Subject: [TechAssist] A bit of levity(not a repair question)


> I have one for the ages.  I had a "home fixer" stop in the shop today
asking if I had "bulbs" for the back of his TV.  After a bit of questioning,
brand size, etc. He told me he took out the old one and had it in the car.
I was really confused trying to figure out what the heck he was looking for
so I told him to bring it in so I could see what it really was(I'm thinking
neon bulb, or LED or something).  He comes walking back in with a towel
wraped around the back neck of his 27" kv27ts31 picture tube.  He somehow
managed to snap off the heater/gun assembly without shattering the rest.
After I recovered from disbelief I told him I don't carry them and to try
Radio Shack.  I just didn't have the heart to tell him he ruined his tv and
if he brought it in I could have saved him the probable wrath of his wife.
