The post whore thread.

Good thing I had my office (upstairs bedroom) door open and an timer going on Alexa.

I smelled it before it got too far. However, there's no smoke detector downstairs and it wasn't enough to set off the upstairs.

Talk about a High Blood Pressure moment.

Meh,

Now if the fire was outside the oven, that might have gotten my heart rate up.

In retrospect, I should have just gone outside and killed the breaker first instead of opening the door. I didn't notice it was actually on fire, just some smoke coming out the vent.

I thought maybe just the sheet pan was on fire and I could just throw some bicarbonate in there and opened it again with a box in my hand and it was worse. LOL. That's when I went for the extinguisher.

Went to the junkyard today (West Auto Parts in Commerce City). Lucked out and found the part I needed pretty quick (a power antenna). I bring it up to the counter and the guy says, "I can do $25." I said, "This is a Rock Auto replacement, and that's what they go for brand new." He just shrugged and asked me to put it back in the car I got it from. What the fuck is the point of going to a pick and pull if they are going to charge you the same price as brand new parts? Now I have to call around and see what people will charge me before I waste any more time.

This is it from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Metra-44-PW22...70_&dpSrc=srch

Maybe $25 is an okay deal, but it sure doesn't feel like it, can't even tell if it worked.

The difference price wise, gives you one that's warrantied and one that isn't.

I've had *some* success in junkyards with odd things, but yeah they no longer a great deal as far as I can tell. The exception of course being things that are hard to get or otherwise impossible.

I've gotten a few small things at junkyards in the past for great prices, even ones that were already pulled for me. Just not yesterday I guess.
