Top Ten Reasons

...for Laundering Out


10. Bellying up
to the neighboring bar
to exchange
a $20 bill
for two rolls
of quarters


9. Coming into
a rush of hot air
from the arctic
outdoor
temperature.

8. Filling

all seven

washing

machines

with

laundry


7. Listening

to the

washers

work

while I

waited


6. Reaching

for a

recycled

magazine

on the

rack



5. Reading
in peace
and
finding
its
profound
message



4. Filling all four dryers
and promptly gaining
a refund when one
failed to function properly

3. Having the manager
genuinely thank me
for my business -
$40 worth in one week

2. Spending less than
six hours (over one week)
doing work that usually
takes more than twenty



And the
Number One reason
for Laundering Out is...


1. KaBang.
KaBong.
KaBoomBoomBoomBoom.

With that noise,
our home
washing machine
died two weeks ago.
