Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Hi,

Who thinks the day will come, and how long will it take, when the "vacuum cleaner" will generally be accepted as just a hole in the wall that we plug a hose into? No more cyclones, water baths or super-duper filtering for alllergy sufferers.  No thought over buying canister or upright and what warranty length is.  No more concerns about cord length or operating noise levels.  I'm not just talking central vacuum system but also of a possible change in our view of practicality.  The day is not that far away when our computers will also be our telephone and TV among other things.  Come to think of it they are now though not widely employed.  Does anyone feel central vacuum systems may one day be provided in apartment buildings and other multiple dwelling as a given as well as in individual private homes?

Thanks,

Venson

Your are correct, sir. All of the other bristles in the Kirby attachment kit are synthetic.

Ah, Carmine, ever the consummate gentleman, you are most welcome. I can see why your wife snagged you and won't let you go!

Is that because you:

a) vacuum up the fur, b) scoop the poo, c) share Scoopy snacks with the pooch, d) pay rent to sleep in the doghouse, e) all of the above

All the above + the dog and I are a pair and she likes the dog better than me.  In my case, it's the reverse of the saying:  Love me, love my dog.

So, your pooch says, "Love me, love my buddy Carmine!" and your wife doesn't want the dog to be unhappy!  Good Boy, Carmine! As long as you are happy, and you get your shots. Woof!
