was strange or unusual only to be embarrassed because on investigating later has found a simple or logical explanation? yesterday, I had power connected to my printer but I had not used it in four days. I only have two ups? connectors and so my printer was not connected to my computer. so yesterday, I had my tv playing the Patriot with the sound turned off and the captions turned on, I like to listen to songs over and over so I was listening to seven songs over and over on my wireless, while browsing the internet and coming back and forth to answers. then my computer printer printed out;----- storing data securely/introduction to using encrypting file system/encrypting and decrypting data using encrypting file system/ backing up, restoring and recovering data/ help protect your computer online/ stop receiving pop-ads that have the title "Messenger Service" / help protect your identity on the internet/ understanding cookies/ security and privacy features in internet explorer/ what's a web browser add-on/ transfer files more safely over the web/ store data more securely/windows newsgroups.. well that was o-kay but then I got to thinking....I only have two ups connectors .. this kinda freaked me out because I didn't prompt it to print anything....there has to be a logical explanation and I will ask the store I bought my computer about this. but has something weird ever happened to you for you to later become embarrassed because it is easily explained? ( I can't stress the point enough I did not have the printer connected to anything other than power.

I have had my tv shut off on me while I was watching King of the Hill. The remotes were sitting on a tv tray next to me, nothing had touched them. Electronics are weird. There probably is a logical explanation. For me it could have been a stray signal from somewhere else. Maybe just a really brief power loss that only affected my tv. Just a boring, logical explanation.

You say you had power connected to your printer so that's probably all it needed.

Life is strange until you look for explanations
