I've always maintained that the microwave oven is one of the greatest inventions ever - second only to duct tape.

Now, they'd have something, if they could invent a microwave that doesn't make the food taste like it was duct taped.

Here's some more off topic prattle. When microwave ovens first came onto the market, I was working for Wards and I sold them. There actually were some people who thought they were a hoax and that our demonstrations were "rigged". In fact, I had one couple that swore we were "doing black magic" and that we "would be punished for doing Satan's work"!

They sold pretty well, though.

That may be the funniest thing I have heard all day. That would have took a lot of explaining to "prove" there was no "magic."

My microwave oven stopped working recently. Do you know where I can get the black magic refilled?
