Fragile world of appliances update

All Rightie then, at midnight last night or this morning depending on how you view the clock I had another appliance pass over to the great appliance god in the heavens. 

Ode to a Garbage Disposal by Angela Gonzalez
April 14, 2010
In your final days you did not complain
From what the children and the husband gave you to grind
From me you accepted the dregs of dinner and spilled coffee beans
But alas you could not take any more when last night you stopped
Your engine seizing and grinding thus halted
I tried to revive you and clean your throat 
Even with the plastic bits and the paper removed 
You would not purr your wonderful motor for me
You served us well dear disposal and I apologize for our lack of consideration and care
Enjoy your rest
