When hubby and I bought a printshop in 1978 - - the man we bought from was "known to be frugal" - - and we found a Portland, OR phone book with 2 and 3 digit numbers - - and - - bills of lading (invoice blanks to be filled in) with "193___" that were still in his writing desk!

Yes, and listening in on the steamy calls of the neighbor girls, and holding the line for a busy number by dialing all but the last digit so you could come back anytime later, dial the last digit and connect.But it was really maddening to try to use your own phone when someone had done the same to you!!
I have an iron I could take a shower with. Is there any way to fix a leaky iron? My Rowenta is only 6 months old and won't hold water. Is there a fix? "Nobody" dropped it or knocked it fron the ironing board. Ouch!

I've used it to stretch knit sweatshirts to fit my rump! They're usually fine up top but scimpy around the "behind". I have someone hold one side against the ironing board while I stretch the opposite side then steam iron in place. Then I reverse the process for the opposite side. After a few boo boo's you learn just how much to stretch it.....start small...you can always make it larger.
