funny, same thing happened in the east Med over the last couple days... right now the wind is fairly calm and its in the upper 60s. Lovely evening other than the bandwidth here is lousy.

Got the water line fixed. Dang black plastic split the long way, about a 1" split too. Just like the crude oil pipeline a few towns over... must be a Michigan thing! Replaced 2 valves on another line while I was at it. I don't know what made me look at them, they were 200 feet away and on a different line. GOOD luck for a change I guess. 'Course, I DID put 10 gallons of fuel in my JCB at 10:10AM on 10/10/10.

Actually, a Scuttlebutt is a water fountain. The Navy and Marine Corps use it also as slang for "gossip" due to the common term of "Talk around the water cooler" I.E. Gossip.

Now you ALL know.
