Explosive Idea


So, I was sitting here at my computer just now, wondering what to blog about, and suddenly a light exploded. Literally! Right over my head, the glass part of the ceiling fixture made a loud pop, flew off its three little screws, hit the chair I'm sitting in and bounced on the carpet. Stunned, I looked up; the light bulb was intact, still glowing innocently. I'm trying to figure out what happened. Could my powers of concentration be that powerful? Pretty freaky!

That is so unbelievably cool! Only I do believe you.

WOW. That's scary. I wonder if the last person who changed the bulb tightened the screw too tight and the stress finally broke the glass?

(and yes, your powers of concentration are, no doubt, phenomenal!)

The light bulb in my office blew yesterday. What a coincidence.

freaky is right! We had lights in our old house that would go on and off all by themselves. It first happened when my son was home alone. Later learned that our neighbors had the same remote. Things were freaky at their house too!
