Some people recommend them, some warn about them. How do you wash them? What's the real story? Julie Dear Julie Microfiber cloths are great! I still have some, that I bought from a lady named Julie Bess in Tucson in the 90s. She went off the Internet and started working for GM in the late 90s. If you are still alive, Julie, Hi! To wash them, use warm, not hot water. Use mild soap and not too much. Air dry in sunlight or at low temperature in the dryer. If you use them on your luxury body in the shower, wring them out well, then spread them out on the shower top rail for drying. If you don't wring them out, then they get stiff, but get rejuvenated if you wash them with your laundry. Best not to use dryer sheets. If you forgot, just wash them again and remember not to use dryer sheets. That's all! Have FUN! DearWebby PUN WARNING: At a church meeting the topic was "Burial or Cremation?" Two of the people got rather worked up. One said to the other, "If you have yourself cremated, all you will be doing is making an ash of yourself!" The other replied, "Well, I'm told that petroleum comes from fossilized bones, so if you have yourself buried all you will be doing is making a fuel of yourself!"

She immediately said "yes". The next morning when he awoke, he couldn't remember what her answer was! "Was she happy? I think so, wait, no, she looked at me funny..." After about an hour of trying to remember to no avail, he got on the telephone and gave her a call. Embarrassed, he admitted that he didn't remember her answer to the marriage proposal. "Oh", she said, "I'm so glad you called. I remembered saying 'yes' to someone, but I couldn't remember who it was." ______________________________________________ Friday, we had a tornado drill.
