Providence House is falling down...my fat lady?

Following up on our previous post.  It appears that perhaps we are thinking too much about food.  For example, consider this:

Homemade ice cream sandwiches

and its relation to this:

Slithy Tove's unfortunate event this morning

Now it isn't just Slithy Tove who is having trouble.  Recently, the Providence House Think Tank purchased an appliance from that all-too-reliable-and-definitely-honest free market known as Craig's List.  In the past, purchases from this consumer forum have been great deals.  However, our good luck had run out, something this unfortunate washer attempted several times.  There are few home appliances more miserable than a run-away Maytag.

Unfortunately, it didn't qualify in weight for the Derby this year.

For the optimist in all of us, it was a great bargain; a washer and dryer set, lightly used, for only $320.  Moreover, we weren't aware that this washer came with a new cycle that was unique to this model only: the Bull  Ride Spin Cycle.  Slithy Tove holds the current record for staying on the longest.  Mome Rath and Jub Jub were not amused.  Mome Rath, in a "rit of fealous jage", cursed it and smashed its control knob.  Lesson to be learned: do not trifle with Mome Rath when dirty diapers are on the line. (ba-dum.......cymbal noise)
This washer has now been sent to the That Big Range Up in the Sky.  So long Hoss!
