...the biggest thing wrong with the coffee maker was that it went poof, let out a electric fart, a puff of smoke and then it quit making coffee. That's the way I want to go. I blame all it's problems on mz ribit who insisted on washing the glass thingy that the coffee was made in. Everybody with any military experience at all knows that washing the pot ruins the coffee unless you are one of the Tofu Caramel Popcorn flavored coffee drinkers. Anybody who puts that conglomeration of crap in a coffee pot should be, should be, well I dunno but somethin awful should happen to the and it should happen frequently..

I will try and get to part 3 this afternoon or tomorrow. I am attending a birthday party for a guy who is 85. I just want to see what I am gonna look like in 5 years. Last time I saw him (84th Birthday) he looked like he had been dead a week and left on some hot asphalt somewhere. It is entirely possible that I am not a 10 anymore.

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.
