How timely is your question! Just got back from Best Buy. I had narrowed it down to the Maytag or the Bosch, but ended up with the front loading Whirlpool Duet Steam in white off the floor for cost. It was on special and we got 30% off that price....end of season special! It is 53" tall with the pedestal...I have a 55" clearance before the bottom of the overhead cabinet, so it works perfectly! Delivery is Wednesday! :clap:

;-)...like you, I am starting a load, now.
That one's not on sale here. The LG is. Online it looks like the Whirlpool is 38" high without the pedestal.

Just curious. If they are side-by-side, do the doors swing the same way or opposite ways so it is easier to move the heavy wet laundry to the dryer without having the door in the way?:idontno:

Really? :lol:

My Texas grandfather used to sleepwalk. On several occasions he went to the neighbor's house and took their dishes out of the kitchen cabinet and put them on the counter. :idontno: He had no memory of doing this.

Usually before a major exam according to architect boyfriend who had to take a lot of the same classes! I can't believe it was even explicit enough for him to understand :biggrin:

The pedestal is 15" high (has a drawer in it). Yes, the doors open opposite one another.

I had been to two other places looking and Best Buy is the only place I saw the LG. It was our first choice at BB until we saw the special on the Whirlpool.

Oh happy day!!! I heard you have a laundress headed your way. :wave:

Daughter just sent me this link. She says it classifies as food porn.

Also, look at the photos for the salad at The Pioneer Woman Cooks - Ree Drummond.

Love the PW! It is food porn!!:clap:

Cherry trees in bloom, are one of life's greatest visual pleasures. I love Spring in Memphis.

Minnie I've never been to Memphis, but I can't wait to get the tour at the end of April. Those trees are absolutely breath taking....something we don't get to see here. Lucky you!!! Thanks for posting those!!!!:clap:

My grandmother found my father out on the front porch in the middle of the night when he was young. She said he was calling the mules. He also had no recollection of it.

My suitemate in college said that my roommate and I had conversations in our sleep--Tammy would talk in her sleep and I would answer her, or vice versa, and Tecia said that we usually talked about entirely different subjects...

Kind of scary what you can say or do when the screen saver is on.

I can't decide what kind of mood I am in. Maybe after a few more psots in the political thread, it will become clear. I am kinda' feeling like a crusty old man today. :wave:

:bang:...now I will go pay bills.

I talk in my sleep when I am thinking/stressing about something or just having goofy dreams - my campers were quite entertained when during my "sleep talking" I told them "be sure and drink enough water on portages". They were quite impressed that even while asleep I was on duty 24/7! :D

Those new Schick commercials are vulgar!

Advertising a new women's razor w/ a commercial where any er, "shrub" they walk by becomes well groomed! :blink:

This one is a normal texter. "C u at 8" She doesn't try to have a full blown conversation via thumbs and texting. ;-)

We had funn on a Monday night, catching up, cussing and having a yummy meal. I got awake with a sore throat, though. Probably a sinus thang - welcome to Spring in the South!

You are from such a totally different generation than I am! What I dreaded the most about labor and delivery was having the shrub trimmed! Then when daughter was in high school, she educated me on ... well, you know. I was, like, :yikes:. I guess Bill's and Monica's actions made what was not a topic of discussion become a topic of discussion.

I remember when Lucy and Desi slept in twin beds so that it didn't appear that they ... well, you know. I mean, back then, they couldn't even say the word "pregnant" on TV.

Where's my cane? ;-):lol:

Yikes...I saw the commercial, but I wasn't paying attention.


I always thought it was interesting that on the Flintstones, Barney and Betty slept in the same bed, but Bam-Bam was found on the doorstep. Wilma and Fred slept in twin beds, but Wilma got pregnant with Pebbles.

Were they just trying to confuse us?

Funny, I never noticed that about the Flintstones. I noticed Fred running through the house, which must have been a mansion, but had only one painting - he ran by it six times in one run! :floor:

I've never looked at the American Idol 2009 Thread. :cool:

Does the lottery draw tonight?

I think this is my most favorite thread 'cause I can talk and you can respond, but it really doesn't matter if you don't. :biggrin:
