    Rear-control induction stoves rise from the dead.

    A pair of Frigidaires wait in the wings. Listed as "not in stock" at Home Depot and not yet appearing on the induction stoves home page at Frigidaire.com. A few independent appliance dealers are listing them. https://www.frigidaire.com/en/p/kitchen/ranges/induction-ranges/FCRI3062AS...

    An Angel Gets A New Set Of Wings

    Can't help wondering if an auto body and paint shop could have powder coated the metal. Can you powder coat aluminum? Porcelain enamel would outlast paint. Just a thought. Beautiful restoration.

    IH Visions Induction Compatible Vitro-Ceramic Cookware

    Dare we hope they'll sell it in the USA? Contacted Corelle Brands' USA branch about it and offered to test it. Stay tuned. So far only for sale in the Asia Pacific market. Only place you can't use it is in the microwave oven. Even Google Shopping can't find anyone selling it on the "gray...

    Combo stereos 1969-84

    Grew up in a house with a Curtis Mathes AM/FM/FM Stereo BSR Record Changer 25" Black and White TV Entertainment Center. No tape. Had AUX inputs. Had tubes. Pop out the questionable ones, take 'em to the tube tester in the Camera Department at Sage's Complete Shopping, come back with...

    $500.00 more for 2-minute pizza? I'll wait.

    https://www.frigidaire.com/en/collections/pizza For an extra $500.00, you can trick out Frigidaire's "15+ ways to cook" stoves (induction, electric, gas) with a 750 degree F pizza oven feature including a pizza stone and peel (oversized spatula). Now, if I also made a lot of pita, nan and...

    What Temp Is Your Thermostat Set?

    78F on both mini-split boxes and 4 ceiling fans. Feels good.

    Your thoughts on a second midlife crisis: Subaru Impreza Turbine Tribute

    Some AI generated images for a custom car project I've been mulling. Yes, there really is a car paint color called Chrysler Turbine Bronze. So, with some custom badging, I'm thinking of turning my 2013 Impreza into a tribute to a piece of automotive history, mostly the exterior. The only...

    Before Walmart, Target and Kmart, there was Sage's Complete Shopping

    I vaguely remember a magazine cartoon showing a guy in a video store in the "Surround Sound DVDs" section. The "Surround Sound DVDs" banner is peeling away revealing the old "Quadraphonic LPs" sign beneath.

    Target in San Bernardino was a FedMart ("America's Greatest General Store").

    Before Walmart, Target and Kmart, there was Sage's Complete Shopping

    Yeah, too late to save 'em, though. Maybe they had sent someone to the first West Coast Computer Faire where the Apple II was unveiled, took one look at Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak as well as those milling around their booth and said "Nope. No way."

    Before Walmart, Target and Kmart, there was Sage's Complete Shopping

    Ah, Circuit City . . . Went to the hiring event for the Circuit City in San Bernardino. Interviewer asks "So, what do you want to sell?" "Personal computers, you know, like Apple." Interviewer leans in and in hushed tones, "Between you and me, we've seen the kind of people who want to own a...

    Before Walmart, Target and Kmart, there was Sage's Complete Shopping

    Today's The Mega Brands That Built America features the three chains in the subject but not a single mention of regional ahead-of-the-times chains like Sage's Complete Shopping in San Bernardino county. The one in Rialto had a grocery store, a hot foods deli, a coffee shop, jewelry department...

    What were your childhood interests in appliances, machinery, etc?

    Record players, tape recorders and movie projectors. Something hypnotic about the rotating motion and the mechanics, especially of a record changer.

    "The Mega-Brands That Built America": They've GOT to include Kodak and Polaroid

    Well, just saw the opening credits and the montage of products included a Polaroid SX-70 camera and a Kodak Instamatic. Remains to be seen if they’re paired in the same episode. Updates as they happen!

    New electric stove

    Consider induction… … especially if you can budget $1000 and at least half your cookware is induction compatible. Our Frigidaire has been trouble free and we scored it for $998.00.

    What? No "Touch-N-Cook"?

    I stand corrected.   Actually, I'm sitting.  I based my information on the serial number and manufacturing date label.  The stove had the "Designed In, Engineered In, Assembled in AMERICA" label on the oven door.   It just didn't specify which state.

    Good Electric Cooking Burner

    Save up a grand . . .   . . . and take the ultimate plunge.  Especially if you're replacing an electric.   Not an affiliate link. No kickback for me. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Frigidaire-30-in-4-Element-Front-Control-Induction-Range-in-Stainless-Steel-with-Air-Fry-FCFI3082BS/333867593
