Pondscum's Less Pleasant Cousin
R. Alex Whitlock
I've been cleaning my bathroom for the past two hours or so.

Well no, not my bathroom, really, but my shower.

Well no, not my whole shower, but about a third of it.

How can cleaning a third of a shower take two hours?

Cause scrubbing won't do it. Nor will scrubbing plus Tilex.

Many of you are computer people, so you might appreciate this. You know those placeholders that come in a case that you take out to replace with PCI cards? Yeah... that's what it's taking to get this crud off my walls. One scrape at a time. For those of you that are not so computer-inclined, imagine a metal piece about half the size of a small comb. Now take 3/4 of that or so and you have what I'm talking about.

This is six and a half times worse than the Thrifthaven bathroom was before I cleaned it. And this time it wasn't my fault -- it came along with the rat terrier pecker when I first moved in. One of these days I'm going to have to take a picture of the water jugs I use to take a shower...

Comment spam is an ongoing problems that we're trying to address. Previously we required people to create accounts and log in. I am thankful to say that is no longer the case. We're giving Captcha another try and are playing around with a text-based Q&A variant of Captcha. So bear with us as we try to figure out how to best get a handle ont he problem. Please note that any comment on a post more than 30 days old will go into the moderation queue, where I will get to it when I can which could be once a week.
