    It would be Chalkie’s beer poured on his head.

    Running On Draft Mode

    A customer runs into our computer repair store panicking to such an extent that I think it’s a medical emergency.

    Customer: “There’s something wrong – so terribly wrong – with my computer!”

    She unzips her laptop bag and shoves a STEAMING laptop in my face. The smell is mostly acrid. Another tech runs up behind me, grabs the laptop and starts taking charge. Opening it, he sees that all the LEDs are blinking, so he rips out the battery and sets the laptop on the table.

    Coworker: “What happened, ma’am?”

    Customer: “I don’t know! I found it like this on the side table this morning!”

    My coworker opens up the laptop, leans in and sniffs.

    Coworker: “It smells like beer.”

    Customer: “It wasn’t me! I drink scotch!”

    The customer suddenly seems to realize something.

    Customer: “Let me call my husband.”

    She calls her husband and puts him on speakerphone as she asks him about his beer-drinking habits.

    Customer’s Husband: “Yeah, I went to bed late last night. I think I stumbled to bed and I do seem to remember the sound of something spilling on the side table, but it was dark.

    Me: Quietly. “Must’ve spilled his beer on the laptop last night.”

    Customer: To us. “Can you save the laptop?”

    Coworker: “It’s doused.”

    Customer: “But can you save it!?”

    Coworker: “No, beer or any liquid kills electronics.”

    Customer: “But… my photos!”

    We successfully backed up her hard drive with all her pictures but the machine itself died of alcohol poisoning.

    And that kids, is why you don’t drink near your drives.

    He’s lying, Chalkie; don’t worry. He’d NEVER waste beer like that—even if you paid for it.

    I’m surprised Andy knows the right answer.

    liar … you’re most likely to drink it rather than pour it, Andy

    This morning, I watched Good Morning, Britain and it included a speaker from Richmond Bridge in London. I was reminded of a strip from several weeks back where someone claimed they could probably hear Guitar Bob in London and I replied, “London Bridge is calling ‘Down with Guitar Bob’.” Someone reminded me that London Bridge was sold to an American millionaire and is now in Arizona.

    The reason that the report from Richmond Bridge reminded me of this is that the reporter on the bridge mentioned that Richmond Bridge is now also known as London Bridge since the old London Bridge is now in America.
