Back in the "dumbest thing you ever did" thread I posted this
about a zapping...

But in keeping with the original spirit of the thread, I looked for a little cartoon I saw put up as a "please stand by" test pattern when technical difficulties interrupted tv programming (on WGN??) years ago, it showed a guy prying into the top of an old (big) tv camera with a series of parts arcing ballistically in the air away from the camera, caps, resistors, tubes and whatnot.

I always got a chuckle out of seeing it...

But I never found it.....
