@Eleco_SR304 Like me but with Italian ham, I will never forget that one day in a field :-[
@suzukir122 My Friend makes the awesome pancakes! They are proper American ones! Mean while my Belgian Aunt, make the Best Belgian Crepes I have ever tasted (and yes, they are a lot better than the ones in the shops!)

Swapped out a very broken CFL driver at work. We have a spare, luckily. All of them are scheduled for replacement somewhere this year.

The buffer capacitor blew up so hard, that parts of one of the transformer cores (ferrite) actually broke.

No one noticed the bang or the stench of blown up electrolytic, apparently all the stink got trapped above the dropped ceiling.

Technology Connections made this video recently, around last Christmas, with some more thoughts on LED Christmas lights, including a look at the recent "vintage-style LED lights" from Sylvania.

If that is the case I guess it may be time to call this all of as I'm getting in over my head.

Yep, If not that luck, I'd probably wouldn't be there. The bit of the bacon that stretches out and is quite like gum got stuck in my throat, I believe the bit where the pharynx is. As of this, I don't think I was even able to breathe (I don't remember much I was in much shock to think...). I usually never ate that bit but decided to that day. Thankfully I was lucky enough to commit a "Throw Up" Action, which the whole thing then fell out (or the bit that got stuck middle way). After that, I decided to never touch that bit again  :slap: hopefully some members here didn't have this, or worse.

I usually try not remember it, it gives me a shudder and the other that were there. This gave me a lesson of life...

Please don't judge this action. That'd help so much...and don't ever mention this  :P

End of this discussion about my bacon action.

@Eleco_SR304, fear of bacon?
@SussexEuroSOX, not sure why or even how, but I totally forgot about making pancakes. That's surprising considering how pancakes can at
times be the best part of breakfast... case in point, Crackle Barrel pancakes. Their pancakes are serious -- usually an 8 out of 10,
each time I buy them on Door Dash. Their pancakes can be an excellent reminder of just how good pancakes can get. I need to start making
pancakes... gotta do some recipe searching.

I usually have French toast for breakfast, yum yum yum! For a treat I have bacon and maple syrup on pancakes! 😋

My oven is broken, but once I get my oven fixed, I will definitely start cooking complete breakfast meals again. My stove is still working though
so eggs and bacon can easily be made, as well as toasting bread to make it a sandwich, etc. Usually when I cook up that breakfast, it's... 
a 9 out of 10, for obvious reasons.
And Maple Bacon -- I highly recommend it! There's a reason why that 'M' and 'B' is capitalized!
