Quote from Tim in Reach Out and Teach Someone
Tim: While we're waiting for Al, maybe Judith can help me work on this running toilet. Now, I know it probably sounds complicated, but it's not. Take the lid off. You follow the rod 'till you get this little puffy ball right on the end here... Judith: Puffy ball? Tim: Right, on the end... Judith: [laughs] You mean the float arm that's attached to the ball cock? Tim: I was trying to make it simple. Judith: You saying I'm simple? Tim: No. No. I'm trying to use a language we would all understand. Then you want to take your flat-tip screwdriver, make your adjustment. Judith: [laughs] You don't need all that. Tim: The proper way to do it... Judith: You don't need all that. Tim: You gotta... Judith: If the toilet is running. You just grab the rod... and bend it. Tim: Ouch! Looks like that's not the first rod you've bent. Judith: Whoo-hoo, you've got that right. [laughs] Hey, we can't wait around for our husbands to get off the couch and do something useful, can we? [women cheer] Hey, you doggone right! I know it can't happen. [laughs]
