Welcome Justin!! You have an awesome collection! Of course, I'm partial to coffee makers, so you are a man after my own heart!! You'll find that the Arizona contingent are some of most hospitable, kind, and fun folks around!! Will your home be on the official tour in March? ;-) Once again a...

Dick: That has got to be the most gorgeous Kenmore that I have ever seen! The lighting is fab, and the pristine exterior is to die for! That lovely streamlined look gives nothing away about the aggressive agitation underneath the hood! Happy washing and hope to see you in Tucson!!

I hate making a double post, but... You are so right on Gary! Parents are not only leaving the childrearing to school teachers, but are jumping on the instructors for disciplining their offspring! Go figure!! I have a friend who was a teacher in the public school system. Her class was...

Allen: They'll never fly AirTran again? Boy did AirTran luck out. They will probably have even more ridership, as customers know there will be no "screamers" on their flights!!

No turn-down a turn off? If that guy didn't have the strength to turn down his own bedspread, how was he going to find the energy to consumate his marriage? Honey puleeze!

Toddler Tantrums! I viewed this story as both a parent and a airline customer. I think that it is inappropriate for parents to take small children on a flight if the tots can't behave. There is nothing worse than being cooped up on an airplane with a wailing child. It's like being in a soup can...

Hey Dan: Nice find! Love the copper too! I have a Sunbeam Cooker/Fryer that is set up the same way. It has a fryer basket but no removable insert (like a crockpot). I use mine for chilis, soups, and stews. I have some of those Reynolds crockpot liners, but have never attempted to put them in a...

What an awesome machine Ben!! You'd better put a raincoat on when you lift that lid! LOL Congrats on getting a beautiful and unique washer in such fine working order!! How about an Iowa wash-in (in the summer, of course)! ;-)

That's a beautiful set, and your price is very reasonable Dwight! You should have no trouble finding someone to love them!! Wish I was closer!

I have a Bosch that does a pretty good job. The upper rack naturally slants, so unless the glasses/cups have a pronounced indentation on the top, there is usually no remaining water or schmutz. I still pre-rinse, although not as much as I used to (thanks Bob)! I don't have the luck that many of...

Paper or Cloth? Ralph: Try using a small stack of about five paper disc percolator filters in your Coffeemaster. If you are not totally comfortable, experiment with a potful of water first. I'm telling you, it really works. I've used them in the C-20 and C-30. I use just one filter in the...

Matt: I'm so sorry about the loss of Jock. I know exactly how you feel. When we lost our beloved Sheltie, Katie a number of years ago, I could not even go outside into the backyard. There were too many memories and it was much too painful. Although there have been many pets in our lives since...

So Rich... Does this basket filter take the place of the flat filters that came with the C-30? You say that you don't have to use cloth or paper filters with this?

Hey Kim! Do you have a pic of the basket? My C-30 has the flat mesh filter, although I recall that one of the members here had a C-30 with a basket-type filter. All of the filters are usually inserted in the upper vessel, since the hot water rises to the top, brews, then falls back down. No...

Cool Brian!! My stomach is growling just looking at your breakfast set up!!! What kind of toasters are those? Talk about toast for a crowd!! Those mixettes are great and weighty. I have a Westbend that has the same design that I got for 25 cents at a garage sale. It's one of my favourite...

God bless the restaurant workers of the world!! I can't imagine a more physically and mentally draining job. It's all about respect. For some reason, there are those that walk into an establishment and feel that a waiter/waitress is a synonym for slave labour. It makes my skin crawl when I see...

Hey, I'm here!! David! I didn't see which Sunbeam Coffeemaster you have. The process is the same, but the C-50's have "ears" which clamp the upper vessel to the bottom pot. I know that the gaskets can become brittle over the years, and I feel the same way everyone else does. Why can't someone...

Happy Birthday Australia!! We Texans have always had a special love for Australia! Our similar terrain, climates, and hardy pioneer folk make us brothers and sisters!! I hope that the next 219 years bode well for your country and your countrymen!!

Oh Dear.... In my caffeine-induced haste, I forgot to give kudos to Terry!! He is the creator of the most fabulous desserts!! Do forgive me!! I'll have an extra slice of whatever you make!! :-D Hugs!

Congrats Mike! Awesome!! There's nothing like getting that first vintage appliance!! I hope you enjoy it for many years to come!! Todd: You are a gentleman and a scholar, and there's darned few of us left! ;-) Your generosity speaks volumes! Have fun guys!
