    chas10e got a reaction from Justin in Do you use hot sauce? How hot do you like it?   
    No hot sauce for me thanks !!! anything hotter than a bar-b-Que potato chip is WAY to spicy for me !
    Every once in a while I will do a tiny dip of salsa if available eating tortilla chips from a mexican resturant. mild is ok and will try a bigger scoop if not to spicy.

    Oh wow, I got 2'nd place \o/
    I stopped by a TV place on way home, said $30.oo deposit to check it out & will be placed towards the repair cost if done.
    I lost both picture & sound at the same time so thinking power circuit
    I didn't unplug-replug but did let it cool down for a night. upon trying again a loud pop inside, sounded like a capacitor popped
    I think it'd be worth having it professionally looked at

    That will work out great. I missed some punk-u-ation in my post & figgered that's what may have cause corn-fusion.
    Got a couple busy pinball weekends & will certainly try and keep the RJB moving along smoothly.

    What a brutal squad challenge, my 19" Philco TV kinda died 😢
    While in attract mode it just turned itself off.
    I can't seem to find what year this thing was made. there is still a local TV repair shop and I guess I could take it there. but I think it's $50.oo just to drop the thing off for them to look at ( was a few years ago anyways )
    I kinda suspect it was Karma from LMAO @Atari Creep 's video above earlier that night.
    I guess I'm looking for recommendations ,  have it fixt or toss it

    Oh man, that's a tough call. 

    Before you decide, let it cool down overnight.  Unplug it, turn it on, then off.  It is possible that once all the capacitors are discharged, it may fire back up.  Summer heat may have caused the shutdown.  That thing is pretty cool.  Definitely worth keeping, but that's just my opinion. 
    On the other hand, you might spend a day or two looking at Facebook marketplace.  That's where I found two really nice sets over the last couple of months. 
    Good luck.  Start another thread if you feel like it.  I'd like to see how this turns out.
