Plumbing job wrapping up. Replaced a pipe, cut a hole in my downstairs bathroom wall, only charging me $200. I'd say I got away with a generous amount of lube.
Except now you also have to repair the wall...unless you want to hang a big picture there...

My wife has 100 miles on her car now.  So she said she needs to get it out onto the highway and blow the carbon out of it..

Dumbass statement of the day:  "Volkswagen lied to me when I bought my Jetta diesel"

No mention of Fixing The Hole in your wall ???
Yeah, well, I'll have to take care of that. The only negative. But that job for $200, I'll take the responsibility for fixing the hole.

If I could stand on the other side of the wall, you may have been onto something there.

I made up a new pick up line.  As I was leaving the grocery store, I met a nice lady going out of the door at the same time as I.  I stopped my cart and said, "Ladies first."  She smiled and went ahead of me.  As I follow her out the door I said, "You know, I used to be a cub scout." She said some thing to the effect of, "Yes, I can see that.."  I asked her, "Were you a girl scout...?"  She said, "No..."  I responded with, "That's strange, as sweet as you are, I would have thought you were a brownie...!" 

Actually, I always allow women to go ahead of me.  My normal line is, "I used to be a cub scout."  On one occasion a woman responded, "I used to be a girl scout."  Then stumbled onto, "I can tell, anyone as sweet at you, must have been a brownie..."

So far I've used this 3 times, with very good results.  Even thou I'm not looking to pick some one up, it's fun to flirt a little.  Twice the women smiled and blushed.  The third had a box of wine in her cart and asked me if I liked wine. Yikes..!  I wasn't ready for that one.

Yes, and I hope it's not to late... ugh..!  Actually she's been very sweet to me ever since getting the new car.  I've been trying to come up wish some sort of devilish plan for the weekend.  I think she's off Sun., Mon., and Tues..?  Rend Lake is not too far from here, and they have some lofts next to the lake.  So, I have the place.  But haven't filled in the devilish plans..?  But I'm thinking.

Hell, it cost me $175 just to get a plumber to run his snake down my pipe...  And he also asked me to go outside to see if his snake came out the roof of my house... oh my..!

what, you don't have the harbour freight tools. http://www.harborfreight.com/50-ft-compact-electric-drain-cleaner-68285.html at home?  Well I leave mine a few blocks away at the legion, they tend to have more problems... why the plumber was more concerned with the vent as opposed to the drain seems a bit strange, but it is a bad dad story after all. 8)
