Ok, L.A. was absolute Hunter S.ian adventure the pleasures and excitements of which are rarely paralleled, but that all immediately fell to shit the moment I returned home and flopped on my couch to relax with my glorious and adored PS3 that I've had since launch day and began to watch a Blu-Ray only to have the movie seize up and the system refuse to read any discs afterward! I screamed to the heavens and my tears formed rivers. I tried every different type of disc, DVD, CD, PS2 game, PS3... coaxing each time like a character on E.R., "LIVE damn it, LIVE!" Nothing. Once I got over my mourning period I found that Sony would charge me $150 for repair as it was no longer under warranty and that there were plenty of other shops willing to do the repair for about the same money. My mind became fixed on a plan so genius that some would call it MAD! <cue lightning> I donned my lab coat and withdrew to the dark confines of my study with instructions to the rest of the household that I was not to be disturbed under any circumstances I began feverishly researching the problem. I deduced that it was my Blu-Ray Laser module, the KES-400a for those of you taking notes, that had burned out. I ordered its replacement for under $50. Yesterday it arrived and as I worked with an elaborate set of pulleys and arcane technology I extracted the heart of the unit and replaced it with the new one and... AND... IT'S ALIIIIIIVVEEE!!!!!!!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!! I'm so happy! |
