Stone cold sober, if you can believe that. Been layin off the sauce since New Years. Body needs a break - been at it for almost 3 decades non-stop. :sick:

Yeah definitely looking forward to getting that stoker in. Seems like a much less stressful operation. 8 seasons of manual operation are enough for me!

That thing was blasting off for 3 minutes before I noticed. With the TV on, I heard nothing. The smell is what caught my attention ... then I switched the monitor to the basement view .. and HOLY *censored*!! I didn't know if that was smoke or steam, so I was jumping over cats & chairs .. and I think I touched only 3 stairs on the way down. :lol:


The humidity in the house went up 10% in less than a half hour! :o :lol:

Smitty ..... Glad to see everything panned out O K for you. I bet the heart skipped a few beats when you realized the problem. Again, happy to see everything is fine.

You see that right there is the problem !!!!! Had you been drinking, you would have needed a refil and then would have remembered.....................


Boy if only that cat could talk. I bet there was a lot of words flying as you were running towards the steps. A lot of HOLY *censored*'s, with an adjective or 2 !!

Did you kick yourself in the ass ????


Glad you caught it. Who knows what a couple more replies would have cost you .
