    Really weird...

    Last night we had a huge storm, tons of lightning and supposed 60mph winds.

    So, I get my my car this morning, it was really nice out. Turn the car on, plug in my ipod, and start playing some music. I start driving away when I realise that nothing is playing. I look at my ipod, its playing, not frozen. I check the connection, its all in. I thought maybe my remote wire broke since I used it to tap a relay on to power my fans. I turn the volume all the way up, no hiss or anything... complete silence.

    I keep driving and all of a sudden it turns on for no reason. Never did it again... Odd I think.


    Well tonight I am going out to dinner with my dad, we get in his car and he tells me the EXACT same story, how the radio wouldnt work and it was just silence when he turned it up all the way, then all of a sudden it started working. I then ask my mom if she noticed anything, and she said the SAME THING.

    Fucking weird is all I can say. the only thing is that my moms explorer deck is pretty much trashed, does not play CDs, the display does not turn on, and its not unusual for it not to work at all... but still, really weird.

    Heres another tidbit of infomation that may not be connected. But during the storm brant was chasing it in his audi. All of a sudden his RPMs dropped, oil light went on, and the car stalled. He thought the timing belt busted. So he got out, checked the oil and the belt, it was all fine. Started it up and it ran just fine. But I guess it did it again today.

          damn b10 >:(



          seriously though, it seems pretty likely that it was just electromagnetic interferance caused by the lightning and percipitation.
