I can *almost* hear you! <br /><br />I had an engineer explain to me once how it was theoretically possible for a sock to be 'thrown' from the washer during the spin cycle. Don't ask me to repeat it...it was years ago and it has something to do with the spinning and spontaneous particle something or other.Vicki Rochohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07381089434014961076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1880052565931746299.post-59408359773154822352010-09-07T17:46:40.265-07:002010-09-07T17:46:40.265-07:00Hey - thanks for stopping by my blog!

There's always another drawer you haven't emptied, or that stuff in the back of the closet, or those things in the basement -- and you start to tell yourself: The new owners might want that. Yeah, that stuff I can't be bothered to put in a box and move. I'm sure they're going to need that. Better leave it.Dianne K.

For years, I moved every year or two, but now I've been in the same place for nearly 7 1/2 years. I'll have to move sometimes soon. Not looking forward to the packing and unpacking. When I move to the new place and unpack, if those socks don't move with us, I'm dumping the single sock contents in the garbage!Theresa Milsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03477761307315565259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1880052565931746299.post-73283133078895119952010-09-07T08:20:59.234-07:002010-09-07T08:20:59.234-07:00I hate moving!
