RETIRED Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Dood! You too??? I was lurking and had to log in for this one! We've probably got different reasons, but I too, am looking for something to kill! Oh. Wait. I'm not one of your reasons, am I? You're not one of mine! Nono I'd turn to alcohol but I have no mixer! Frown

On a different note, RIP Don Cornelius. I loved Soooooul Train! Going back to lurking now. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Just been one of those days.... for every one!! Even my sister!! One of her employees came up missing about 22 bottles last night alone!! One of the customers ratted her out. Theft takes away from her yearly bonus!

Somebody here could probably help you better with the details, bot the only time I've been in your situation was when I went down to FL. All I had to do was push a button on their router and I was on. No need for a PW. Oh and you may be thinking of jules w/the UPS delivery tomorrow. Jeeze, I hope it's not that foolish magnet! I've got one of those coming, too. Can't wait to tell my UPS guy what he delivered. laugh out loud

OK! I need a man (or a knowledgeable woman)! I mentioned to my son the other day that the knob on the dryer (the dry, less dry setting) wasn't moving. The dryer just kept going. Then I realized it was because it was taking the clothes that long to dry. It's not getting hot. Can anyone tell me where to start my research? Thermostat, heater thingy? My washer was dead for about a month, when I figured I had nothing to lose trying to fix it myself. I did and was really proud of myself. I've discovered that sometimes, you just gotta be in the mood for that defecation though, y'know? Sorry this is so long.

Make sure it's not plugged up with lint first, but it sounds like the heating element..here a site you can look at...Smilie

Wish I knew what to do. It could be a number of things. A loose belt or wire even. All I would know to do is unplug it, take it aprt laying it out in order that you pulled it off and clean it looking for burned marks or oddities. Then put it back together and see. If that doesnt work it might be cheaper to go to the local used appliance center and get a new one for $100

I would start by checking the lint trap. If that is clogged, the heating element won't kick on. If the trap is clear, then it is probably the element. I am assuming it is an electric dryer. Most can be completed, in your home by you, with a simple google look up. It will take some tools, and some time, but the savings are hard to beat. There are also thermostats thru-out the drier that may be bad. Usually need more equipment to check those, but an appliance shop my be able to "bench" test them for you. Just mark them when you take them out, so you know where they go back in. Hope this was kind of helpful.
