heeheheh had to share this its just to funny to keep to ones self
Jennifer and Luke kept getting huge water bills. They knew beyond a doubt that the bills weren't representative of their actual usage, and no matter how they tried to conserve, the high bills continued. Although they could see nothing wrong, they had everything checked for leaks or problems: first the water meter, then outdoor pipes, indoor pipes, underground pipes, faucets, toilets, washer, ice maker, etc. -- all to no avail. One day Jim was sick and stayed home in bed, but kept hearing water running downstairs. He finally tore himself from his sick bed to investigate, and stumbled onto the cause of such high water bills. Apparently this was happening all day long when they were not at home. Knowing that few would believe him, he taped a segment of the 'problem' for posterity -- see link below.

- has anyone heard Stuart McClean's piece with the same name - from CBC radio's Tales from the Vinyl Cafe. It's hilarious, though my favourite of his is the "Odd Jobs" monologue about "guys with tools" - should be required listener for anyone who ever considers a "simple" home improvement ....
