    @SGH - Da-n. What a tragedy.  Sounds like you have no idea the source.  At least no one hurt, no lost meats and no collateral damage.  But still...
    Insurance coverage??

    I honestly don’t have a clue how it started. And you are correct, luckily no one was hurt and no other damage. As far as insurance, no sir. A couple of grand up in smoke. 
    Maybe you had some tweakers move in and try and cook some meth.  We have had a number of car fires in my area due to them setting up meth labs in the cars.

    I really want a Blue Star range, but that is a lot of $$$ to hedge on divided government actually doing something.
    was looking at several high end appliance brands and thought I had my mind made up until I spend over an hour talking to a gent about the internals of them all. 

    The wife and I settled on a PCFG3670AF..

    I guess we will see what we will see...

    Interesting, why did a Frigidaire float to the top?  My folks have all Frigidaire pro line stuff.  It is real nice, but didn't realize it was on the same level.

    Thanks fellows, I really appreciate. However do not fret. We can rebuild it. We have the technology. The only thing we are lacking is the money 🤣

    I think after this incident I am going to give up on my idea of making it portable. The next one will have 3 foot high brick walls and then 12 foot wood walls above. With that said, money will certainly be the determining factor when all is said and done.

    @SGH Might take a bit longer to buy that Caribbean island palace you've got targeted I guess.  All in good fun.  And the end result still sucks as you are well aware.  
    BTW- no serious bleed outs with the Muhle R41 as a head shaver.   B)

    It’’s all muck and bullets in the maelstrom of mid-season.  Transfers, back to back matches, managers fearing the dreaded ‘vote of confidence’ (code for, pack your bags) from the owners, teams for sale, and the odd smattering of actual kick-ball.  

    Liverpool v Chelsea, well - the is clash of the flaccids.  9th plays 10th. At least the Blues can blame new ownership turmoil.  Big questions is; what next for Big Jurgy? Has heavy metal football gone the way of disco?  1-1

    Bournemouth v Forest, one defeat in 5 for the visitors and perhaps the unique approach of 25 new players for this season will work afetrall? The hosts are slumping in that way wet plaster slides off a wall. 0-2

    Leicester v Brighton, why do the Filthy Seagulls only ever play rubbish teams?  Foxes on a four game losing streak, cue the South Coast wretches to rock up and steal the baby’s candy. 0-2

    Southampton v Villa, although the Saints have improved recently - not hard, frankly, their guests this weekend are on a richer run of form. I wager a regression to the mean and 1-2 away win.

    West Ham  v Everton, no one had these two as 18th and 19th at the mid-way point, but they are and there is no luck in that.  One - maybe both managers will be sacked after this match. Leave it any longer and the new incumbent has no transfer options because the window closes on 31st.  Both teams’ form is completely up the creek and the actual result is merely a by-line. 37-6 and five eighths. 

    Palace v Newcastle, we scored a goal! Nothing better than scoring in the dying seconds to rob the self-entitled thin skinned moaners from Man Utd. But now it’s the Toon in town with one defeat in 19.  On the plus side their talismanic Brazilian (player, not below the waist hairstyle) is absent through injury, blend that with our trademark but unwanted unpredictability to spice things up. I’ll take 1-1 all day long. 

    Sunday

    Leeds v Brentford, Jesse’s lads just can’t pull clear of the whirling eddy of the relegation zone. The Bees just keep on doing whatever the hell it is they do and sit pretty in 8th. 2-2

    Man City v Wolves, slightly misfiring Citeh really do need a word with themselves, but a big comeback win last night against Spurs could be the self-affirming jolt they needed. 2-0 and nothing to see here.

    Arsenal v Man Utd, the big match but once again this could be the tale of one absent player as Utd’s major asset multiplier is suspended. A traditionally spicy affair back in the day when tenacious spirit was more important than Insta-likes. 2-0

    Monday 

    Fulham v Spurs, 5th hosts 6th and another ‘who’d have thought that?’ situation. The bubble just won’t burst for Fulham and good for them, and by that I mean - I loathe them for it.  Tough to call because Spurs have gone all Spursy so could be anywhere between imperious and shambolic, often during the same game.  2-2

    Finally, and straight out of my gambling wheelhouse, congratulations to the chap who plonked $1.4 million on the LA Chargers when they were winning 27-0.  I understand this relates to a game of space-man attired, whisper secret, bump in to each other and then stop for an ad’ break ball.   I like that he would have won $11,250,  that’s my kind of wagering.  He didn’t.  Don’t be that guy this weekend, unless you can get the book and screen play rights nailed directly after.

    Other girls may try to take me away

    I was of two minds with the City/Spurs game midweek.  City dropping points is always a good thing, but Spurs going all Spursy…

    You have a hunt to get in shape for!  Infind it good to have a bad cheat day.  Makes it easier to not do again.
