Plugging in

Whenever I plug in my laptop which is quite often I sometimes (ok to be fair most of the time. OK FINE it is in fact almost all the time unless otherwise distracted by something else shinier) I think of those little hotwheels sets that had a "gas" station and you plugged your little extra special battery powered hotwheel in and it charged up like getting fuel and then you ran it around the track.

OK to be perfectly clear I never actually had one. I had friends who had them, but I was not so lucky. All my hotwheels required gravity. Lots of gravity. I would have launched those suckers out my 2nd story bedroom window had we lived in a 2 story house, but no.

I do recall using the covetted ones at friends houses and I also recall them not working. Apparently you had to "fuel" them overnight. I guess that's why my laptop died today in a meeting.

Maybe I should try gravity on it? 2nd story gravity?
