Hmmm....

Why is it our $38 swimming pool from Target is still in great condition? We have had the pool for 2 months it has been used almost daily, we have consistently exceeded the water level, weight limit, and human capacity. It has been in multiple rain, wind, and thunder storms. That pool has been thrown all over the back yard and up against the fence and brick yet it keeps on trucking.
Why is it that our Air conditioner in our brand new house has not lasted 2 years? I am sure it is worth thousands of dollars, much more than the pool. We take very good care of it, I never let the kids touch it, I don't even touch it. We have not thrown it around or exceeded any limits or special rules set by the manufacturer. Why doesn't the warranty cover all labor? Why, why, why couldn't the air conditioner have cost $38 like our trusty pool?
Just my thought for today.
