    When I got out of high school my circle was 220 pounds. I went almost immediately into the Army, they said we will knock that off of you in basic training .......... When I finished basic I weighted 220 pounds. I am near 74 years now and have gained a lot since. I am now 226.........:p
    We are the same age but not the same weight.

    As the little sister, and therefore frequently the "dustee"...I can state that it definitely did depend on that! ;)


    Oh you don't just have to be the little sister to be a "Dustee", especially when it is coming from the "Head of the Family" . . . During "family" trips (Parents/2 Girls/4 Boys), when we were speeding down the highway and all of a sudden we started to smell something horrible - well our father would close and lock all the windows, we knew who it came from - worse was in the dead of winter and it was freezing outside the car the windows were already closed, so Ya' didn't get a heads up about what was coming . . . NOT NICE ! ! ! :-x

    Here's another term for some of you to look up. I didn't know this one, but I'd bet quite a few guys do. I'm pretty sure that my 2 older brothers did, when they were in their teens at least and thought it was very funny to do.

    Crop dusting

    My wife has one of those breathing machines that she wears when she goes to bed. It pulls air in and sends it into a mask on her face. When I say it pulls air in... it also pulls odors in. When she starts cursing I pretend I am sleeping... it's so hard though because I am laughing inside.

    Microwave decided to crap out this morning. So I have some decisions to make. Replace my microwave, stove, and dishwasher at the same time since they are all over 19 years old? Or just replace the microwave? We are headed to my office after work to pick up the small microwave in my office to buy me some time. I'm tempted to get stainless steel but I'm weird in that I love my white applicances. So I need to decide that as well. But my fridge is white and not old. I really don't like the look of SS. Looks too industrial and dark and of course I've heard cleaning is harder. So yeah, stopping vape shopping was a good idea. This won't be cheap. I've been wanting new applicances so I think I'll go for it. Bye bye tax refund.

    I like stainless steel personally, but it is a PITA to keep clean.

    Did you check the fuse? Most crap out due to fuses. Just a thought? If I remember correctly you fixed your dryer. :)

    It makes a horrible noise when I turn it on. Definitely not the fuse. I'm not afraid to fix things, but this one is gone I do believe. And the handle broke off a few years ago. We are just simple people and make it work. It's time for a replacement for sure. One of the burners on the top of my stove has been out for probably a decade. :laugh: I know it's fixable but I'm not sure if y'all have noticed, I just don't have enough time to do all this and it's not my priority. New stove is in order. Of course I will have to pay for the install so it's not gonna be cheap.

    I used to repair microwaves before they got to the point where you could but new cheaper than repair old.
    If it a spluttering arcing noist ...........yip forget it.
    Pluse side if you need a couple of reall strong magnets tear apart the mag tube. They are in there.
