Got the Atlantis moved in and I am quite impressed. Very fast in drying and has a nice throaty rumble to it. I have always liked the way the dryers didn't have a handle. Three things that suprised me. #1 There is no bell or signal to tell you when the dryer has shut off or cooling down. That...

Sears,R.I.P. I worked at the Sears bump and dent in Kitchener 20 years ago. Got some amazing deals on stuff and got better hours than working at the main store. What a shame. You would think with less and less competition they would have survived? Going to unload the Kenmore dishwasher and watch...

My Kenmore dryer is only drying on the lowest setting and needs a new element. The dryer was a lemon from day one. I am not willing to put any money into it. Have a chance to get a Neptune. Is $50 too much? Are they reliable? It will not get a great deal of use other than in the winter. The...

Waiting for the Vikings.

In my small area every town had a Sears order office. The one in town closed a few years back and Sears would put a depot in any store that would take it. At one time it was in our local grocery store,the back of the thrift store and a Quickie Mart. The closest one to me now is a 17 minute rural...

I don't like raw tomatoes either. I am going to make this for sure. I think I would be tempted to toss a green pepper in the mix. Kevin,still making your buttermilk meat loaf. Still the best. Was at my mom's house and she made a meat loaf. You could see it bubbling away in it's own grease. When...

My public grade school did not have many secret rooms. There was a small room off the stage that held spots equipment and the doors opened under the stage and long racks were pulled out full of stacking chairs. The only room of interest was the tiny janitor's room opposite the boy's bathroom...

Why don't you use the Dominion?

I buy Bar Keepers Friend at Home Hardware. I am sure Canadian Tire would have it too. It works great on fiber glass tubs.

Glad to see the gas station glasses are still in use. Will have a toast to you this holiday weekend with the ones you gave me. Like the Maxwell House Hugga Mugga mug. I had two mugs and the sweatshirt.

I am just finishing painting a house with five dogs. No problem with the dogs but the home owner was kinda lack with the housekeeping. As I was leaving today I noticed that the dogs had been peeing on my drop sheets. I knew the homeowners were gone for the day and the washer was available. I...

Did the user have any control over the machine after it was loaded with products? If you chose a small load with a black sweater would you still get a large dose of detergent and bleach? Did different cycles only dispense bleach?

I have always thought that the 18 inch dishwashers were so cute. A friend of mine had one 20 years ago. I could not believe my eyes that dishwashers came in a smaller size. She could load that thing like no tomorrow. I got mine last summer that was free on the side of the road also. I took it to...

How well did they work?

Glad to see the the gas station Canadian Club glasses are still in use.

I just wet myself. I want that dishwasher.

I did not know they sold big appliances? I have only been in the local Woolco in the 90's and it was just blenders and vacuums. At first glimpse I thought the square wringer looked like my Mcclary. Googled and it looks like it.

I bought a long suit jacket when they were in style back in the 90s. Liked it so much I couldn't get rid of it. I have wore it several times for Halloween. It has had fake blood on it, talc you name it. I have probably washed it 4-5 times. Never a problem. The lining does get wrinkled but you...

I found Ronnie Claire on Face Book. I like to think I actually chatted with her a few times? Both her books are very good and I was lucky enough to get them autographed before she died a few months ago. According to Ronnie,Grandma Walton's sneer of a smile was the result of one too many bad face...
