The "heater thingy" in our clothes dryer died last week. Of course, I had a full load of laundry in it and another finishing up in the washer. To boot, I was packing for the long, holiday weekend away with my honey. Murphy is alive and well.

We all know that nothing is made "like it used to be" with the exception of Toyota trucks. And, yes, that's just my opinion, not the opinion of this paper. Mom always said that if you take care of things they last longer. I don't know what we were doing wrong with the dryer, but I don't really think we did anything to shorten its pitifully short life.
