While you are thinking.....

YOU HAVE 5 NEW MESSAGES!

Message 1: Your meat is ready

Message 2: Your meat is now overcooked. Where are you?

Message 3: Your meat is on fire! Why didn't you build a thermal or timer switch in to me! Oh the pain, the pain!

Message 4: It's all ok now, the fire department are here and have managed to save most of your house.

Message 5: The firemen were hungry and ate the meat.
