Warning: Rant Follows: Why can't the anything simple work any longer! The following simplest of things simply are impossible to aquire in the 21st century:
A) Tea Kettle that whistle. Why is this 1920 technology so damn hard. I melt a tea kettle every month now because it fails to whistle, but my granmothers has worked for 50 years until she died, and then it outlived her.
A Telephone: Can anyone remember when ATT gave you a damn phone and you could drop it off a roof and it still worked. I now replace phones every 6 months. I can't even discuss Cell "Phones".
C) A toaster.... NEW. A Damn Toaster. You put sliced bread in it and it pops out the beard as toast...safely. See 1960 Poptart comericals...
D) An AM Radio. Why is it so damn hard to find a radio with a damn telescopic antena and reception. Every radio I have purchased in 20 years has this bullshit wire for an antenea and its crystal can't pick up a nuclear EMP.
E) Can openers - electric or otherwise. This is a conspiracy to get rid of cans.
F) Cork Screws.... I must have a doezen of these in the house that fail to work.
feel free to add liberally to this list.
