A Elegant Solution

Remember a few days ago when I told you about the neighbor who is still burning his Christmas lights every night?  Well, he still is, and he still turns them off for an hour or so right about sundown.

After watching the lights come back on the other evening she said,
"I'll bet they have an electric range.  They turn the lights off just about time to start supper so they don't blow a breaker, and then they turn them back on when they are through."
There might be some other reason, but that explanation makes more sense than anything I can imagine.
Like I said, elegant.
