Does that mean the bulb in the storage room is original to the house when you purchased it 25 years ago?

Now I'm wondering if maybe we thought a bulb was burned out when it wasn't, though. We may have sent a bulb to a premature death in the past. |

You probably changed it before you had renters/second entrance.

Nah, those have been there since WWII. (Well, the renter has changed over time, but not the entrance.) We had a renter the day we moved in. I think the previous landlord just had the renter come up the stairs to turn the light on, which was not going to happen on our watch.

Are you going put a motion controlled bulb in the storage room now?
Now that you know it's on all the time. |

Commenting before I read it, I'm hoping that this is as entertaining as the missing sock story was.

Reading that I have a vision in my head of Buffalo Bill's basement.

Your story reminds me of the gasoline in the light bulb scene in The Longest Yard. 1974 version. Very pleased that you didn’t catch on fire.

I was thinking this was going to be a lot creepier.
I thought I had a poltergeist earlier this year when I heard advertisements playing from the living room at 3 AM, after I had turned the TV off. That's what I get for leaving uTorrent running on my laptop. |

Then there is the scene from The Godfather II, where a young Vito Corleone, played by Robert Deniro, uses the ruse of a burnt out lightbulb to distract the leader of the Black Hand as he assassinates him.
1974 movies have made me wary around lightbulbs. |
