Barely a week after the steam cleaner died, WS killed the snowblower cleaning up after the last storm (15"). He thought is was just a belt, but naturally it wasn't. Some bearings seem to be shot, and how he is supposed to get to them to replace them has him stumped. Guess the snowblower needs to go to the shop to get fixed, along with every third person's in the area. It doesn't look as if we will have it for the storm moving in at the end of the week.
Naturally, this happens right after the snowblower turns 2 (actually I think the warrentee is only for a year).
Thanks to the neighbor for opening up the downhill part of the driveway, otherwise I'd still be shovelling.
Now, I can see you launching the vacuum. But I WANNA see you launch the blower. That should be impressive.
Hope you get help when the storm moves in. Luck to you.

Wichi Dude - The blower is WS's, so I don't have permission to launch it. Not only that, but it is super expensive, so it will most likely cost a lot less to have someone fix it than to buy a new one.
Bod - Murphy lives at this house, so we have renamed it Bogie's curse, because stuff like this happens all the time at this house.

These are the times when you think they should change
"Murphy's Law" to "Bogie's Law"!

Bogie--Perhaps I should have Expert Seamstress send their Hoover Constellation vacuum to you. She hasn't been able to get it to die in 49 years!!
