How can you do this to Bacon?

Another sign of the impending apocalypse. Rachael Ray actually has a recipe for microwave bacon here. No EVOO was used! That is not the best part of it though. The reviews are right up there in Three Wolf Moon shirt territory. A sampling:

Tried this recipe last night. The bacon was great, but the paper towels tasted awful.

That's not what "late night bacon" means in my house.

I don't stay up very late. Can you post a recipe for early morning bacon? Also I'm new to the whole microwave thing. Do you have a recipe for microwave popcorn? The bag says to stop when the interval between pops is 2-3 seconds, but the pops always happen too fast for me to start counting.
