My Fricken Coffe Pot Broke! (part 1)
...it was one of them electric under the counter jobs. It lasted 17 years according to mz ribit. I wanted to get a replacement that just sat on the counter and the installation would consist of plugging it in. That much I could probably handle. Mz ribit has to have a under the counter thingy.
...the first thing I had to do was uninstsall the old coffee maker. Nothing to it I thought. Six hours later I got it all out. The first problem was that it was held in by four bolt nut combo thingies. The first three came out easily but somehow the last bolt (no matter which bolt it is on the schem is a monster to remove. That is why I alwas save the easiest bolt to get to for last cause I know there will be a problem and I didn't want it to be the hardest to get to and a problem. Seems this bold got wet every time ya made coffee and over 17 years it looked like the anchor on the titanic. After the afore mentioned 6 hours I had a tantrum and just broke it all to pieces. AFter that I still had a bold and nut thru the wooden part of the cabinet and couldn't get them lose. Went to get my bolt cutters. Guess what! They was hiding from me. I called my sons and they didn't have them but the younger one had two so he brought me one. I cut the bolt off and it's Tantrum 1 Coffee Maker 0.
Liberals are like a "Slinky". Totally useless, but somehow ya can't help but smile when you see one tumble down a flight of stairs! |
