    3. Kay and Mizz Kat... I also keep all the operating manuals of my appliances and other electronic gear or anything else that mey need repair or replacement.. When I was younger, (about 1950) I took a course on small appliance repair thru the mail..that was B.C. (before computers)...needless to say, ALL that info is far outdated today, and I am a real dummy on this new stuff, as well as tne newer cars, too...you used to be able to take a tin can and a piece of wire and fix those older cars..nowadays you cant even get your hands in the engine area...I trained as a mechanic in the military, but all that is passe now, too... I bought a Jenn-Aire range and it is still so complicated that I can hardly use it and I have had it for 5 years now..it is all push-button controlled with a memory built in....I am now going to go to the screw-in fluorescent light bulbs as they are longer-lasting but 5 times as expensive......PHEW!!!!! .... Sorta' like the old saying,...... I bought a wooden whistle, but it wooden whistle,..I bought a steel whistle but it steel wouldn't whistle..I bought a lead whistle but momma wouldn't lead me whistle, ..I bought a tin whistle and now I tin whistle......Ole Paul keep the mail comin' to Ole Paul
