. . . Worth a thousand words

The new, temporary water line across my backyard. Cool, huh?

That's $1,075.86 worth of materials and labor you're looking at. I know, I told you 63 cents the other day, but it was really 86 cents.

Frank told me last night that I should have them replace the gas line while they're replacing the water line, as the pipes carrying the gas to the house are the same age as the pipes carrying water. So I called the plumber this morning and said, "Please. Charge me more. Whatever you want to charge me is surely not enough."
