Mary, my heart would have been pounding in my ears if I heard a conversation in my home in the middle of the night! Oh my, you must have been worried! Glad it was "only" the TV. Both times!

I notice no one has asked WHY you have a sword? WHY you had 3 of them?

My last microwave oven took to turning itself on now and then. THAT was worrisome, unplugged it and bought a new one lickety split.
