Trying to figure out the Viking Love that Viking. However, trying to figure out the orientation of the intake hose, that tool tray, and the lid. It looks to me like the lid hinges forward to expose the tray, but then the intake hose would be in the compartment along with the tools. I am not...

Here's some other political cliches Dan Rather: "The documents may be false, but the story is true!" (Buh bye Dan.) Michael Moore: "The terrorists are freedom fighters!" "No War for Oil!" (Now the pipelines from Iraq directly to US freighters full of free oil are exactly where now?) "Bush...

Launderess great info! I can never get enough of how companies came to be and what happened to them. There is a dearth of that kind of information. Interestingly, I have a "Silex", no Proctor electric juicer!!!

Business Cliches My friend and I wrote a whole paper on these. Here are some highlights that I can remember: "There's gotta be some lead in the pencil" "My boss threw me under the bus with that client" "Sell the sizzle not the steak" "Everyone got caught in the propwash on that one" "Let's...

I am a O and M owner and this is all we cooked on the last 10 years in our old house. Of course, a smaller model, but it was great. My dad always was telling us how he feared the stove would catch on fire. It was great fun using the oven even more that it bothered my dad! I saw this model in...

Here's one to live by... Don't sweat the petty things, and don't pet the sweaty things.

I don't know what it is.... But my perception is opposite of what it should be, I think. Whenever we roll back the time, and night time "starts earlier", to me, the day in its entirety becomes MUCH LONGER. I don't know why that is, you would think the sensation would be that the days seem...

The Seventies were very sad! There could be a few items in there that are cool, but the floral patterns, always hated that. We went to New Fiesta ten years ago, because as many of you know, there was a mini-floral revival then too, albeit a different kind. I don't want freaking flowers on my...

That is very strange.... In my opinion, no way is that worth that. Mid 70s toaster oven? I don't get it. Shill bidders? I have a collection of toasters. The most I ever paid for one was $200 for an absolutely mint, like new Toast-a-Lator, the one with the little conveyor belt that moves the...

That's worth about $15 IMO.

knitwits.... I say go for it. My only advice on something like this is to have a steady job first, and do your dream in your spare time. Then when it kicks in, you go full time. If you don't, the lean times will kill you. Most startup businesses fail because of undercapitization and people jump...

Their refrigerator... in the later episodes when they moved into the new house, looks alot like my 1963 GE. Not sure though, but it does have the freezer on the bottom, which I think was pretty rare back then. Funny how we look to see these things. I remember seeing a long time ago a Little...

Excellent posts guys And it goes lock step with my previous rantings of people at WalMart with their carts overflowing with JUNK. Also as I have mentioned before, the many couples and women that I know that "gotta have" the Viking range and Sub-Zero refrigerator but rarely cook. I guess it's...

Misc thoughts..... So, that is what is behind the NYC shots in movies where there is steam coming up from manholes!!!!! Always wondered what that was, and this is all news to me. Here is an odd cooling story. About 20 years ago, my sister moved into an apartment that was a very old, although...

Error I meant Glendora, not Covina in above message.

Some misc. notes Years back, pre-internet, we were sitting around the office talking just like this about old cartoons. I mentioned Clutch Cargo, no one knew what I was talking about. When I mentioned that they matted in real human mouths, everyone laughed and basically did not believe me. As...

I loved Prince Planet! I know that was big in Australia too, as I was reading about it. I have on tape the Japanese version of it too (terrible copy but interesting). When I was a kid they would play every episode in chronological order. But I ALWAYS missed the very first one and the very last...

That can't be right.... or was you tongue firmly in cheek? The minimal would then be a two hour wash. Obviously, those times are in minutes and the timer is broken. KP

Pat here is some I think one of the later units played 45s... Very, very strange, I submit the following URL for your pleasure. http://ookworld.com/hiwayhifi.html

That ozone smell Absolutely remember that. When the cars ran for awhile, and there was that electric carbon oil smell to them. Now I run them, and there is not even a hint of that...but I remember it well. It must have been the coatings back then heating up and burning off. Plastics also...
