It’s Public Service Announcement Day. Here’s another one for you fellows: Don’t set your laptop directly on your lap. It could burn your genitals. Snookums and I are still laughing at this guy’s claim that he was just “writing a report” fully-clothed. Uh-huh. Anyone bothered to check his ISP logs?

Heh! Several years ago a gas plant down here exploded and the whole city was without gas for weeks. Being the middle of winter, everyone with gas hot water had to start boilin’ up the kettle to keep warm, and hospitals started reporting that the number one injury they treated during Ye Olde Gas Crisis was ‘burns to the genital area’.
I’m not sure exactly how that boiled water was being used, but it sure was a disturbing insight into people’s private lives 🙂
