Tubes and their problems


I thought since I am currently having a few tube problems, and since i am not
that technically inclined, I would ask what are the typical warning signs and problems of our beloved tubes.
I will start off with the "popping" sound that I believe indicates either tube failure or impending failure ( perhaps someone can clarify why a tube does this?) What are the other various warning signs to look out for?

If your system is bringing in al-jazeera: look for tube with a beard and towel-wrapped head. Eliminate it, with extreme prejudice, before it blows up your house!
