System just turned off

Just a few minutes ago I lost control of my computer.

I was watching a dvd and I started Google Earth to look up a location.
Google Earth came up, I saw Thunderbirds email notification in the
bottom corner pop up, then the screen went blank and my monitor turned
on a off about 8 times. Not the screen, but that little ticking sound
you hear when a monitor gets a signal from the pc. I finally had to kill
the machine and reboot.

I just sent through the syslog and this is the only thing I see today
that might be odd:

Jul  4 08:58:12 wadesmart init: tty4 main process (5050) killed by TERM
signal
