bathtub basics
Aside from "don't drown," what is the basic principle of bathtub use?
Don't allow the tub to overflow.
I think that my upstairs neighbor needs to have that prominently tattooed on his body and emblazoned upon his walls.
Just think -- this man can vote!

Thanks for the sympathy. It could be worse, I suppose -- only one light fixture taken out, and it looks like three walls will need painting once they dry out. It's just that this is the third time in three and a half years that the man upstairs has somehow forgotten that his tub was filling up with water.
I'm just glad I happened to be home this afternoon.

I thought of another basic principle of bathtub use: Clean it once in a while.
Amazing how a nice Pinot Noir can get those brain synapses popping.
Hope all's well...

Oh-Oh! Should I ship you out the auto-vac? If you ever wish to co-sponsor a TPM Cafe chapter of 'the upstairs neighbor' recovery group, I'm in. I suggest we rotate facilitators, to allow those in immediate plumbing crises -- or post traumatic big foot disorder -- sufficient time to decompress.
:D

I hear you on the big foot thing! I'll also add loud and unnecessary repetitions of "I Found My Thrill on Blueberry Hill" to my list of grievances. Does five times in one afternoon count as egregious?
