It is because you live in Australia and the water flows backwards there. Move to a different country.

Wow, I had trouble with that too. I have to wonder, how did you ever get use to the agitator in the stool?

Im not sure I know what you mean. If by agitator you mean flushing mechanism, I just pushed it down. It goes WOOOOOOSH and then everything disappears. Not WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSHHHHHHHH like those fancy washing machines in restaurants and gas stations though. I have no clue as to where my clothes have gone. I look in the dryer every time but they are never there. Do I have to turn on the dryer first?!?!

Thanks for that one Gern!

I love the DARTH vader with doilies, flower prints on the wall sharing space with a grape vine heart, and a curio cabinet stuffed with chotchkies.

Man takes 26 years to solve Rubik’s Cube
Sunday, January 11, 2009


It has taken most of his life – but, after 26 years, builder Graham Parker has finally solved the puzzle of the Rubik's Cube.
When he bought the toy in 1983, Yuri Andropov was leader of the Soviet Union, breakfast TV was a novelty and music CDs were in the shops for the first time.

'I cannot tell you what a relief it was to finally solve it,' the 45-year-old from Portchester, Hampshire, said. 'It has driven me mad over the years – it felt like it had taken over my life.

'I have missed important events to stay in and solve it and I would lie awake at night thinking about it.

'I have had wrist and back problems from spending hours on it but it was all worth it. When I clicked that last bit into place and each face was a solid colour, I wept.'

Wife Jean, 47, said it had felt like there had been three people in their marriage.

'When I met Graham, he was already obsessed with the cube – spending hours on it every day,' she said. 'I have often thought about getting rid of it but I knew he would not rest until he had solved it.'

A spokesman for the governing body for competitions involving the puzzle, the World Cube Association, said it was 'definitely the longest it has taken' to finish the cube.

medium: tempra on plastic

No no no no no.....

In Australia, the water flushes just like ours does. The only difference is that they have tapped hell as their water supply. You are thinking of the fun loving, dingo chasing, boomerrang throwing Austrians. It seems the Austrians are having a laugh at the Australians. I give you Joeseph Fritzel - The Musical
