The house we rent has a lousy dishwasher. I soak and pre-wash before loading because I want clean dishes, tho it is handy for them to get sanitized, rinsed and dried off in there. Also our farm water is pretty lousy, so it's not a good surfectant for dried-on stuff, and with only two in the household it's unusual to dirty up a whole load in one day.

Who cares if some women go a little overboard? If it results in a clean house, who cares how one gets there? I gotta tell you-- if I were the P-Vine, I'd be really hurt if I knew I was being portrayed this way in a public forum (or two) among people I'd not even met. Bobert, dear friend-- these threads are.... well, I think you might not want to do any more of them! Next time you have a womanz problem at home-- just get as close as allowed and tell her you love her to pieces, and believe me, any confusion will clear up pretty fast!
