Washing Money Can Be Costly

I actually had the conversation below today…I haven’t laughed that hard in a while.

Me:  Do you remember how much trouble we had when we replaced your garbage disposal?

Other Person:  Yeah, I never want to do that again.

Me:  What was wrong with it anyway?

Other Person:  Oh, I was washing my money and a penny got down there, and when I turned it on, the penny burned up the motor.

Me:  You were doing what?!

Other Person:  I was washing my money.

Me: Why?

Other Person:  It was dirty.

    Your older brother's disposal stopped working one day after he tried to dispose of some corn cobs. He went to Home Depot and bought another one ($60 plus $40 for wrenches, pliers, etc) and brought it home. His father in law happened to be there and pushed the reset button - it worked just fine. He actually tried to sell the new one to me but I know how to use the reset button and so refused. He ended up giving it to me for Christmas. $29 for shipping.

    Or is he?
