Has anyone gone out to look at jupiter?

why?

It's as close as it gets to the Earth and is supposed to be really bright. The news guy said (and I'm really not making this up) with binoculars you can see Uranus

Yes, and Yes. A truly starry, starry night. Although, technically speaking a planet-y, planet-y night.

I am pleased to report that my oncolgist declared me to be 100% in remission - he was so plwased with what he saw (and didn;t see) that he cancelled my 6 month PET scan and said I don't need to come back for 6 months!

BRAVA, DR VIXMOM!

Typos happen, unfortunately. Several people proofed it, too. Oh, well, they seem minor to me.

Not me--I would have caught tohse.

(That's a joke, ladies and germs).

Vixmom, I am so very, very happy for you.

New toilet is installed and seems to be functioning as one would expect a toilet to.

JMK · « **Reply #279 on:** September 21, 2010, 08:43:45 PM »

We do need to paint behind the tank, as the new toilet has a slimmer "profile" than the old one.

Some Professor Emeritus and winner of the Kemper Award (whatever that is) has contacted me about an article on Frances Farmer she's writing. She wants my help. Could an honorary Doctorate be in the offing?

Especially since your services installing a tile backsplash are required here.

I have learned many semi-exciting things about toilets over the past two days. I find this rather amusing, as I have installed several toilets in my day and also repaired many of them. But I never knew until yesterday that Kohler manufactures its own fill valve (also known as a ball cock assembly, especially to Elmore and MBarnum), and that, incredibly, no one in Portland carries replacements. I even tried rebuilding the malfunctioning one yesterday to no avail. Isn't it odd that Kohler would not have replacement parts available?

I also learned that there are evidently "Phases" of toilet manufacturing grades. The common "flapper" and "float arm" assembly is Phase 5. Newer toilets have a fill valve that actually lifts up to let the water into the bowl and those newer toilets are called Phase 6. I can only wonder what Phases 1-4 might have been.
