A minor inexplicable thing:
At one point this summer, my husband and I were staying a couple of nights in a hotel near the house we were renovating because the plumbing in the house was out of commission for the weekend.
The first night after we were done working on the house, we trudged into the hotel room, took our showers, and took out a little cheapo DVD player we'd gotten as a freebie for ordering something from somewhere and popped in the first disk of the first season of "Eureka".
We watched about half of the episode, and turned it off and slept for the night. The next evening we came in and debated for a moment: should we finish the Eureka episode? Or did we have time to watch a whole movie instead? We'd seen the Eureka episode when it first aired, so there was no urgency to re-watch it. We decided to watch "Night at the Museum" which we hadn't seen yet, but my husband had gotten it for my birthday a few days earlier.
We popped the DVD into the player and it whirred a bit and a message appeared,
"Wrong Disk". We'd never seen such a message before on a DVD player.
My husband tried all kinds of things to get the player to work, but it just wouldn't. He finally gave up, cursing the company that gave us such a worthless piece of junk as an incentive to order when I asked him to try another disk.
He put in the Eureka disk, and the menu popped right up. So, we finished watching the first episode and as he was shutting it down, I said, "Try the other disk again!" He put it in. It worked fine.
I guess it was no longer the "wrong disk".
