    Default Awww s-h-i-t!!!!

    Well fellow BOTL's, it was a hell of a day with plenty shananagance happening. Had to have my septic tank replaced.

    This is what dug out the hole.

    Here is the new tank. FYI the old one was steel and it looked like cardboard to me or cheap tin when they dug it out. Of couse they needed to pump out the old one first.

    Because the old one caved in, there were a few clogs along the way.

    Of course they made the hole, put some fill in and leveled it off for the tank to sit.

    Little bit of landscaping to finish it out. Whew! What a day! Glad that this project is done, all except for paying the 3500+ bucks to get it done. Awwww SHIT!

    Kind of and interesting day, and thought I would share it with you. Have a good one. Roger.

    Thats for damn sure LOL. It was interesting the stink was the worst when the pumped it out. But it does not stink any more. Thank God! I am just happy that I did not need to pay for a drain field too, because that runs 9 to 12 thousand. Whew!
    Just another day at the office!

    Heh. I thought this was gonna have some sorta, uh, "messy" disaster (like the front-hoe going head-over-butt into the hole).

    Sure that's a septic tank and not a revolutionary bunker?

    I think the Fuente you were smoking was a Hemingway. It's a confusing thing with Fuente in that they have Gran Reserva on practically every label. But if it was a Fuente and a Figurado with a natural wrapper, it was most likely from the Hemingway line. They're fantastic smokes and it's nice that it was warm enough for you to smoke outside; in Chicago, we're still enjoying single digits, yay!!!!

    BTW, great title to the post.
