So for the past couple of days I have been trying to install a dishwasher in our new house. If you've never done this or don't know what's involved (as I was), there are 3 main connections that dishwashers have: electrical, water and drain. I knew the ele...

The following is a guest blog by Keil Isham. He is covering my butt while I slack off this week working on other projects. I'm not sure if he's going to follow this one up with a part 2, but the possibilities are endless....

I know, I've been totally avoiding the blog lately. I've been working on a bunch of stuff and for the past week have fallen asleep in the middle of projects late at night. I've been suffering from a general lack of sleep, yet I have no desire to go to bed...
