I've been very suspicious of my toaster oven lately.

Putting slugs in the shotgun. :?
It's a dirty job but I got to do it for 27 years. Thank you.

I want to see it walk around without any wires or anything hanging off it. Then I'll be impressed. When they go cordless that's when you truly have something that can function in the field like their "Big Dog" design.
