Re: My wife's new washing machine!

If memory serves, there was a movie where the kids decided to open the
washing machine lid while the baby sitter isn't looking, and "whoosh!",
water, soap and clothing everywhere.  Nevermind the fact that could never
happen :)

Our washing machine was definately designed by Audi electricians.  It's had
2 uh, ECU replacements and still does weird stuff every once in a while(the
geniuses at Whirlpool never thought to seal the electronic keypad to the
unit with a rubber seal, so all the good+strong detergents get through and
zap the circut board.)  Remember all the flak Audi got for having one of
the first "computer-controlled" engines?  We got one of the first
computer-controlled washing machines.  Far from an improvement.
Speaking of spin cycles, ours needs help :)  It tries to spin the basket
before all the water is out and flails miserably...

The weirdest stuff comes up on the Q list...remember the whole "Foul"
incident involving a feathery creature and a brand new, mirror-smooth A4? :)
(hint: _mirror_ :)
