Mickey's Blog: A scary experience

A little about myself.
I am an IT technician, participate in many projects, some HTML work, and reading a lot. I also contribute articles to IT magazines about Open Source Software as a core member of Japan Apache Users Group. I've been in computer related fields from 1978. starting in college, nuclear physics major, I had to take a class in FORTRAN and that was it, I was hooked on the machines. I started working first as an application programmar at a system development company. Then moved on to a system integration company, and specializing in data communication, small & mid size systems. I run a small intranet at home, a router, Windows Servers, Windows Desktops and CentOS Linux . The Linux runs DNS, HTTP, FTP, SMTP, and POP3 making it nice for software testing and development.

A scary experience

Yesterday midnight, I put the end of USB cable into a coffee cup by mistake.
Then the PC on the other end of the cable said, "this system recognized a new device"

That was a coffee!
I was taking out the cable in a hurry, then the PC continued,
"You can use a new device"
I can use the coffee? how do it work?

In the morning, I woke up and made a beeline for the PC to check the new device on the device manager. But that disappeared. Was that a dream? If so, it must have been a nightmare.
