Nearly Went KabooM!!

A few days ago my family was given the scare of our lives! Well, depending on how well you know the whole wiring of your house and how good you are as a technician, you might not have been as scared as we were. We knew zilch about any technical stuff so when sparks started dancing and shooting out of our cooking gas tank, we thought that our house was gonna explode! LOL! Since we had no idea what the heck was causing all the sparks and whether the gas tank had any connection with the wiring of the house, we decided to turn the gas tank off. So that night, no cooking was done and no one ate! Yup, no dinner for us! LOL!

Everything was fixed the next day after our gardener (cum handyman) decided to check out the real problem and found out that the hose connecting the gas tank to the stove was filled with oil. Don’t ask me where it came from but that’s how it was. So the hose was changed and my house didn’t explode! I’m not blogging from a dingy motel room. LOL!

And speaking of technical stuff, here’s what the new DB25 connector looks like.

Honestly, I have no idea what it is! If you’re as clueless as I am, you could read the press release about it! I should read it too. Just in case. Who knows, I might just be able to save my house from exploding!
