    Have we finally grown a pair of balls?

    Toggles....totally agree with Rule #1 above!! Really, who gives a damn? This is a public website, kids do have access to read it. Some of you have posted things here that I wouldn't want my dogs to read, let along my kids, if I had them. And believe me, NOTHING offends me, and I won't be one...

    GE Filter Flo Question

    It's actually a pretty easy mechanism to work on....IF you can get it apart...that is the challenge.

    Gay Marriage on the federal level

    What would be funny is if other countries with whom the US does business pressures it to provide "human rights" to all, just the way the US does to everyone else. The ultimate hypocrites.

    Gay Marriage on the federal level

    I won't count on the Supremes handing down any ruling favorable to us. After all, racial discrimination isn't cool, but discrimination against our kind is perfectly okay.

    Big Spider Attacks Daddy!

    Brown recluse is very dangerous, but also tough to miss cause they're kind of big and ugly. That said, I'm no fan of killing any creature just because I'm is afraid of it. Scoop 'em up and dump 'em outside. I'm not partial to our Florida state bird - the palmetto bug - but I don't go around...

    US lifted hiv travel ban Jan 4th

    One of the most hypocritical laws of all times....the country that is the self-proclaimed leader in fighting HIV/AIDS through research and "tolerance/education" bans travel for HIV infected people. Since I'm a big fan of putting your money where your mouth is, it's about time this piece of trash...

    Heat pump question

    A good quality heat pump (modern one) will work well down into the teens if it is sized correctly. It is 25 degrees here tonight, and my heat pump has the house at 70 degrees and is having no problem keeping up during this sustained cold snap. It continues to cycle on and off during most of the...

    Some West Coaster needs to save this:

    That machine is a mid-70s GE Potscrubber clone, right down to the metal wash arm at the bottom and the push-to-start brown dial. It should clean fairly well, but expect to find "yibbles" on the top rack due to it's lack of filtration. Noisy as well, but reliable and built like a tank to last a...

    Westinghouse FL lover saying "hello"...

    Does anyone know what the capcity of the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s and 1980s Westinghouse FL were? Were the older machines smaller than the later models? It's very hard to tell from the shapes of their drums. Were the later models a 2.5 or 3 cu. ft size?

    Ok, you figure this out, she lost the agitator when washing a comforter?

    The handwash agitator was underneath the regular agitator, so you would remove the regular agitator to get the handwash effect. If I remember, the handwash agitator had very thin vanes that reduced turnover substantially. The RCA washers were, for at least some of their run, Hotpoint designs...

    Wrong Christmas Presents For Employees???

    I think most of you have this wrong. You don't give one a gift with the expectation of anything in return. Yes, it's nice to be appreciative and grateful, and to express that to the gift giver. You give a gift because you want to...because you appreciate the person, the job they did, or just...

    Oxydol Powder...the most expensive detergent in the world?

    The bleach component in Oxydol is oxygen bleach, not chlorine bleach. It's safe for any fabric.

    Ok, you figure this out, she lost the agitator when washing a comforter?

    THat is a Hotpoint designed washer with the removable hand wash agitator. The dope lost it?? How do you lose a damned agitator? Maybe she eventually found it under her bed???

    GE smalls at your retailers in time for Holiday Gifting

    They actually seem to be pretty well made, and they do look nice. The food processor ain't no Cuisinart, weighs less than half what my Cuisinart 14 cup does, but they look half way sturdy. They are only at WalMart, and yes, they are made in China.

    Houston has a lesbian mayor!

    Absolutely correct Keven....no money and no vote, until their responsibilities and promises are fulfilled. Obama may have meant every word he said regarding gay rights, and I believe he did, his party won based on some of those promises. And while he may not be the deciding factor, as the...

    Houston has a lesbian mayor!

    It's unfortunate that such tactics are not confined just to the Republican party. It's being seen now in both New York and New Jersey, where Democratic congresses are blocking votes on gay civil marriage. What's worse, both taxpayer and campaign contribution dollars are spent on smear campaigns...

    Glitch w/ Travlincub's Hotel Thread 25770

    Well I'm sure you can explain the situation in a more sophisticated and mature fashion without resorting to that. Or not? This is an open site to which kids have access to read.

    Good Riddance to Bad Rubbish!!!

    I use the Casual/Delicate cycle for a single set of sheets...does a fine job without all the scary agitation of the normal or other cycles. I usually wash a set of king and a set of queen sheets with 8 pillowcases altogether and use the "bulky items" cycle. They seem to wash just fine. I thought...
