Now now.... it's a cleaner topic than most!

I had no idea there were so many questions about it...

Procter and Gamble were no fools I see!

If "warm" is still too hot for your clothes you can tell if the sleeves won't bend, the buttons pop off and you can't sit down without help! :p

Ahhhh! So THAT'S what it is, it isn't the cheesecake and cookies after all!

(oh and no to ironing sheets, but I used to send sheets out to the dry cleaner to be washed, starched and pressed . . . 'way too expensive, though)

Just the other day

I was washing my keyboard. I took it out early in the spin cycle though because it was too noisy. :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:

just some QTips and some rubbing alcohol should be enough to clear up any gummy crap that has gotten into your keyboard[and it dries very quickly,too]

!!! By god, you're right! You know, it being such a health food and all, one ought to just serve it as the main course, get the good stuff right away, you know.

Laundry: I like the Euro washers, they have a cycle that brings clothes to just under the boiling point, which is particularly great for sheets and towels. The machines use your hot water from the hot water tank, but they also have a heater inside that brings the water to a much higher temperature.

I no longer have the Euro style machine, but still use the tried-and-true old-fashioned method of hot for whites, sheets and towels, warm for darks, and cold for delicates.
