HAAAA!!! How about you take out all the clothes and try to stuff a smaller kid in there to balance out the weight of the soaked blanket?
I'll be looking for Nancy Grace to announce the results of the experiment. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by spapad from Monday, January 17, 2011 7:32:28 PM)

It's insane. OK, so it's off balance, I put in on pause open it, and adjust the clothes, instead of attempting to spin again, it starts to fill up again! First time, I've been truly disapointed with this machine. Washing machines are not rocket science! Why do they screw up the one invention that was pretty much straight forward.

See? You don't have the necklace with you and shit happens!
I bet they spent the $ used for an "off balance" alarm on the oh-so-useful child lock.

Wonder if it's voodoo would work on my new washer?? I just spent and hour and a half attempting to get the damn thing to spin out the load in it. I finally figured out that you can't put any kind of blanket in that absorbs lots of water along with other items. It's autobalance system won't spin it out, you don't get one of those off balance alarms, that would be too convienent. NO, it just quits spining and starts to fill up again to start the whole rinse cycle over again. Dumb! I finally had to remove the offending blanket and spin out the two loads separately, which also means I had to use the only existing spin cycle that I can dial in which is some sort of drain/spin cycle which takes about 15 minutes to complete. So, when I'm finally done, I'll have spent two hours on this and learned something I would rather have not. I knew I should have gotten the Wilma Flintstone edition washing machine.

Ha!! I can see that. Looks like you couldn't resist taking "old faithful" along.

Just for you, Spa! This shot is looking back down Waikiki Beach to Diamond Head Crater. That highest point is where I jumped the rail to take the shot I previously posted.
HRMG - Double the pendant, double the luck! I flew in when a snow/ice storm hit home and came back when the rain / ice was hitting the island!
Bud - I'll post a couple of more but it is hard if you know me. I am both a big shutterbug and into doing major hikes / running. Every other corner is majestic and the whole island is basically volcanic rock. Goes from tropical jungle to the north to urban sprawl around Honolulu / Pearl Harbor / Waikiki to the rock / cactus (no joke...look below) to the south. Ran the route where they filmed Jurassic Park, King Kong, etc., then HAD to stop by the calm bay where they filmed the intro to Fantasy Island. Da plane! Da plane! I'll take a look and put up a few more ASAP, Bud.
