Schrodinger's Bagel


I burned two bagels today. We need a new toaster.
For the non-physicists among you, the "Perfect" equation is the time-dependent Schrodinger wave equation. In this context, it means, "Somewhere between 1 and 2 is the perfect setting, but it changes each time, and you can't predict what it's going to be, so the only thing you can do is to pick a setting and see what happens."
Of course, thanks to Murphy's Law, it's always the wrong setting.
