And boy, do I know toilets.  First I have a tenant whose toilet not only stopped working, but appeared to be so completely plugged up that even my "guy" who can do everything couldn't get it unplugged.   No big deal, just time for a new toilet.  I'll consider it an improvement.

I swung by the building this afternoon to pick up the now defunct toilet, and haul it away.  So...all the water that poured onto my shirt, shoes, and pants was clean, right?  I'm wincing as I'm writing this, trying to imagine the engineering of a toilet, and hoping that my "guy" dumped clean water in it attempting to dislodge the object.  That must've been it.  Right?  Argh.

Second, sometimes you've just got to use the toilet when showing property.  I was out to a country property yesterday, updating pictures, and reached that point.  Don't get all worked up, it was number one.  The only problem is that the power was off, and, it being a country property, power is needed to for the pump to draw water from the well.  I certainly couldn't leave an unflushed toilet.  What to do, what to do?

I'm a problem solver.  I went back to the office, found an empty 5 gallon water jug, filled it up in the utility sink in the apartment building nex door (it's good to know people!), drove back out to the country, filled the tank, and flushed.  I even filled it again, in case city folk were viewing the property.  I gave it a spare flush.
