I had a small coup in my house yesterday. For several weeks now the drain has been running very slow in our bathroom. I finally told my wife not to wash her oil paints there as that was the reason why it was clogging up. (As a side note I didn't tell her in the beginning though I saw the potential problem from the start). Time was a little short so it took me a while to get to it but finally yesterday I got a round tuit and did the job. But not before my wife talked to some of her other painting friends and asked them what they do. Well one of her friends informed her the same problem occurred at her house and she had to call a plumber in. Cost: 200.00 to fix a plugged drain. So I took the thing apart yesterday and found what amounted to congealed gunk resembling a long, black snake. She was impressed. A little less though when I said that'll be 200.00 please. All joking aside she now understands the cost of labor when it makes a house call.
