So my daughter in law told my wife this morning that her vacuum cleaner broke down yesterday. I called her and told her to bring it over and I would look at it. The rocker switch was bad so I found a shop that had one. While I was there I picked up a new belt. I went home, replaced the switch and belt. While I had it apart I figured I would do a professional job on it so I pulled everything apart, cleaned the filters, and all the hoses then blew everything off with my air compressor. Put it back together and it ran like a new vacuum.

I went it to clean up and when I looked in the mirror I saw the dust tracks going up my nostrils and the dust around my eyes. Then it dawned on me, they just went through 3 weeks of COVID. Oops.

Time to take the daughter in law and son out of the will, this is obviously their way of get your vast fortune earlier.

Look on the bright side. If you go now, the Oxbucks you’ve earned won’t be taxed at 43%.
Reminds me of a conversation I had with my dentist the other day. I had a tooth go bad and the dentist was trying to talk me into an implant as opposed to a crown. He said crowns are ok but they don't last forever. I told him I am a 70 year old obease smoker, how long do you think I'm gonna live anyway.

Now you've done it. Everybody who has died since March 11, 2020 and for all eternity going forward will be a COVID death unless there was no vacuum cleaner in the house. I'm betting you'll be fine, but you've let the idea out.

Who fixes appliances these days?

Kudos

And I think the dust will get you before COVID does.

Apparently the pooch liked it too. Seems to be trying to eliminate the competition...
