That Plastix stuff sounds like a combination of epoxy and super glue. I seem to remember buying an epoxy/2-part type glue the last time I was up here - can't remember what for or what I did with it... Senility moment again - but I'm sure it will come to me in a day or two.

If I have to buy something, I'll just buy a whole new toilet, but that severely goes against my desire not to produce junk for landfills. (It loses out to my desire to not support manufacturers that produce non-repairable items - and this is especially true in this case since all they have to do...

Broken toilet seat hinge (plastic). Can't just buy the hinge from the manufacturer, have to buy the entire toilet seat (special size/shape) for $50. So want to try gluing the plastic. Haven't found a definitive guide to gluing on the net - might be out there, but searching is just so difficult...

DADoES You scare me! ;)

I can empathize with that. I just have some sort of compulsion (illogical?) not to "personally/emotionally" endorse such things (Desperate Anything). If it was done on some other less manipulative show, I would not have a problem with it. To refer to another thread, if it was on MTM it would be...

Mrs. Bush And black might have hidden that ugly a$$.

Still won't make me watch the show. Just another attempt at exploitation in my book.

I find it unfathomable one could not remember, but maybe it makes a difference when your childhood was. I certainly remember the washer and dryer from my childhood - a wringer washer and a clothesline. It was lots of fun putting stuff through the wringer (with a stick to make sure your fingers...

Sort of curious - having MOL Kitchen-Aide appliances automatically translates to the Duet equivalent? Sorry for my lack of knowledge if that is a given. Makes me curious what a TOL Kitchen-Aide washer would be since I'm still trying to decide what to do regarding appliance upgrades/additions.

Noooooooooooo - I'm not going to go there...

Amy Klobuchar I remember Amy voting for something that supported Bush's war... I actually sent her office an email saying I regretted voting for her because of it. Now she does the "politically correct" thing and denounces it for the hometown viewers.

So the trucking companies pass it on to the customers/consumers. Then we'll probably change the way we do business - isn't that what the capitalists say we're supposed to do? We'll change to using more efficient means of transportation. We'll move to more locally grown/produced products. Hmmm...

Another number - Robert's you-tube link to Countdown said $190 billion to fix all the bridges. Certainly seems these people (newscasters/broadcasters/whatever) need to define what they are talking about. Thanks for the link, Robert. I only get to watch Countdown when I'm in Alexandria (or on...

Local news So today Pawlenty was "standing" at the same place where he vetoed the 2005 gas tax increase for road repair and said he would support a gas tax increase. The news also said his veto earlier this year of a gas tax increase for the same reason was not well-publicized, the one the...

Now, if the news programs actually publicized this... (My property taxes have gone up 40% since Pawlenty took office to pay for cuts in state aid, while the taxes on the rich have gone down. Of course when you've been laid off your job, it's easy to pay more property taxes...)...

Yes, Republocrats and Demlicans. Too often, there is no difference and rather than the agreement being good for the populace, it is only good for the rich and powerful.

Dangerous dams Now there's a calamity waiting to happen.

I voted for Ventura but was unhappy with some of his positions towards the end of his term and was getting tired of his unnecessarily rude/tactless statements. But after Pawlenty was elected, I wished Ventura was back. Pawlenty was the one who said he supported Bush and would still support him...

What about the Kitchen Aid washer (don't know which model)? I was told yesterday by an appliance store it was the same as the Duet?
