Why, oh why do All Bad Things Plumbing seem to happen from May through September? It seems to be a yearly phenomena. Potties never seem to break in February.
Thus far, The Marginally Best Plumber in Birmingham, some guy Harold randomly called, Mr. Spring and a random septic guy have all been out to my homes this summer. And, these are only the ones I know about. For all I know, there have been others and the tenants haven't gotten around to saying, "by the way."
And, while I am on this rant, I just got a bill from The Marginally Best Plumber in Birmingham, who charged me $9.15 for a "korky."
I am not sure what a "korky" happens to be. A small, perky cork? And, if so, I have leftover wine bottles with something akin to "korky" that I could have shipped to them. At the rate the plumbing bills are coming in, I will have lots of these things laying around.

korky? What the hell is that? Maybe the plastic thingie that keep the water from leaving the tank?? But that's looks more like a flat stopper to me. This intrigued me so much that I took the top off my toilet and nosed around a bit. Didn't do much to satisfy me on two levels. First because I didn't see anything even remotely resembling a cork like component and secondly, because it reminded me that I need to clean my toilet. Thanks so much for reminding me.
