Heck, I'm 38 and I still (occasionally) feel butterflies in my stomach. The last one didn't work out, but man... I knew I was in trouble the moment I saw her. And for a couple of months, it was the best kind of trouble ever!
LOLOLOL.... Yeah, I know THAT feeling....

Morning everyone. Looks like a crappy day here already. I am noticing a foul smell coming from near my lift station in the LL. Smells like the sewer vent is frozen shut again. Only problem is I can't get to it to do anything about it, by myself anyway. It's 8 feet up from the eave of the house on a 5-12 pitched steel roof covered in snow. This is the second time in as many weeks it has frozen up. I am SICK of this sub zero weather.

Mike I just went through the same problem here, except the stink pipes werent too high, they were too far from the edge of the building!

So I took a 4 liter empty milk jug, duct taped the hell outta it, onto a 10foot long 2x2. Filled er up with hot water, and voila!
