A cellar dweller (Oreck)left the house today

[gottahaveahoove]

a friend and I went to the Poconos today, antiquing, etc...
We stopped in a local vac shop and had a nice chat w/ the owner. More on that later...
My friend told me his Oreck was shot. I told him there was one in the basement. "I'll buy it", he exclaimed. He was thrilled. It's a gray XL.. new belt, etc. Another dweller left the house, and he got a replacement Oreck. It truly was a win/win situation.
Others will hopefully follow.

There are 2 more down there.

1 is a small one for cars, etc, plus a "hokie".. the little push/pull found in restaurants.
Upon uncovering the Oreck, I found a box of Kirby "Tradition" attachments. I believe they're "complete". I'll have to really concentrate on this stuff now since the holidays are over.

Still "down there"

waiting to be placed either in "Supermarket" or Ebay are a "gold, anniversasry" Electrolux shampooer, a Westinghouse upright, 3 Kirby{s}, an Oreck car vac, a brand new, unused Sanitaire toolbox commercial, and a few others. I know of 1 or 2 Dial A Matics.
I must get it all ready.

Dear Lord!

Upon putting some Christmas boxes away, I discovered another Kirby attachment set down there.
They really ARE like "bunnies" down there.
"Stop The Madness".

Wow...if you keep digging, you might find Stephen King, children, are possibly even a clown under the stairs. Whatever you discover, please keep us apprised as the mystery unfolds!

 

[gottahaveahoove]

There are no clowns here, I'm sure! lol

There ARE bodies though. This house was built on an old cemetery. I have found things.... including a human pelvis.

 

[ralph123]

so what's the story with the 3 Kirby's? Did they just pop up out of the cemetery?

 

[gottahaveahoove]

HEHE, no!

But, a pelvis did..... another story, another time.
People insisted that I 'needed' these. Nope. So, they'll be sold

 

[ralph123]

So the people who said you needed the Kirby's - they're not in the cemetery are they? Or possibly in Hoover type C bags? (bad humor I know).

Speaking of old Kirbys, I remember (many years ago) a woman talking about some kind of pants that you hook up to the vacuum to lose weight. She was really excited because she had a Kirby. Not sure how it worked out for her. Probably had clean carpet, but I doubt it did her any good otherwise.

so which model Kirby's do you have?

 

[gottahaveahoove]

I havw 2 blue ones, and

1 red one. The red is "Tradition", I believe. I'll have to re check. There are also 2 complest sets of tools, too.

O will "go over" them thoroughly

before I "send them out' into the world. 'Fly fly, Clarisse".
