I think that happens in places other than Canada too.* ;~)


Yeah, but when it happens in Canada somebody will always say, "So, you
didn't drain them lines, you hoser, eh?"

I forgot to put a hose away one year and left it attached to the
silcock. One morning getting ready for work I heard water running
and, yep, the hose AND silcock burst. Yeah, I pretty much thought the
same thing about myself. I'm just lucky I was at home when it went.
