I find it curious how both of these husbands disappear as soon as the laundry is in the wash. I can see them out starting to wash their cars. Do they know how to run the washers? Or are they intimidated by a group of women together chatting? Even my new friends husband has found other things to do in the midst of this chatter

talking about, of course, a theft of laundry. The criminals are your washing machine and its shiftless partner, the dryer. Manufacturers of these devious devices paint them white in order to enhance their image of cleanliness and honesty, but behind this friendly exterior there lies a crafty heart. Laundromat models are even equipped with glass doors. Through these doors, we watch, hypnotized, as our belongings are spun away from us. While discussing this laundry larceny, I refer not to the occasional

very first Laundromat in the United States opened for business in Forth Worth, Texas and was run by Noah Brannen” (Answerbag, 2010). Laundry has always been a chore. However thanks to technology we now able to clean clothes at home as effectively as a laundromat. Stephen Butler a professional launderer once said, “The general idea, of course, in any first-class laundry, is to see that no shirt or collar ever comes back.” Technology has enabled truth to inhibit this quote in that the mechanisms of today’s
alone. "Yes," she confirmed after a long, nostalgic pause "looking at you now I can just see myself thirty years ago." Suddenly, a startling picture of reality burst my peaceful reverie. In front of me, bent over the full bathtub of dirty laundry, frantically looking back at the stove, where our next week's meals were in progress, was a woman too young to be so burned out by her countless responsibilities, so utterly worn out by the burdens of the world she seemed to be carrying on her

The word technology brings the meaning the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes (Oxford Dictionaries, 2013).

It can be machinery or appliances that are made to make our lives easier

There are many ways to wash a car, but which way is the way to insure that a car gets properly clean. I’m going to share three steps on how I wash a car.

Sometimes we have clothes or other objects that may not last very long due to incorrect preserving. Overtime our clothing items tend to look different and react different. What we don’t know is that there are many ways to take care of our textiles so that it will last us a long amount of time and not give up on us so soon. Majority of factors that affect the preservation of our clothing are the environment, light, or even certain temperatures that we place them in. When preserving our fabrics and
The Hero Another Sunday morning came, and as I contemplated whether I should do my laundry, or go to the super market, or maybe even down to the mall to buy that fishing rod that was on sale, the phone suddenly rang. "Hey Russ, do you want to go down to the mall? They have a sale at Big Video, all their heroes of action videos are on sale today" said my friend Gilbert. I guess he read my mind, which came as a blessing, since decisions of the mediocre kind tend to be fruitless at this hour
As I open the double glass doors at the Pub I am overwhelmed with all of the noise. This place sounds more like a bar than a laundry mat. There is music playing, beeping from the arcade games, a metal fan going, tumbling noises from the dryers, and wet clothes being thrown around in the washers. I can barely keep my train of thought. The humidity in the room made it very uncomfortable. The smell on the other hand is great it smells so clean and warm. The room was filled with many

homemakers, activists, and citizens of the United States of America, women have had an important role in Conservation. Women, particularly homemakers, had a special interest in conservation and keeping their environment clean. In the days in which laundry was done by hand, smoke in the air made such a task much more difficult than necessary. Keeping clothes and jewelry clean and food adequately protected was nearly impossible for housewives (76). Of course, women were already doing their part to conserve
After examining the sources, I strongly believe that Pocahontas did not save John Smith from the urgent, deadly circumstance that legends speak of. Although history textbooks such as The Americans: A History write that Pocahontas “rescued Smith when he was captured”, it refers to her rescue as a legend. While some legends may be exaggerated versions of partial truths, many are purely just stories. Although Pocahontas may have “saved” John Smith from a less dire circumstance, the odds of her rescuing
Hans Rosling told a heartwarming story of how the washing machine allowed his mother to pursuit education which ultimately, permitted Rosling to become a professor. Likewise, I also believe the washing machine has made the world better for people in poverty especially for women. I, like Rosling, grew up where my grandmother and mom washed clothes by hand. Washing, child care, and house chores were commonly given to women who spent “a large part of their life doing this hard work with so relatively
