I'm sorry Pastah,

Bow your head and let's say the prayer of Jabez together. Close your eyes now. Lord, enlarge the Pastah's territory. Bless him Lord, Bless Him Indeed. Line upon line, precept upon precept. Verily I say unto thee Amen and Amen.

P.S. Lord, please heal the Pastahs refrigerator.

Feel better now?

One more thing Pastah, days like this were MADE for Guinness Extra Stout. Mums the word.

No joke -- I honestly have never, ever had one moments desire to drink anything alcoholic. It holds zero appeal to me. Don't like the smell, and doubt if I'd care for the taste.

That's not out of legalism, or because I am some kind of prude or prig, I just don't see the point and never have. I am sure that is influenced by watching my uncle die a horrific death with the DTs, the tea-totaler example set by my parents, my denomination's historic prohibitionist stance, and a dozen other things.

I am a sweet tea and back coffee kind of guy.

Sweet tea in Hawai'i? Do they think you're a foreigner sometimes with that? :lol: Or, have you converted any of the folks there to good ol' southeastern sweet tea?!? :lol:

I just polished off some chicken 'n dumplins with sweet tea for supper.

All these local people now LOVE sweet tea. :wink:

PG,
Did you have anyone look at the fridge? I had a brand new one do something very similar.. except it went the other direction.. Froze everything in both sides.

In my side by side fridge.. the unit has a small internal door between the freezer and fridge areas that open and shut based on a temp gauge. If this small temp door fails it can stay open or never close etc.

If you have someone local or in your church that can check on this. The part isn't expensive... but causes much trouble.

God Bless

What MacUser said is true.
Likely it is a thermostat control that has burned out or is stuck or sticking.

The part isn't very expensive...in the meantime you can turn the thermostat control for the refridgerator portion colder so that maybe it will be sufficient for next week or until you can get a part for it.

Better than having to purchase a whole new fridge!

I got your "tongue in cheek" immediately.....likely because I don't have enough spiritual insight to think any other way......
