I've seen this at my daughter's USA Gymnastics gym, but didn't know it was allowed in competition. Cool, but it would keep me OFF the bars, ewww, sticky!
Do not ask how I know, but rotten sour cream, if left undisturbed, results in a perfectly ghastly yet beautiful mesh of multi-colored, mottled tentacles on top. I know, it's almost worth the $3.99 to just go out and get some to prove me right!
It's called a dishWASHER for a reason. AND... today's detergents are so strong that if they don't have food residue to break up, they can etch your dishes that much more. The detergent will be more concentrated in the flushing water rather than in leftover food bits, and will wreak havoc on your pretty place settings over time.
The best bagels are the ones you make yourself(!) or that you have actually seen being boiled. I do give DD kudos for their mass-produced rolls-with-a-holes, but all other store-bought, factory-made "bagels" are bread rolls with holes. Sara Lee and Thomas' are the WORST offenders. I won't even let me gentile children eat one of those, ick!
It's a corn cob rack, at least in my family. My mom would stick dried feed corn cobs on it and hang it up to feed the squirrels. It made them go wild, and what a nature show for us kids!
It is indeed a Zenith remote control ca 1973. I was privileged to be friends with one of its inventors.

(Or maybe one of them is disabled)
(Or maybe the dad is disabled)
