The oven light appeared to have burned out.  When I went to remove the bulb, I found that it indeed was NOT burned out, but instead had come unglued from the screw base.  I was able to remove the old base and replace the bulb, but a quick visual of this bulb revealed the filament was still intact.

I hate to throw out something that's possibly still useful.  So using an old line cord that was laying around, for a few cents in electricity, solder, heatshrink tubing, and electrical tape, the bulb can continue to live.

So now it's a bulb at the end of a cord.  And I have absolutely no use for it.  Does anyone have any good ideas as to what it can be used for?  When the filament finally does burn out, I can cut the cord off and keep it for some other project.

The bulb was either 25 or 40 watt, I don't know which, and never bothered to plug it into the watt meter to find out.
