on 10/8/2008 I love tearing apart appliances and fixing them. I'm going to mourn severely when my beloved hairdryer bites the big one. It could be throwing flames and I'd still try to dry my hair with it because they just don't make them that powerful anymore!! :) Good tips for cheapskates like me who like to make things last! 5*
