So I did an impromptu experiment today, to see if gravity effects audio visual equipment the same way it does most of the rest of material objects. The short version is, it does. :) At the same time I decided to test who would win in an "audio visual equipment vs. human right foot" grudge match. The outcome here was a little harder to judge, but I think I am going to give it to the 5 disc changer DVD player/receiver unit.
While cleaning out some things in my bedroom, including an old receiver/DVD player that broke but I still have hopes of fixing, somehow, and I am still unclear on this point, the DVD player ended up free to obey the laws of gravity, and landed on my foot. I have to say, some of the language that came out of my mouth would not have passed a movie rating board with a PG-13 rating. Luckily it was just me in the room though. lol. All affected items seem to be ok, though given that we have been trying to figure out what is wrong with my foot since January, and the silly component fell on the EXACT spot where the pain has been emanating from, I did consider going to get an X-ray. Other than a little goose egg, a small bruise, and some soreness though it seems to be fine. I think I have already had enough radiation exposure of my foot for a while. lol.
So, should you ever wonder: DVD players DO follow the laws of gravity, but do not have the mass to completely lay out a foot when falling from short distances. :-) Now you know. LOL
Happy "free-falling electronics" free days to everyone! :)

Girl...you and I must be related in some weird, strange way. Maybe it's the Aquarian thing, but it is kinda funny.
That really sucks. I hope your foot heals up ok and the DVD player got kicked out the window.
