Everybody Needs an Uncle Ed

We've had lots of drama around our house the last two weeks. Our dryer stopped working. We've actually been drying our clothes the old fashioned way by hanging them out on a clothesline.

We called a repair guy, but it was so much money to fix the old one that we ordered a new one. One problem. The new one won't fit down our stairs. Not even close! And we can't even get the old one out since we renovated our basement.

Oops!

Uncle Ed to the rescue!

Ed Schmidgall found a replacement belt, flew out to DC, and fixed the thing!

Everybody needs an Uncle Ed :)

Todd,

A clothesline is when you tackle someone in football with your arm right around the neck :) It makes you say ouch!

It's also an ancient device used to hang clothing :)

Anybody have any other definitions?

Mark

Have to comment on my own post :)

Josiah was just banging the brick in our backyard and I said, "Josiah, don't break the brick because we won't be able to fix it."

Josiah said, "Dad, Uncle Ed can fix anything!"

Too funny!
