    Default Won't Cook

    I put a roast in the oven one noon hour and set the timer, a feature
    I hadn't used yet. Before leaving work that afternoon, I phoned my
    14-year-old son to ask him to check the roast and peel some potatoes.
    Minutes later he called back. "Mom, the roast isn't cooked. The oven
    didn't come on."

    The roast was on the menu again the following day, but this time,
    since I stopped by the house after a business lunch, I decided to
    turn the oven on myself. Again before leaving work, I called my son
    to check the roast and get the potatoes started. Again he called me
    back. "The roast still isn't cooked."

    "Listen," I said. "I know the oven's on. I turned it on before I
    left. I didn't use the timer."

    "Oh, the stove's working fine," he told me. "It's just that the roast
    is still in the refrigerator."

    Forgive your enemies, but never, ever forget their names.
    The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but never forget.
