Thread Name: BS: Ice Storm!
Subject: RE: BS: Ice Storm!
Wind last night caught the storm (outside) door of the side door to the garage and literally broke it in its casing. We couldn't shut either door until my wife went out with a crowbar and levered it enough to get them shut and locked. We're looking at a whole new door frame and door.

And when I went to the basement workshop to get the crowbar...there was water running down the wall from the toilet above. The plumbers came this morning and replaced the wax seal between the toilet and the waste pipe. Now I have to clean up that mess, and it wasn't all water that came down the wall.

Sins, from what I've heard to have to be an elf or a dwarf to drive the totaled pickup. Or maybe just really, really short. Anyway, he's one lucky kid -- he's already had a pickup drop on him while he was under it and all it did was pin him into the mud. I hope that the third time for him ISN'T a charm!
