Newcomer Questions - runnerful - 05-22-2007 12:05 --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "Leroy Eckert" I find it difficult to believe you will have any difficulty starting a conversation. lol Why Leroy, are you trying to tell me something? ;-) > Niceville---Yes, it is here next to the Choctawhatchee Bay in the panhandle of NW FL. It is where a lot of nice people live. lol Excepting myself. lol The HOA stays on me, especially if I plant the BB in the street, in particular if the trailer is hooked up to it. Ohhhh, you're the fella I was reading over on Wanderlodge_All. They're _still_ on ya? You're _still_ doin' it? As for snipping, just click and drag to highlight the deletia and press, well, Delete. Gone! Ginger BB wannabee Newcomer Questions - Leroy Eckert - 05-22-2007 12:38 No Ginger, I truly hope you find a BB and join the party. Nope, I'm not on Wanderlodge All, never heard of it, but I am still doin it. Gonna keep doin it, until dirt is thrown in my face! Until then, if I get hungry I'll eat the Ducks that are nibbling at me. I can snip it but the computer will not allow me to type in between the lines of received messages, so I'll top post. That way nothing gets misinterpreted.

I have been on the business end of that thing many times in the early years. Showed it to the wife. Guess what happened.

Hay you guys you have it all wrong with this Washer Dryer thing! Just get one of these as a present for your wife and your washing machines worries will be over! And while your at it you can get a peice of rope and make a washing line on top of the old rig!

Jon > http://www.redhillgeneralstore.com/B32851503.htm While you're at that, might as well use a piece of that rope to make yourself a noose. Will help ease the pain. ;-) Though I did buy my wife a mop for Christmas once. More as a joke than anything else, but she wanted one, so I got her one. My boss dropped by while I was wrapping it up and looked at the mop... looked at me... looked at the wrapping paper... looked at me again... and just shook his head. Ginger: > Two, some campgrounds charge extra if you have/use your own laundry > equipment: some do not allow the use of onboard laundry equipment. Bwaahhahahahahahahahaha!!! I don't respond well to rules of any sort. I don't respond *at all* to ridiculous, stupid rules like that. I'd ignore such a rule and, if some how called on it by the campground, I'd tell them where they could stick their silly rule. If that meant I packed up and left, so be it - but if they kicked me out you can bet they wouldn't see a dime from me, for anything. It's one thing to provide a coin-op laundry to earn a little extra cash. It's quite another to charge people a fee for not using your laundry facilities! What's next, do I have to pay fifty cents for every can of soda in my fridge, since I'm not buying from their machine? Hahahaha... You know, I just realized I totally destroyed this thread with my initial laundry comments. In fact, I think this is the second time I've started this religious debate here. Apologies to all - I am now fully aware of the religious nature of this subject and will try to avoid it in the future. Oh, on the weight, though? I don't think even 200# here, there, and everywhere is going to make a difference on a big coach like mine. Maybe if I replaced the floor with inch thick lead, but otherwise, not so much. -Ryan |
