I haven't posted in quite a while, but thought I'd take the time today. We're having some weird electrical things going on at home today.
First, our TV stopped working in that it would only show a black screen. It would play a movie, but not show anything related to the satellite. I let the kids watch part of a movie, stopped it, and then the TV began working normally. I didn't change any of the settings or anything.
Second, I heated up some chocolate in the microwave last night and it started arc-ing. I've had this happen before - perhaps there are metal fragments left in the chocolate - not sure. BTW, it was a completely different kind/brand of chocolate the two times. I cleaned the microwave pretty well and used it earlier today with no problems, but then went to reheat something I allowed to cool and it started arc-ing really badly this time. Weird....

I know what you mean about the weird TV . mine wouldn't turn on . AT ALL . I called the company and they said I needed to unplug it for 15 minutes . plugged it back in and it worked fine for exactly 1 month apparently I have to unplug it every month for 15 minutes. don't ask me. but that's what the tech support at Sylvania says .
as for the chocolate sometimes the chocolate does have trace metals in it . It isn't harmful to you it comes from the metal containers they use to process the chocolate in . you can call the Hershey's company and they will tell you about it .
