Had an old monitor that didn't work at all, so I opened it up to take a
look see. Well wouldn't you know it. The cable is wired to this panel
that sitting right on the end of the CRT. :-O Must have been some SMALL
hands to put that where it's located. So I'm seriously thinking about
snipping the cable and splicing a good one to it. I'll sleep on it. :-)

time to say the following:
