A Warm Greeting

Lest you get the impression that New York doesn't have a soft side...

I finally broke down and bought a microwave on Monday. I went to CostCo, and bought the cheapest once they had. When I plugged it in, the microwave turned out to be quite charming-- well, for a microwave:



That's right, it invites me to "Have a Good Cooking Time."

But my friendly microwave became somewhat less friendly when I turned it on for the first time. It proceeded to short out the electrical outlet into which it was plugged. And all those around it, for that matter.
