I just heard back from the sellers. They just bought the house last week-end. The fridge does work, but they have no clue as to the age. They said the house was built in 1959, so maybe they are assuming it's an "old" one. Well.. it is over 20 years old I guess.... Ben, it would have to take a...

Yup... Ben, When I first saw the ad I thought the fridge looked too modern, but it threw me off because it's Pink. Never thought about a repaint. Duh, I should have considered that possibility because some friends of my moms are trying to sell the appliances from a house they bought as they are...

Saw this on the local Craigslist. Too bad not more pix, but it does look cool! http://omaha.craigslist.org/hsh/334301805.html

Heh! Dude.. I hear ya on that! That damn washer is "quirky". Once in awhile it will NOT fill on rinse cycle. The water just runs straight thru it. I am told tho that is because the drain hose goes straight into the drain hole in the floor and is not elevated. I discovered it won't fill on the...

My bad.... I talked with Greg about the washer tonight, and tried it out again. I must have been having a "senior moment" when I tried it out earlier. Like I said.. I never do loads in gentle. Anyway.. the washer DOES work on gentle cycle, Odd cycle tho.. you set it for 8 minutes, and it does...

I just wanted to get your opinion on a washer problem I discovered today, and get your thoughts and your opinion on the washer itself. I have a circa 1997 Amana washer/dryer set. I can't find the model number on the washer, but the matching dryer is model number LE7121WM if that gives you an...

I had a 78 Lincoln Town Car with the "Opera" windows. It even had the original window sticker and was $13400 new. Quite a bit in 1978 dollars. I loved mine for the ride and people got out of your way with that grill comin down on em'... LOL!!! My main complaint on that car was that it SUCKED in...

There was an article in the new "Details" titled "Are you a Douchebag?" and I would have to say you are if you shower in your underwear. Everything is bigger in the midwest, so boxer briefs wouldn't cut it for us if we were trying to hide anything... LOL! I wonder if Rosie showers in her unders...

I agree.... There have been items popping up as of late on eBay that are wayyyyyyyyy overpriced. This one is a from a "newbie" seller, and they seem to ALL do that. The freezer doesn't even work. Good luck in getting it fixed. I have a 1953 Philco Fridge out in the garage and I can't get anyone...

also, it was nice meeting Dan. I hope to make it over tonight for another visit. Fremont was fun. There is a nice "antique/thrift" store that I love and we all found good stuff. None of us are lacking in "Kitchen Klatter" tips now...

Ben.. Would they look good in MY basement??? LOL!!!!!

I have that same model and LOVE it!

I've gone retro in the kitchen thanks to Greg. I have a 1956 Frigidaire Fridge, A 1956 GE Mobile Maide dishwasher, and a 1955-1957 era GE stove, and an early 50's GE toaster oven. I have no back-ups, altho I did buy a small chest freezer and put it in the basement, as the Frigidaire lacks a...

Westy, I have both "Hey Remember" segments on tape, but not the Decorating Cents one. Robert! Please post the segment!!!!!!!!!

I think it's a cooktop/oven....

HA! Well... I see it has a bidder now. I was going to bid on it, but saw it has a bidder already, so perhaps it will get a more loving home than mine. I did email the seller tho and asked him to contact me if the current bidder "flaked out".

I bought a whole bunch of flourescents to change over most of my bulbs. Home depot had a sale. I changed out my "office",bedroom, and basement. I did NOT change out the kitchen and bathroom as I did not like the light they put out in those rooms. Perhaps if I got another brand. The bulbs I...

Well Dave, I love "Fresh Start" as well. My grandma used it when it first came out, and contined to use it for years. I was able to find it at 2 stores here in Omaha, but I fear it may be no longer be made, and what I'm seeing on the shelves is remaining stock. Fresh Start was a Colgate product...

Omaha had a rough year in 75. They started it with I believe the blizzard of ALL blizzards in January 75, and then the tornado which about wiped out 72nd Street. That storm was really bad in that, IIRC, had more than one touchdown and in the fact it stayed on the ground so long and traveled up 2...

it's my area.... hummmmm......
