Roger is a hard worker, and he spends most of his nights bowling or playing volleyball. One weekend, his wife decides that he needs to relax a little and take a break from sports, so she takes him to a strip club.
The doorman at the club spots them and says "Hey Roger! How are you tonight?"
His wife, surprised, asks her husband if he has been here before. "No, no. He's just one of the guys I bowl with."
They are seated, and the waitress approaches, sees Roger and says "Nice to see you, Roger. A gin and tonic as usual?"
His wife's eyes widen. "You must come here a lot!"
"No, no" says Roger "I just know her from volleyball."
Then a stripper walks up to the table. She throws her arms around Roger and says "Roger! A table dance as usual?"
His wife, fuming, collects her things and storms out of the bar.
Roger follows her and spots her getting into a cab, so he jumps into the passenger seat. His wife looks at him, seething with fury and lets Roger have it with both barrels.
At this, the cabby leans over and says "Sure looks like you picked up a bitch tonight, Roger!"

Cindy once remarked to her dentist that she didn't know what would be worse - having a baby, or having a tooth pulled.
The Dentist replied, "Well make up your mind, Cindy - because I need to know which way to position the chair."

All things being relative, DC is rarely on par.

On par using what criteria?

Voltage, amperage . . . .


I thought we were talking about safety?


Yes.


You seemed to imply DC was safer earlier.

What is the difference between a chicken and a baby?
A chicken is the result of a sitting hen while the baby is the result of a standing cock.

Make sure your plumbing matches the holes before you put it in.
Most modern bathtubs have the faucets *above* the tub itself, as opposed
to fitting *on* the tub.
If its the old fashioned kind you should have room to get your hand under
the tub. Ive never seen an old "clawfoot" tub that mounted flush with the
wall.

An avid duck hunter was in the market for a new bird dog. His search ended when he found a dog that could actually walk on water to retrieve a duck. Shocked by his find, he was sure none of his friends would ever believe him.
He decided to try to break the news to a friend of his, a pessimist by nature, and invited him to hunt with him and his new dog.
As they waited by the shore, a flock of ducks flew by. They fired, and a duck fell. The dog responded and jumped into the water. The dog, however, did not sink but instead walked across the water to retrieve the bird, never getting more than his paws wet.
The friend saw everything but did not say a single word.
On the drive home the hunter asked his friend, "Did you notice anything unusual about my new dog?"
"I sure did," responded his friend. "He can't swim."

The trouble was I was replacing a broken plastic bath with an old cast iron one. A few problems:

1) A Ford Sierra dislike the wieght of a cast iron bath.
2) Druring transit the damn thing shifted off the lip at the back of the car boot (it was a hatchback), making it ****ing impossible to get out.
3) It was too big to steer round the hallway.
4) The house it came from had a wooden shelf behind the bath (presumably so you could get to the tap workings underneath) - mine doesn't.
5) The plumbing was all different diameters of pipe, and every combination of connectors I tried would not position the drain pipe to match with the drain of the house - I ended up using a flexible drain hose.

Are you trying to install a sink in a vanity or trying to fit new

faucets
on a bathtub?

I was putting a new bath in to replace an old one.

Make sure your plumbing matches the holes before you put it in.
Most modern bathtubs have the faucets *above* the tub itself, as

opposed
to fitting *on* the tub.
If its the old fashioned kind you should have room to get your hand

under
the tub. Ive never seen an old "clawfoot" tub that mounted flush with

the
wall.


The trouble was I was replacing a broken plastic bath with an old cast

iron one. A few problems:

1) A Ford Sierra dislike the wieght of a cast iron bath.
2) Druring transit the damn thing shifted off the lip at the back of the

car boot (it was a hatchback), making it ****ing impossible to get out.
3) It was too big to steer round the hallway.
4) The house it came from had a wooden shelf behind the bath (presumably

so you could get to the tap workings underneath) - mine doesn't.
5) The plumbing was all different diameters of pipe, and every

combination of connectors I tried would not position the drain pipe to
match with the drain of the house - I ended up using a flexible drain
hose.

You used a compact car to haul a bathtub?!!?
Oy!
You're supposed to measure all the openings and fit the plumbing *before*
you install the bathtub...eveything over here is copper pipe and solder
joints.

All things being relative, DC is rarely on par.

On par using what criteria?

Voltage, amperage . . . .

I thought we were talking about safety?


Yes.


You seemed to imply DC was safer earlier.


Things being equal, yes.

If DC were used in the applications currently occupied by AC, the
deletirious effects would be more frequent, and obvious.

Agreed. But you said DC was SAFER.

I used the only car I had at the time. Didn't realise the bath was quite so heavy! guy lived in a place without a proper road, I had to drive down a kerb at one point, suspension went THUD!
