How about a 1 hard-drive, over-medium... make sure it smiles too

Luck would have it that plans to plug up my new power supply to order a back up hardrive would be a little too late. After plugging up the power supply to the hard drive, I turned on the computer. A natural thing to do. Next thing I see is smoke [not as natural] coming from my computer case where the hard drive is. FUCK!!! I turned off the computer within seconds of seeing this and removed the hard drive.

There's a nice little burned spot on the green card on the outside of the hard-drive ... it speaks to me... saying I should have backed stuff up sooner...I stare at it for a minute, agreeing with it's sentiment highlighting my ineptitude in getting it done sooner ... it speaks to me again "might as well break out the vasilene and lube up because you're going to have to bend over and take it to pay to get the data inside me retrieved..." I can almost see a devilish smile in the charred spot...
