How lucky you are. I've had similar troubles with my apartments in Manhattan, none of which could ever house such a luxury as a dryer. Luckily we had dry cleaners to pick up and deliver (like Benny's in Bay). I'm sure I've seen this episode on some britcom or other (Black Adler?). Very well, have a pleasant evening my friend. -RSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301858169187263690.post-22048185607125037282008-04-04T05:59:00.000-04:002008-04-04T05:59:00.000-04:00This is indicative of the peril that he-who-shall-...This is indicative of the peril that he-who-shall-not-be-named places in the paths of new shepherds. The insidious aspect of this tactic is the often involvement of the innocent and helpful. It is notable that direction of this assault is always oblique, never frontal. The adversary always plays the scene like a chess master. At his best he utilizes a series of simple, but time consuming, setbacks to inexorably guide his victim to some ultimate perfidy. Should the sufferer fail he celebrates. Should the prey prevail he simply collects his tools for yet another go around. The experienced proceed directly exorcism.Troglodyteushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17857794477598373164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301858169187263690.post-36321662956994088802008-04-03T13:42:00.000-04:002008-04-03T13:42:00.000-04:00Well, they are perverse, but appliances are a para...Well, they are perverse, but appliances are a paragon of ease compared to windows-based computers....<BR/><BR/>RFSJRFSJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15164772153139719659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301858169187263690.post-44245276410409759482008-04-03T09:00:00.000-04:002008-04-03T09:00:00.000-04:00Oh the perversity of inanimate objects!!Oh the perversity of inanimate objects!!Doorman-Priesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06407399232593479871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301858169187263690.post-75300110929631654962008-04-03T01:18:00.000-04:002008-04-03T01:18:00.000-04:00Reminds me of the time my one handy friend and I d...Reminds me of the time my one handy friend and I decided to install our apartment-sized dishwasher... measured the width, cut out the cabinet, brought it into the kitchen and discovered it was an inch TALLER than the counter.<BR/><BR/>Well my friend -- like yours -- was not to be defeated... he cut ramps out of the floor to get it under that counter. We finally got it in, and it wouldn't start!<BR/><BR/>He pooh-poohed my suggestion that it may just be the latch and fell asleep with the manual on his lap. The next day the store came and confirmed that -- in fact -- there was a wire in the latch disconnected and (thinking the door was open) the machine wouldn't start. So I'm not TOTALLY useless.<BR/><BR/>happy tumbling!Christian Paolinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02191300934950572656noreply@blogger.com
