Clog

January 8, 2006

What a super fun Sunday I had today! It all started while I was brushing my teeth and the water from the sink went down the sink drain it came out of the bathtub drain. After about 20 minutes of plunging I realized this was no ordinary clog, so I went out in search of some “liquid-plumber.” There are about thirty different kinds of this stuff so I went with the one that had the most toxic and environmental hazard stickers on it. Two hours and a whole bottle of toxic-liquid-plumber later the clog actually got worse! Now, instead of the water going from the sink drain to the tub drain, it just goes nowhere! FRUSTRATED, I went to my room to take a break. After four episodes of MacGyver I came up with the solution. I grabbed the ShopVac, moved the hose from “vacuum” to “exhaust”, jammed the hose into the sink drain and turned it on. Exactly 2.3 seconds later, the tub drain erupted a black sludge

Of course, by the time I took the picture most of the sludge had already gone back down the drain. The moral of this story is: Watching MacGyver will help you unclog your drain.
