The Vacuum Cleaner
The vacuum cleaner has to be one of
the greatest inventions for housewives ever. You can live without a
dishwasher, and many do, you can get by without a clothes dryer
(although I put the washing machine right up there with the vacuum
cleaner), but if you don't have a vacuum cleaner, and you have carpet,
you are in trouble.
In the old days, before the vacuum cleaner was invented, a home's rugs
and carpet were taken outside, hung over a line, and beaten until they
cried uncle.
While this method was most likely very good exercise, I can see how it
would easily cut into one's shopping or snoozing time. Therefore:
All Praise the Vacuum Cleaner!
Bissell's Motto is "We Mean Clean!" - I could not survive without
my Bissell carpet cleaner (I have the Bissell ProHeat 2X Select Upright
Deep Cleaner)...For dog and kid owners, it's a must have!

Because beating your carpet is just plain wrong!

The Vacuum Cleaner was invented by James Spangler, a cousin of a certain Mr. Hoover.

Not really! Dirt Devil just means that their vacuum cleaners will
clean like the Dickens!
