This house is great for WTFs. Each bedroom has an outlet and a ceiling fan controlled by a light switch. I eas hoping they did it the easy way and used the lamp box to tie everything together, but nope, one cable in the box. So,i decided to next look at the switch, maybe that's the junction, and⦠Off the top of my head i only know two ways to wire a circuit like this, but they came up with a third, they used a 14-3 Romex cable in the switch box. Umm, i'm trying to think of what they could've done, and drawing a bit of a blank.

The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles. But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots thatβd still be keeping his feet dry in ten yearsβ time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

If the US is the way I think it is, it's only a matter of time before another sociopathic narcissist sends us on the same kind of journey again. Trump no longer being president doesn't solve the systemic issues that led to his presidency. :/
