    I figured it out: It's that British Popcorn you smuggled illegally into this country. It can't handle the American microwaves.........

    Metric popcorn won't work here in the colonies; it needs to be the native stuff here...

    I believe, I may be wrong but I think the sequence goes a bit like this:

    1. You plug it in (assuming it's assembled and ready to go, and not from Ikea)
    2. You place/pour your cooking oil into the popper. (See picture instructions)
    3. You place you "unpopped" popcorn kernals into the popper. (See picture instructions)
    4. You turn it on. (the machine).
    5. You wait...... (sing a song as you wait, maybe "Come Fly with Me")............
    6. You see the "fluffy stuff" all of a sudden start to appear (no, not the crowd at the Bull and Whistle roof top)
    7. You have made popcorn.

    'nuff said.

    I hope this helps.

    I give up with this country. You buy a popcorn making machine that wont make popcorn until you put popcorn in it?

    Its a bit like buying a bread making machine that you have to put a loaf in for it to make bread. Talk about third world countries. I will have a cheese sandwich instead.

    Now, you do understand that when you take the bread out of the package, there will be no cheese in between, that's up to the end user to configure as needed.

    Don't even ask for a grilled cheese sandwich,

    The cheese in the package DOES NOT COME FROM THE FACTORY "GRILLED"!

    Get one packet of wotsits.
    Sit comfortably and consume.

    Why the "Macaroni Grill" restaurant of course.
    They push your cheese though a grill, and voila, "grilled cheese"...

    Don't throw it in the pool as you might hit the duck or the barracuda! Especially if you plugged it in....

    Well if it is the National Ensign, you come to attention. If it is Ensign Pulver then keep him away from the laundry room.... Have you seen the movie "Mister Roberts"? It's a real oldie.....

    I want to know where all the chit I ordered online is at this moment! I'm certain some border monkey is test piloting my kit and delaying its immediate arrival into my hot little hands.

    I demand instant gratification.

    I thought it only needed to be made in the USA to be called bourbon. Scotch needs to be made in Scotland, too. Wikipedia wouldn't lie would they?

    If you talk to the distillers in KY they will tell you that bourbon is made there and Scotch whiskey is made everywhere else. I have been through many of the distilleries and have been told this. Right or not I still drink it. Jim Beam and Maker's Mark is preferred
