Default Fast, Fun Unclogging

I unclogged a toilet just now by dumping a coffee pot of hot water into the bowl.

Took about 10 seconds for the heated water to work it's magic on
the clog. Then the flush completed in a very satisfying manner.

That was 'way faster and more fun than getting out Mr. Auger.

Your experience reminded me of my first time working away from home.
When I was a kid I loved Salami. Since it wasn't in the budget at home
I could never get enough of it. With my first paycheck on my own I
bought a ten pound roll of Salami and about three pounds of cheese,Rye
bread,onions and a jar of Miracle Whip. I was set for a week. I had
Salami, cheese and onion sandwiches topped with a generous amount of
Miracle Whip for breakfast lunch and supper for about six days. On the
following Sunday morning as I rolled out of bed to get ready to go to
Church the sudden urge hit me. Oh man did that hurt! Not wanting to
get too graphic but I have heard women talk about the pain of
childbirth. Childbirth could not be much worse than what I went
through that morning. When I finally finished I couldn't flush the
toilet. I didn't have a plunger so I had to call the Landlord who
happened to be a plumber. He wanted to take it to a taxidermist at
first. He said he had never seen one that big. I finally talked him
out of it but hindsight being what it is maybe I should have kept it.
That might have been my only chance for the Guiness Book of World
Records.


I was laughing *with you* just now.

--Winston -- It sure as hell wasn't funny at the time, though.
