Re: the whole "tanging the dishwasher/TSP" discussion, is C.L.R. a thing down there? - Reagen Nov 30, 13:22 7
- I think you can't use CLR on glassware. So you tang glassware and could use CLR on an empty machine. Maybe? -- nm - Amanda Nov 30, 13:32 3
  - right, empty cycle is what I'm saying. -- nm - Reagen Nov 30, 13:54
  - But I think where we are is that tanging doesn't last long enough. We're trying vinegar and are thinking it'll have to happen once a week. -- nm - Amanda Nov 30, 13:36 1
    - you'd be better off putting a filter or softener on the water if you're going to be doing it that often. -- nm - zork Nov 30, 13:38

    - Haha. :-) -- nm - Krusty Nov 30, 13:35
  - Um, yes there are. - kelly Nov 30, 13:26
- Too many to pick one. And of course you chose one I've never heard of. :-) -- nm - Krusty Nov 30, 13:19 8
  - You're surprised? - zork Nov 30, 13:21 6
    - Not surprised. I would have been shocked is he went with something normal like White Christmas. - Krusty Nov 30, 13:28 5
      - nitpick: White Christmas (and a bunch of other songs mentioned in this thread) is a popular song, not a carol. :) -- nm - znufrii Nov 30, 13:35 3
        
        but people traditionally get together and sing them so...carol! -- nm - Diva Nov 30, 13:44 1

    - Lou Rawls and Dianne Reeves, end of poll. -- nm - TFox Nov 30, 13:26
  - ik,r? it's a tough question. -- nm - Diva Nov 30, 13:16 18
    - [deleted] 17
      - Dislike the most - any version of Little Drummer Boy and that damn McCartney song. - Andie Nov 30, 13:24 15
        
        Jingle Bells and Santa Claus Is Coming To Town both need to go away forever -- nm - zork Nov 30, 13:50
        
        The megachurch by our house does a very cool Christmas percussion show based on this. It really saves the song. -- nm - spamlet Nov 30, 13:43
        
        I don't particular care for LDB, but I did sing a really good choral arrangement of it a few years ago. -- nm - znufrii Nov 30, 13:33

        yep. sucks bad. -- nm - Diva Nov 30, 13:27
        
        LDB needs to be deleted from music. -- nm - Reagen Nov 30, 13:27 8
        
        You are correct, sir. -- nm - kelly Nov 30, 13:35
        
        you know that poll we had that if we had so much money we could make things disappear? this is on my list. -- nm - Andie Nov 30, 13:30 3
        
        I'd settle for getting rid of the David Bowie/BngCrosby recording. -- nm - mara Nov 30, 13:46 2
        
        if they had only done *any other song.* -- nm - Andie Nov 30, 13:56 1
        
        I love you, but I am going to have to kick your ass soon. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 30, 13:59
        
        crazy talk. Bob Seger's LDB is glourious. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 30, 13:28 2
        
        sounds like his vocal cords are bleeding but I give him an 'E' for effort. -- nm - Diva Nov 30, 13:30 1

- yes... deducts from your checking account and you get 5% off everything. -- nm - stewie Nov 30, 13:15 3
  - Does the 5% come off at time of purchase, or do you get a check every so often? - kelly Nov 30, 13:21 2
