I just got home. When I walked into my bedroom I noticed the boob light over my sitting area was hanging down from the ceiling by it's wires. It's obviously not supposed to be that way.

I'm not getting any electricity in there either. I checked the breaker box and the switch was tripped.

I really am not sure if I should leave the switch off or try to flip it back on and see what happens.

I suppose the light falling out of the ceiling caused it to trip.

Can someone tell me what to do until Dan gets home so he can deal with it?

Should I just leave the switch alone?

are the wires still connected? any bare wires?

yeah, they all look like they're connected. There's a bare copper wire but I'm assuming that one is supposed to be bare because the whole thing is exposed. There are no other bare wires, that I can see anyway.

If you need what else that breaker runs....can you just turn the power off to that light...then flip the breaker? If that light did not have power when it tripped, however, would leave it alone.

Why do you think it fell?

It knocked out the power to my whole master bedroom including my master closet & the sitting area. There's no power to any light or the ceiling fan or any of the outlets.

I suppose the light fell due to Fort Bragg shooting off their tunderboomers. It tends to knock the pictures off the walls sometimes.

That wire is always exposed. You can disregard it.

Did it bust the light bulb?

boob light? do they sell those at the porn store?

like this... http://www.rensup.com/Ceiling-Lights/99891.htm?adsrc=9000002

If the breaker is currently off, then turn the switch off for the exposed light, effectively killing any juice running to that light. You'll be fine to flip the breaker back after that.

Did that. :)

No.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Lions were never going Freeling over Miller for the same reason we wouldn't have taken Miller had Freeling not been on the board. Miller is a career RT Lions have a hole at RT, we have a hole at LT. If we took Miller, it would have been for him to backup Moton until he retires and/or we release him, so the best case scenario is it would have been a wasted 1st round pick for at least 1, if not 2 years.  At least Freeling has a shot at playing this year without injury ahead of him, he absolutely can win the LT job if he earns it, but Miller would have never supplanted Moton this year unless he got hurt.

      The Carolina Huddle

      What up y’all. I like threads like this where we can stroll down memory lane. I remember the insane amount of site traffic pre-crash when we signed Keyshawn Johnson, 06 I believe. Raging about the Cowboys Christmas Eve loss in 05 (Peppers touched that FG attempt as sure as Cotchery caught it). When I found the huddle I basically had a first born baby, now I’ve got one in college and one in high school. Life comes at you fast, but the Panthers and the Huddle has been a steady constant in my life for many years.  Those who have been here, y’all are cool with me any time any where.    Cheers, genitals!

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      By MartyClemons · Posted

      This is a weird post since it wasn’t like we got A’s across the board. We needed a QB and got a consensus top 2 player at that position. (I was pretty vocal that Stroud should’ve been the guy but…)  I think this draft we generally got better value. I’m not particularly optimistic on BY but another year in this offense playing with TMac he really needs to be a consistently average QB at a minimum
