Been home most of the day. Tonight After I cooked supper I came into my office to eat. I smelled something burning, as I looked toward the new TV I seen flames coming out of the outlet. Ran shut off power. grabbed some water and put it out.looks like I got a wiring job to do.

I don't mind Coming to work,
but that 8hr wait to go home is a bitch.
No matter how little I do,
I always feel I could do less.

Doc, a strong second on thankfully you were right place right time. I detect an intervention of Vangels. True life stories impact so much more than fiction. So glad your Ok Doc. Presence of mind indicates not your first Rodeo... Fire is very Scary.
Used to amuse me that my little angel, Tiny Dancer, has fire extinguishers darn near everywhere, rope ladders in the upstairs windows, redundant smoke alarms, and then some. Hits pretty close Doc... Don't forget to breathe Brother. Take Care. Whew!
