The Woz – License Plate
Went to Home Depot the other night and found “the Woz” on a license plate. Is it really him? Nope…not sure who it is but my Apple nerd hat came out and I had to capture this.

New Washing Machine. YES!!!
Our old washing machine was dying a slow death. It was a Maytag and it served us well for a long time. But even the best servant need to be retired.
So we went on the hunt and found a new GE front loader with 3.8 cubic(but it’s round!!!) feet of space.
Our friendly sales guy at Home Depot hooked us up on a great deal. It was delivered today and we’re washing our first load in it.
Now, before you start using it, always check the connections. My dad was here to receive the new washer as my wife and I were at work. Well, he called me and said “they didn’t mark which one is hot or cold”. So he just plugged them in. Well, he had a 50/50 shot of getting it right and……he didn’t. So when we got home, we check it out and guess what….THEY DID mark it. There’s a big H and C. I guess he was thinking of C for Chaud and H for HFroid (silent h?). Alas, we fixed the hoses and started our first load. It’s the quietest thing I’ve never heard!
This week in review – Oct 20-26, 2008
- Dexter is still the best show going around. Season 3 is well on its way. It doesn’t have the same feel as seasons 1 & 2, but if it did, we’d all be getting bored by now. I just hope he starts killing more people again.
- 2 year olds are great. Potty training them is not. We had our first “floaters” in the bathtub the other night. No other big accidents yet, but I’m sure there are more to come.
- My wife was waiting for a parking spot at Costco and there was a car in front of her waiting for a spot as well. So two cars in a row with their turn signals on and 2 cars leaving their spots….when a 3rd car comes out of nowhere. So the lady in front pulls into her spot, then the “crazy” lady pulls into the spot my wife was waiting for. My wife waits for the lady to exit her vehicle (just to hear this reasoning!!!). She says to my wife, well that person took my spot so this is only fair. Her husband bowed his head in shame and walked on without his wife. Oh yeah…my wife had the kids in the car too and ended up having to park a good distance away.
- Had dinner with my parents on Saturday. I got my gift from them, a new shed for my backyard. I’ll be ordering it this week. Hopefully the rain stops for a bit this week so we can try to build this monster. Perhaps some pics to follow.
-Finally got around to installing my rear surround speakers. That only took 3 months to do! The rear center should be another few months I’m sure.
