A bit of trivia

I just learned that the dish machine we have in the kitchen came from a battleship.  Pretty cool, eh?



"The Machine."  It sounds like a battleship engine when it's on too.  ka-THUMP, ka-THUMP, ka-THUMP, ka-THUMP, ka-THUMP...
The school will be replacing it this summer.  They will go from a 60-gallon water guzzler to a 7-gallon environmentally friendly save-water-for-the-whales machine.  Let's hear it for technology!  It will be kind of sad to retire the ol' veteran though.  He's served his country well.
