Anywho, I was messing around with the wire trying to get it to turn on when my whole room light up with a "POP!" A flash light came from the base of the wire and I felt a jolt run though me. 3 seconds later I realize the wire of the lamp is broken and is seperated from the plug. I take out the plug and put the lamp down. I felt a little queezy because of a smell and thats when I realize my thumb and forefinger that held the plug while I messed with the wire were litterly burt to a chrisp. Thats where the smell was coming from. The picture are hard to see but you can see how "well done" some parts are.
The remains of the lamp's plug and a glimpse of my fingers
Mmm, smokie links.
Well done.
Moral of the story... Don't mess with anything electrical. If it's acting funny, thats usually the first sign that your going to end up like me with cooked callis. I'll be peeling for days.

So I was in physics class and the professor was explaining how currents can run through just about any ionized liquid, as long as it's a solid stream, and used a man urinating on an electrified railroad track as an example...
...oh, right, to the OP...
Ouch, but look on the bright side: you didn't pee on an electric rail.
