And I wonder what kind of bill he gets for those talents.


Who says she is sending ME a bill !!!


Speaking of Rules of Plumbing (or any DIY project) I have one that my
dad taught me many years ago.

"If you have to go to the hardware store three times on the same
project, go to a different hardware store."

I've done this on a couple of occasions. Three trips in one day is a
sad site.

PatM's corollary would be "If you live in a town with two nearby
hardware stores, you live in too big of a town. I ain't driving 20
miles out of my way to get to the 2nd hardware store. This town has
everything you need -- and you only need 1 good hardware store.
