dalem Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Does anyone know how much water there is in a home water heater? Just enough to cover my entire 900 square foot basement to an average of 1/2". So I call my buddy, ask him to come right over after work, help me with the damage assessment and cleanup, bring a mop. mop-mop-mop-squeeze-empty bucket... This goes on for a couple of hours. Phone rings. It's my buddy. "Hey I just remembered, didn't we buy you a wet/dry vac last year?" Dammit. So although I can now no longer float Lars' boat, I am wondering if any of the Minnesota Miscreants know a plumber who works Northeast who will install a gas water heater I buy myself, without demanding both of my kidneys in exchange.

"Hey I just remembered, didn't we buy you a wet/dry vac last year?"Stupidity is it's own reward. And entertainment for the rest of us. We smirk at you. Originally posted by dalem: ...know a plumber who works Northeast who will install a gas water heater I buy myself...I'd do it for a six-pack of decent (i.e. Guinness) beer. You'd have to help with the grunt work, natch. Of course, you'd also have to pay for round trip airfare, so maybe it isn't such a bargain afterall. [serious]It really isn't that hard to do. If you get a propane torch, you can do it all by yourself. The most difficult part is hauling the heater itself.[/serious] Be sure to have someone send us pics of the blown up rubble after you try!

rleete Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Normally, I wouldn't post something from an email, but the following examples were just too good to not pass along. Besides, they give me something to post about. And since my posting is annoying to most of you, it gives me pleasure. Ah, the simple pleasures in life. Originally emailed by Seanachai: [openquote] YOU CAN'T THREATEN ME, UP STATE NEW YORKER BOY! Man, does that suck as an insult. Bah! I wave my hand at you. Christ, you're annoying sometimes. [endquote] So, as you can all plainly see, my campaign to be named "Official Mortal Enemy to the Olde Ones of the Peng Challenge Thread" is coming along nicely. Heck, if not the OMEOOPC (rearranged it spells c-me-poop), at least "Major Thorn in the Side of the Bard". And that's a good thing. Although we may need to form a committee (replete with stenographers) to sort it all out.

Otherwise, you'll all end up in the Kingdom of Leete. I'll be the revered old father figure, of course. Many of your heads will adorn the gateposts along the grand avenue. The Bard will be kept around as comic relief, when the movie is made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalem Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 So $300 for a new water heater at Home Depot. $100 for a friend of a friend to install it Saturday morning. Tomorrow I check the warranty and get an insurance guy over to see what's what. I think at the very least I have to pull up every linoleum tile down there. I don't even want to think about the drywall. Sometimes I hate being a grownup. But I always hate most of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
