         The life and times of Mark and Paula Persons

Thursday, January 19, 2012:  How do you know if the dishes in a dishwasher are clean or dirty?  After thinking it through for a while, lodge maintenance man Mark came up with a solution.  He installed a switch on the washer front panel with a knob and label.  Is the switch wired to anything?  Answer: No, it doesn't need to be.  All it does is tell anyone the answer at a glance.  The switch is turned to clean whenever the washer is started and then turned to dirty when the washer is emptied and ready to accept another load.

After talking about this, it was learned that some homes have two dishwashers so clean dishes can go straight to the dinner table without visiting the cupboard first and then put in the other washer when they need to be cleaned.  Mark and Paula agreed that was a bit over the top!   


Quote of the day:  Simple problems sometimes have simple answers.  Mark    Just 58 days until St. Patrick's Day. < Back to previous story Ahead to next story >
