That reminds me, I saw "The Beach Bum" yesterday.
It's flamin' hilarious!
Pretty good story :)

I gotta try. Most fixes go fine, but plumbing is the bane of my existence. I think many of my house problems emanate because it sits on a massive deposit of uranium. The radon level is through the roof. I think I can give Chernobyl a run for the money. The maximum “acceptable” level of radon is 4.0 pCi/L... my two tests came in at 80.0 pCi/L. Although with me glowing in the dark it eliminates the need for nightlights.

Is it difficult to make an atomic bomb? :)
Now don't be THAT terrible!
lol, even Ivan Grozny wouldn't approve. ;)

....what did I do?......mainly tried not to let my head explode.....y'all know Tracy and I were moving into my homestead....well, that fun fest finished up Saturday and Monday, we found out that all the plumbing in the basement is rotten.....FML.......yep, when Dad and his contractor friend built this place in '64, they laid all copper pipe.....INCLUDING the in ground pipe which naturally was covered over with cement and piled high on top with all our earthly possessions.....the piping has literally disintegrated and now our floor is a jack hammered mess and our things are covered in a lovely death shroud shade of gray concrete dust.....so now their is a gaping hole, not only across our entire basement, but in our reno budget....I really and truly try not to bitch on here, but holy hell I had to vent somewhere....I feel awful, and even worse because it has really hurt Tracy's dream of re-doing things here.....not bad enough that she's still not allowed to bend, lift or twist because of the surgery, but the main floor of the house looks like a landfill evacuated it's bowels in each room, but to top it off, the basement looks like the San Andreas fault......shoo puppy I'm pissed!!.....but my thanks folks for reading this muck and letting me try to chill out.....

I'm so sorry. I totally believe that the universe knows when we have 2 nickels to rub together so it can destroy something that costs us 3 nickels to fix.

Continued healing vibes for Tracy. Calming vibes send for you Scott. A possible positive in this big set back-- it was found out now, not after a major house flood.

Really sorry to hear that my friend, I guess all you can do is grit your teeth and plow ahead to get through it. Positive vibes being sent from this side of the pond.

Right along with everyone else:I got you in prayers/offerings of all kinds for the best results to happen ever so quickly.
Hold tight, Gentle.
And don't you ever stop venting and b****'in to us.
That's just one of the reasons why we're here for you, and you for us.
We all love you big guy, and want to know what's going on, even when we don't always know what to say to help at the time.
You and Miss Tracy are DEFINITELY tough as all get out.
You WILL weather all these storms and come out on top again. I just know it. :)

Spot on Lady.
There is always a silver lining, sigh.....it's just not always as bright as we would like it to be when we think it should be.
But it can brighten up brilliantly at any time! :)

Healing vibes for Tracy and sending lots of good karma for your 'head' - can you get a small loan from the bank perhaps - sorry to hear all this but with time you should be able to get the place up and running again ((((Scott and Tracy))))

I'm so sorry you got hit with this setback. Here's hoping it will be the last one for a long, long time. You've more than met your quota of the bad news, time for the good to start.
