This, unfortunately, is not funny.  My best man was killed in his house
by 115 VAC.  He was standing barefoot on a heat-vent, and changing a
record or something on his hi-fi system.  Apparently there was a hot
chassis in the hi-fi system.  When he did not report for work at his
father's shop, the father went to the house and found him, far too late.
He left a wife and a little boy about two. RIP, Ron.
