Truer words were never spoken, Joe. My basement laundry room is more like a factory. Your pithy observations made me LOL.

Ha ha! Always will be, always has been. Makes me wonder if A and E had a closet full of fig leaves, perhaps some for different occasions. :). Thanks for the early morning laugh.

It was fitting for me to be first to comment because I am Joe's Number One Fan. I love his repetition of the word "laundry" to make the point that dirty laundry is everywhere you turn.
