Dang it man that's terrible. I'm glad to hear that they are ok. If there is anything the ALdeer crew can do to help, post it up. Don't be afraid to ask.

My daughter called the other night and said the microwave was popping and flashed an arc. I told her to immediately turn the breaker off and I'd be home shortly. Turns out the motor for the turn table had shorted out and smoked the plastic triangle piece the turns the glass plate. Appliances just ain't made worth a crap anymore. I'm constantly unplugging stuff around the house that's not in use. It's almost like you just gotta flip breakers off on your way out everyday just to try and prevent something from shorting out and burning the house to the ground while you're at work.
