Hah, good story!
I did something similar recently—our Sirius rig is getting old and the contacts that connect the head unit to the base flaky. Every so often, the thing turns off and I have to get up and jiggle it a bit until it comes back on. The other day, while I was filling the mother in law's weekly meds dispenser, it did this five times in a row, always within seconds of me sitting back down; by the fifth time, I was so frustrated that I threw an empty pill bottle at the thing and delivered a glancing blow. Fucker came back on and worked flawlessly for the next week.
