Five minutes of Fail:
This week I’ve learned not to get electric shocks when pulling apart an iMac, not to fall down stairs when trying to save a video camera from falling off a shelf, not to let a 19 month old child pinch your arm where the bruises are appearing from the previously mentioned fall because he can’t get to sleep because he is teething and not to smash a 2.5″ SATA Hard Drive with a pair of pliers if you need to retrieve data off it later.
This week I’ve failed to not get an electric shock when pulling apart an iMac, failed not to fall down stairs when trying to save a video camera from falling off a shelf, failed not to let my 19 month old son pinch my arm where the bruises are appearing from the previously mentioned fall because he can’t get to sleep because he is teething . Fortunately I was smashing the drive to ensure that data could not be recovered it. Pliers, whist not a hammer, are suitably effective.
Despite all efforts my own body has gone to this week to harm me, I (for now) remain alive.
