Not only were clotheslines used for drying clothes, when I was a kid, but also for beating rugs!
Every Saturday, my first chore of the day was to roll up all the throw rugs in the house, take them outside, drape them over the clothesline, and then beat the dust and dirt out of them with a rug beater.
Dad told me it was a great exercise to strengthen my baseball batting.
My wife wanted to get into an argument with the USPS. One of their mail trucks knocked her mailbox off the post, so she just left it sitting on a concrete retaining wall and made them deliver there. After a month, they sent her a notice to put up another post or lose mail delivery.
She wanted to fight it in court. I went out and bought a post. Never get into a legal battle with people who have lawyers unto the third generation.
yep typical liberal impose their will on everyone else, the Amish hang all their laundry out on lines because they do not believe in using modern appliances

I would consider leopard skin underwear far more visually pleasing than tidy whities.

Do clothes dryers use up more energy than the human strength it takes to hang laundry?

Leopard-skin underwear certainly works for Juliette (aka Panther Woman) in “9 Chickweed Lane.”
