So something must've gotten at her because when I came home I found all the power cords unplug'd, the keyboard unplug'd and about 1/2 a dozzen USB things unplug'd. My only response was "mom...was the computer off???" She gave me this blank innocent look....
I then went in and had an "al bundy" cry.
