Fix your dishwasher for under $20

As I write this, we’ve just finished the Sochi Winter Olympics (2014).  The lead up to the event was one of concern about possible Chechnyan terrorists.  As the journalists and athletes arrived, the focus shifted to unfinished hotel rooms, water which should not be ingested or even used externally, and dangerous course conditions.  The magnitude of those problems even prompted late night host Jimmy Kimmel to put out a hoax about athletes sighting a wolf in their housing.  By the time the flame was extinguished, those concerns faded, the athletes were celebrated and everyone went home happy, with of course the mandatory possibility of corruption in the ice skating judging.
