I'd bet you a donut that the rubber cord is cooked crispy where it passes over the lamp in the square recessed fixture.

Tried to give you a greenie Jim, but need to spread it around.

I was a Union Carpenter in the Orlando, Florida Local in 1970 so I should be retired too, right? ha. ha.

I thought the joke was funny too!!

Not quite crispy, more like lightly toasted, like a perfectly roasted marshmello.
