    You may be correct. The guy who repaired the washer said it's the control system that usually runs into issues.

    I forgot to mention that my dryer also died as well. It was as old as my first washer. The estimate repair were $500, so that wasn't an option. Ended up spending $800 for a new one.

    I lost too many cats that way in the past. My two are strictly indoors. Very sorry to hear about your cat.

    I hate it when people try to make the game of baseball an intellectual adventure. None of that is coming from the actual performers - I wonder what Sam Travis was thinking if he heard Farrell say that his swing was "impacting " the baseball. Something like - he hits the shit out of it might work better for him.

    Farrell speaking like a guy who knows nothing about hitting.

    Jung Ho Kang got a suspended sentence for his third DUI. Guess they're waiting until he kills someone to give him any meaningful punishment.

    Yup, depends on the judge and how good of a lawyer you have. The legal/penal system here is hot garbage.

    I realize this. However, with my years of knowing A700, I assumed he was just talking about the legal system in general and how DUI's sometimes are underpunished.

    Yup, DUI laws are all pretty much the same, no matter where you are.

    I agree with you, and I think the legal system is even worse in other countries.

    Depending on your definition of worse, I wouldn't want to get caught for drug dealing in the Philippines nowadays.
