Put the toliet seat down
Watched "Untold Stories of the E.R" episode that related to a toilet.
Lady was stuck for 18 hours in a toilet, She went to relieve herself at 2 AM, EMS *finally* talks her and the toilet to the emergency room. After all the commotion from EMS and the ER doctor not knowing of how to get her out (swelling of buttocks, etc.) They called the hospital plumbing crew with all kinds of tools. One smack with a chisel & hammer, her being held up - they cracked the toilet open by hammer and chisel with one strike. Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pu1muWhKEBA Ya'll put the seat down, ya hear? Dagnabbit! |

This and your beer plumbing post remind me of the time a coworker had bought a new house and the builder had accidentally reversed the hot and cold water pipes to his bathroom. Said every time he went to the bathroom, he got a hot flush. |

The firemen did say they had an axe at the on scene incident. They could have removed her that way, same as in the ER. Different tool. |

I thought of the solution before I was halfway through the story and I am sure most of the readers did also. Harry K |

But tv is not the real world. Any trained EMS or Fire Dept. person would know that it's easy to break a toilet. Easier than removing it. Anyhow, as far as women nagging abou putting the toilet seat down, I have an answer for them. "I'll put the toliet seat down when I finish my job, as long as you put it up after you use it. Otherwise I might **** on the seat, since my bladder is getting old". That shuts them up fast! |

In fact, Toto has even trademarked a name for these modern toilet control panels: “washlets.” http://www.tofugu.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/washlet.jpg Last year I helped a friend finish a garage floor.

OK, it was still a one-holer I saw, but terminally luxurious. For butt-wiping, they had a rack with embroidered linen towels!!!!! I'd hate to be the laundry workers for that particular gig. Unless they threw them away after each use? Shucks! Gotta go back and check on that--as soon as things quiet down over there HB |
