The dryer stopped spinning Monday evening. A quick disassemble and troubleshoot revealed that the drum belt had broken. Since the dirty laundry wasn't stacked up too much it wasn't a dire emergency. So, I decided to forgo the 1 hour trip to my nearest appliance parts place and order one on-line, instead. It arrived today, was quickly installed, and the dryer is back in order.

I was pleased with the on-line parts place, Repair Clinic. The price was reasonable and delivery was fast.

Plus, I got two freebies - refrigerator magnets with their web address displayed.

I consider myself a decent handyman and do-it-yourselfer. There's not much I won't take on around the house. Today's do-it-myself task involved replacing a leaky shower head. A simple enough task consisting of unscrewing the old one from the 1/2" pipe end, cleaning any old residue from threads and snugging on the new shower head.

But then I remembered I would need to wrap Teflon tape on the pipe thread before screwing on the shower head. I had a roll of Teflon tape so no problem there. But then it was that age old quandary. Which way do I wrap the tape? Thank goodness for the Internet as a quick search gave me the answer.

Woo Hoo!

How anyone can vote for a Democrat is beyond me
