The foil trick takes care of most of it, but I use mine a couple of times a year for back up. Usually when I can have windows open at the same time.
They don't clean the oven, only my microwave. In almost 20yrs of renting/homeownership I have never used the self cleaning cycle. And like others have said, it cleans by burning everything so you don't use additional cleaner.
I used to use just oven cleaner spray, but tend to do less chemical cleaning now (no particular reason). If you have time and elbow grease, you can make a paste of baking soda and water and put that on the mess. Let it sit overnight and then wipe out with a damp cloth. Then you can spray vinegar on any leftover spots and continue to wipe out until everything is gone. You could also cover the baking soda paste with soapy paper towels. That is how I clean my glass cooktop. Let sit and then wipe off.
I'm not much of an expert on horror TV series. Mostly just movies. There are very few TV series that I'll follow regularly: Z Nation, TWD, FTWD, Lucha Underground, Full Frontal, The Daily Sow, @Midnight, Into The Badlands, and New Japan Pro Wrestling. Other than those, I'll watch the Baja Races, but honestly, that is about it for TV series.
Long and busy weekend and I am not going to catch up on these pages.
Friday was pretty cool out at the airport with the B-17. Met a guy that flew a lot of missions in one as well as one guy that was a belly turret gunner...he was a small guy.
Yesterday we had a wedding in DSM and the reception was at the botanical center which was cool.
Today was the fly-in breakfast at Marion which was a pretty good turnout. Back out with the B-17 this afternoon. They needed to do an engine run before closing up for the night and I got to sit inside so I took video of the bomb bay doors closing as well as the engine starting. If I would have been paying attention I could have gotten a free ride on it down to Springfield, IL tomorrow morning. Oh well, next time.

Sold an oven to an employee once. (not a bright batch). They put a turkey in and ran the oven cleaner mode. Said the turkey was delicious.
Hey, RTT folks, long time, no see. Thought I'd drop a line to share....those of you who remember me talking about der hund...he went home last Friday. He had been in liver failure since March-ish, was slowly losing weight. Still happy and full of life, so we were treating his symptoms trying to get him to keep on weight (including me making 'fat pills' treats of pork fat, steel cut oats, peanut butter, and cottage cheese). Had some good times to prepare, but the week before this one he started to turn and wouldn't eat, and lost energy. We had him put down last Friday. It was of course very hard, but I can think of a hundred ways the situation could have been worse. Hope y'all are doing well.
Great to hear from you, wish it was a more positive event. Sorry to hear about your dog.
With regard to der hund, OK, they had one of my aunts (that I don't think they ever met) and my grandma (that they knew, but she was in poor health as long as they remember) also pass away recently where we got to talk to them about death when they were curious but not emotionally attached. As well, it's been a busy couple weeks for us, camping last weekend and Dells this weekend (both pre-planned), so they haven't had much time to think, even if they were affected. Neither of them was extremely attached to him, der hund wasn't much of a cuddler. Mrs00 and I were a wreck, of course.
In general, the kiddos are good as well. Little00 will be in 2nd grade this year, littlest00 in an alternate kindergarten (he's just before the birthday cutoff, he probably would have been OK, but mrs00 was convinced he was too young, and the school said he 'qualified'...they do zero evaluation)
Sunday evening random:
- Portlandia rose wine from Oregon (or Origami as I call it) is good with rhubarb/strawberry crisp. And I mean for drinking while you prepare it although guessing it "pairs" well also. Will test later.
- In spite of it's utter and total absurdness, 10,000 B.C. is sorta entertaining Sunday night movie fare. Could use some HBO style gratuitous nudity though.
- I just f-bombed my laptop charging cord. ******* piece of **** tried to trip me (again).
Sorry for your loss, 00. It's not even something I want to think about, but as Riley turned 9, it's kind of something I'll need to start keeping in the back of my head.
Glad to see ya back, though.
