~~> REFRIGERATOR PROBLEM ? <~

We got a good soaking rain this morning
and I slept in
UNTIL
the phone rang ~

It was Curtis calling about a refrigerator problem ~
Curtis said when he was having his morning coffee He
noticed a note that his wife put on the refrigerator
and
It Read As Follows ;

~ CURTIS
~ ~ It's Not Working ~
~ ~ ~ I Can't Take It Any More ~
~ ~ ~ ~ I'm Leaving ~
~ Leave All essages For Me With My Mother ~

I was informed that he did the following;

> # 1 ~ Checked With The Power Company ~
> # 2 ~ Checked The Fuse/Breaker Box ~
> # 3 ~ Checked The Power Cord ~
> # 4 ~ Checked The Thermostat ~
> # 5 ~ Checked The Coil ~
> # 6 ~ Checked The Condenser ~
> # 7 ~ Checked The Motor ~
> # 8 ~ Checked The Freezer ~
> @ 9 ~ Checked The Ice Maker ~
> # 10 ~ Checked The Crisper ~

The Freezer Was Frigid,
The Ice Maker Was Throwing Out Ice Cubes,
The Refrigerator Was Cold
and every thing seemed to be A O K ~

*** WOMEN *** Who Can Understand Them ~

Does Anyone Have Any Suggestions Regarding His

Damn.. I had that same problem 15 years ago and the fridge was brand new!

Actually I'm very happy I didn't change the light bulb, but man that bulb cost me a pile of money!

Sounds like it might actually be a "frigid" problem.

I was thinking it was either not getting enough spark or the furnace was not blowing hot enough. But I guess women think a little differently than men when it comes to trouble shooting....

Notice that the now gone wife never said ANYTHING about the fridge. The problem we have is sometimes "we" think we know what SHE is talking about but sometimes we have NO clue.
Unfortuneatley if you go by "when in doubt, ask" doesn't always work as "we" are supposed to know. How we are supposed to know I have NO idea. But SHE is still here so I must be doing omething sort of OK.
