Default ok, I am losing it.

I am sitting in my recliner watching TV and all of the sudden, the lights attached to my ceiling fan came on. they are normally operated via remote control. I am the only one home and the remote is on the table.

I thought, strange, and let it be. Since I started typing this, the lights have gone out and come back on twice. I think I have lost it now...or maybe it's because I am watching Judge Judy.

Sounds like it's time to contact the other specialist, Mr. Electrician.

Our ceiling fan and light in our front room does that sometimes. I think one of the neighbors have a similar light and their remote triggers our lights, or someone's garage door is turning the lights on.

Or, it could be the alien microwaves.

Has the mystery been solved? Do we need to call in Scooby Doo and the Gang? I love a good mystery.
