Well no. A vacuum cleaner is cleaner that works by creating (more or less) a vacuum. If you clean a vacuum cleaner, with a rag or something, you are a vacuum cleaner cleaner, not a vacuum cleaner. I suppose that if you got very grubby while doing that, you could wash with a piece of soap, which could be called a vacuum cleaner cleaner cleaner, and if you wiped the grime off the soap with a paper towel, that would be a vacuum cleaner cleaner cleaner cleaner. Then....

Wednesday, June 1

Before criticizing someone, always make sure first to walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you'll be a mile away and you'll have their shoes.

She deletes posts quite a bit. Must be that whole "women have the right to change their minds" thing.
