Since I get so many visits from people searching for Whirlpool Water Heaters I thought it would be appropriate to add some useful info for those looking to fix problems with their water heaters.
- if you need to call for warranty service call the toll-free number on the water heater
- on a previous post, commenter Tom said “If you have a problem with this water heater call 1.877.817.6750“
- if you are considering buying/installing a Whirlpool water heater I’d suggest asking the opinion of a couple of plumbers in your area. For example, would you recommend whirlpool? would you buy one for your home? do you fix a lot of whirlpool water heaters?

GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra garnered a PG-13 rating for strong action sequences of violence and mayhem throughout. The second movie this year to be ripped out of the hands of its younger audience by Paramount with a PG-13 rating. Understandably, the approach is to the widest audience which includes those who grew up on GI Joe, but the youngins are gonna have to sit this one out.
The Joes and Cobra are treated to a super-upgrade of technology since the last cartoons I saw as a kid. If you can, I would recommend checking out the movie, even if you aren’t a GI Joe Fan since you will also be able to follow the story line and enjoy the hi-tech super-battles that permeate the movie.
Check out the Official GI Joe: Rise of Cobra site.

Were you googling Smithsonian Institution National Archives? I was after watching Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian (Rated PG for mild action and brief language), starring Ben Stiller, Robin Williams, Owen Wilson, Hank Azaria and other wonderful big names. The movie’s rating of PG 13 makes it appropriate for most of the family, and will likely result in more visitors than usual at the Smithsonian Institution this summer.
This funny movie is worth watching and features some amazing stars and American History. Oh, I never found any cool maps of the Smithsonian Institution National Archives, so if you did, please drop a comment below.
TERMINATOR SALVATION – A MUST SEE FOR TERMINATOR FANS
It seems I’m in a minority group with those who thought Terminator Salvation was a great BLAST of a movie. There was very little I didn’t like about the movie, and I can’t think of anything I didn’t like about it.
The ever-important John Connor has grown up, Skynet has come to life and executed Judgment day and mankind struggles to survive. Terminator Salvation is set in the future of the first 3 Terminator movies and after we’ve lost the battle to destroy Skynet before it comes to life. As evidenced in the trailer below, everything in the future is not as had previously been known… it seems Skynet has used its travels to the past to gather intelligence.
