Watery Monitor?

The following text is a stupid question. Please excuse verbatim's momentary lapse of reason as he is tired and he would like to get this off his chest.


I have an old monitor (NEC multisync 3fge if anybody cares) that spends most of the time unplugged and sitting underneath a minifridge. I use it very rarely, but my problem is that I unplugged the fridge today, and as it warmed up, ice in the cooling box melted and ran out. Thats right folks, into the monitor.

So I pick up the monitor to move it, and water flows out of the bottom vent holes. There's obviously a puddle of water in there. My limited knowledge of everything tells me that if I plug it in, it'll blow up, right?

Assuming the answer is yes, is there any easy, cheap and/or simple way to get this water out without causing any pain to myself or the circuit breakers?


-End of stupid question-
