The Misfortunes of Ior, take two

It never ceases to amaze me how good humored this poor bastard is.

About the same time I created my first post on poor Ior (see below), a half washed load of darks slowed from a vigorous agitation to a screeching halt, full of water of course.

It seems that the machine that had served them well for years, gave up. Ior examined the damage, and reached the conclusion that it needs to be replaced. Off to the store he goes.

It should be noted that Ior has a small child, which added to the immediate need for a working washing machine. The child (Elly-Mae) is growing like a weed and needs to wear her clothes as often as possible because she will be tearing out of them soon.

Ior returns with a new machine, problem solved.

Or, not.

As they are bringing the new machine in, Ior's new cell phone somehow falls under the new unit, and when they set it down, crunch. New Cell phone is broken.

Now the old saying goes bad things come in threes so good ol Ior, so as not to dissapoint...

On the way to work the next day, Ior is driving along in his 2000 Kia, when; clunk, the driver side suspension coil breaks, yes it just, broke! A quick assesment shows that it will need to be replaced, not only that but it seems that you can't just replace one, no, you have to replace the driver and passenger side coils.

Of course when you talk to Ior about it, he simply rolls his eyes and says; "Oh well!".

Prediction: One of these days Ior is going to snap. He is going to tie his old washing machine to the bumper of his Kia and drive it into their basement window, and as he walks away, he'll use his cell phone to call the Fire Department before he sets it all ablaze. But with his luck the waterlines in the house will burst and put out his match.
