Post #230,436 by Meerkat 10/21/05 8:55:48 PM Reply	Every (work) day. I guess this means I'm different and strange, but so be it :) Ironing doesn't bother me, I just do one business shirt each morning for work. I don't know how people can work through baskets of ironing for hours though - that'd do my head in. Two out of three people wonder where the other one is.

Post #230,475 by drewk 10/22/05 11:47:19 AM Reply	But it doesn't do creases I usually iron my pants, but mostly wear polo shirts that don't need ironing. Like Bill, ironing one piece of cloting a day doesn't bother me. Actually, I do most of the ironing in our house. If we're going out somewhere nice my wife will ask me to iron her outfit. I figure if she's washing stuff every day, I can iron once in a while. === Purveyor of Doc Hope's [link\|http://DocHope.com\|fresh-baked dog biscuits and pet treats].

Post #230,592 by static 10/23/05 10:28:59 PM Reply	I don't mind ironing a basketful. I used to do that about once a week before I got married. Used the time to catch up on videos I recorded, mostly Dr. Who. Nowadays, neither of us just has the time. Besides, it doesn't do my wife's back any good, which is why she avoids it. So we're paying someone to iron, for the moment. Wade. "Insert crowbar. Apply force."
