When work sends a message early in the morning that IT is having issues with people logging into the system and they’ll keep you updated, and 3 hours later you still haven’t heard anything, should you assume you still can’t log in and just go on about with other stuff waiting for that update to say “we’re back online, everyone should be good?” Asking for a friend, btw. ---

_Supposed to_ learn something? Oh, no. I’m not sure of _that_. It’s just that I _have learned_ that there’s more than one thing to learn… in life. ---

They lost everything. Their home and their cattle 😓 I don’t know how many head they had. But there are 50ish in this picture. Dead from the smoke inhalation. ---

in the oven is the way to go! one pack of bacon is never enough. bc I eat it slice by slice (w some help) before it can go anywhere. so note to self - by 2+ packs for christmas. ---

> [@tommie.frazier](#): > > in the oven is the way to go! No doubt…it just takes quite a bit longer, but it doesn’t involve a lot of interactivity, so you can set it and forget it as long as you set a timer to remember it. > [@tommie.frazier](#): > > one pack of bacon is never enough. I can’t get a full pack of bacon on one sheet, so it’s usually less than one pack per “event” for me, but, I hear ya’…a lot of bacon gets used up for purposes other than the meal it’s being prepared for. ---

related to the unintended consumption (by the cook). friend and husband were talking about cookie making for the holidays. she made a ton of cookie dough and left in fridge to cool and cook the next days. like a snowball in the freezer, the bowl of available dough shrank considerably. hubby said “hey, you assumed I’d eat 25% of those. I was just getting to it early.” ---

I have a bacon tray for my microwave. It’s not as good as making it on the griddle, but it’s less messy to clean up. I like my bacon to be chewy rather than crunchy, though, and it works well for that. ---

Voted for 3. But anything from 1-5 or maybe 6 would be ok. Assuming 1 is not in fact raw. Can’t tell. ---

I wouldn’t consider anything under a 5. Probably 6-7 is my preference. ---

I know I didn’t go into excruciating detail, but this response from a filing did surprise me: Comment: Please explain the information regarding the large loss load pursuant to KSA 40-955(e) referenced in Exhibit 7: Ratemaking Calculations as of 12.31.202 in layman terms as the DOI does not understand your previous response. ---
