Our Stature In Life Has Increased

We had a minor crisis here at El Casa Móvil De Pennington this past week and I'm pleased to report said crisis has been resolved, thanks to Andy the RV Doctor ("I make house calls!" sez he).   Crisis:  our old toilet... which has a foot-pedal flushing mechanism, like all RV toilets... broke.  The flush pedal mechanism, specifically.  I figgered out a way to flush the danged toilet in between the time it broke and we got our new throne installed.  Which really IS a throne.  Witness:
Old

New

Like I said... our stature in life has gone up.  I would say "our standing" but that's still the same.  It's only our sitting that's been elevated.

  3. Moogie: Yeah, new is good. The old one was a bitch to clean, what with 11 years of hard water deposits, wear and tear, yadda, yadda... aside from the fact it was broke.

    ...be careful, water be chilly.

    Deep, too... to recycle the punch line from an ol' joke. {rim-shot} ;-)

  4. I actually told that joke, in a class in AF basic training. It was a class to teach us how to get along with folks with differing skin. The instructor had encouraged us to tell such jokes. I figured that it fit the category, without being really offensive.
