Local rule and black rags

While I was washing my clothes at jikka, my parents' house by using their laundry machine and drier at the same time, my grandmother came to tell me that the laundry machine was leaking.

The water was actually flooding from the machine, wetting whole floor and even the water ran into the other room too!!
So, I ran to get some papers to let them suck the water.
 


My grandmother told me
 
"If you use the washing machine and the drier at the same time, it causes the water leak.  So, do not do that."

I was like



I have been to some countries and stayed with families in there, but nobody had ever told me not to use the washing machine and the drier at the same time sine it could cause the flooding.

The flood did not seem to stop, so I turned the machine off and tried to find what was causing the leak.
After while, I found there was a tiny hole on the water faucet. So, I went to the home improvement store in town to buy the tool to remove the little pipe, that has the hole on it, from the whole faucet, and also the replacement of the little pipe.

It did not take me much work to replace it and the new part did work just fine.
Then, I did the test run for the washing machine.
The water did not leak when the water machine was filling the water since I just replaced the parts. *GOOD.*
And the machine was working perfect while it was washing the clothes. *VERY GOOD*
But when the machine drained the water, the water came on to the floor again. *WTF*
So, I ran to get the papers again and got the mop this time to sweep the water away from the floor.

It seemed like the clog in the draining pipe was causing the flood.
So, I went to the store again to buy the liquid pipe cleaner that can melt the clogs.
When I came back to my parents' house, I saw my grandma's younger sister was cleaning the  wet floor.
She was so nice to help me to clean the floor.
She was wiping the floor with the black clothes.  It looked familiar to me.



Those were actually my socks I was wearing the day.
But I did not say "hey! they are my socks!"  because she was helping me and I assumed she did not mean to clean the floor with my socks.. I hope.

Well, after all struggling and help from my grandma's younger sister and also from my aunt, the washing machine came back to work fine again!!  *Yay*
Thank you very very much my grandma's younger sister and my aunt for your help!!

I got banned from facebook AGAIN for a week.

Facebook banned me of posting and sharing on timeline, sending messages, and like button for any post for a week.  Right now, what I can do on facebook is only to login.            I asked what I did wrong to get banned to the help desk, but they have not replied me anything yet.    What I did right before I had got banned was re-activating one of my pages about discussing the differences between the facts and the fake news on fake medias.        Well, these are my new pages:    Please give your "like" on my pages.  You will be receiving tons of update (since those pages are updated by bots) from the pages, but you can hide them too.      

Blogs and AdSense (2)

Blogs and AdSense http://itoshunsuke.blogspot.jp/2015/07/blogs-and-adsense.html     When I see my Adsense page today, I see some numbers!! *Yay* Last time I open this page after years about 10 days ago, I found that I had made only 78 yen, and other numbers on the list were zero yen. But now, I see "+224 yen!!" This is GOOD. I will donate whatever I make from my blogs to the city of Miyako. Then, hopefully the city of Miyako will let people know by saying "The blogger, Ito Shunsuke, from Miyako has donated 10,000 yen!!" on city paper. So, I will get more traffic, and it will make even more money. Then, I probably can donate 100,000 yen next year, and 1,000,000 yen for the following year, so on. When it reach to 10,000,000 yen, I will say       *LOL*

Portals in Miyako (1)

By playing INGRESS, the smartphone game, sometime it takes me to the places of cultural significance, such as public art, landmarks, monuments, etc. where I have never been or seen even in Miyako, my hometown.      I have been taking some pictures of those portals, so I would like to introduce them briefly with map link.  Some of them are not registered as the portals yet, but I had sent the request to INGRESS when I took the pictures. 1. Suidou Kouen (Water Line Park) [Portal Requesting Now] Map:  https://goo.gl/maps/jAZRP This park had opened in June 4th in 1993. You can walk not only behind the water fall, but also in the water with bear foot. So, it's nice place to "chill out" literally. 2. Suijin-hi (Stele of the Water God) [Portal] Map:  https://goo.gl/maps/jAZRP Next to the Suidou Kouen (Water Line Park,) there is Miyako Water Line Management Office.  When this Office opened, they made this stele.   In front of thi...
