Does anyone hear "the hum" in their house?

DD - Psychosis is a given at this point, but could I have infected my wife? I didn't know it was contagious!

O2bnVegas - Good idea with the electric company. I turned off the main circuit breaker in my house, but the sound continued so I am convinced it is something in the ground or outside my house. Maybe it is global warming?

Umm, . . . yes, . . . or, perhaps, the wife infected jphelan.

folie รก deux (translation: madness shared by two)
__Shared psychotic disorder, a rare and atypical psychotic disorder, occurs when an otherwise healthy person (secondary partner) begins believing the delusions of someone with whom they have a close relationship (primary partner) who is already suffering from a psychotic disorder with prominent delusions.

DonDiego recommends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, . . . i.e. that Mr. and Mrs. jphelan just accept their shared condition and accept that no harm is likely to result.

As is his custom, poor old DonDiego provides this analysis and recommendation totally free of charge and DonDiego rejects any responsibly for the, perhaps inevitable, mayhem likely to result from failure to treat the seemingly innocuous psychosis.
Do you ever catch a whiff of maple syrup? Could be bees nesting in the walls or attic. Happened to a neighbor of mine, had over one thousand bees in his walls. A local beekeeper removed them for free but did extensive damage to the walls in an attempt to locate them all.

A lot of the text I read here strangely appears to be underlined. Maybe I should double my meds.
All the postings I read here are underlined. Didn't want to say anything lest someone thought I was losing it. LOL
Do you have $40 bill?

Does anyone else have this? My google search seems to indicate, I am not the only one seeing this:

WikiPedia - the "hum"

Hum Database and map



DELETE II?
A bum transformer could be the culprit. We had one of those in our backyard(s), shared, and that thing started humming and got worse, especially once it started getting colder. It finally blew one night which was quite the spectacle for me, scared my mom to death.
