Did you have the same problem as I did with mine...the "r" and ";" keys would get stuck on permanent press?

I think Samsung is at the bottom when it comes to fixing them... No one does. If you could even get parts.

TIL that it actually is possible for you to get an engine code, and for it only to be a loose gas gap.

Happened in our Suburban, check engine light came on, and the "Tighten Gas Cap" showed in the information area. At the next stop, I discovered the gas cap was loose, I tightened it, and within 5 miles the light went off.

I thought that was a myth! First time in all my driving and all the various engine codes I've had, that was the solution.

Today I learned that truth is based on myths.. Honestly, trust me!

I had a professor that used to say that there isn't such thing as a fact, just a widely accepted theory.

Theories are the relationships between facts. They both exist, but are different concepts.

Except known facts can be proven wrong which means they were just a theory all along.

Is that a fact or a theory?

But I love beef jerky, I'm pretty sure that is a fact. My gout doesn't accept the theory.

So confused.

There's a TSB but the Maytag repairman usually doesn't know about it.

That's only in economics where laws are changed like underwear.
