MacGyver award winner: Low pressure organization

I replaced my Sandpiper pump with a Flojet today.  The Sandpiper pump still worked fine but foamed a little.

I used the Flojet kit 20381-057 1/4″ OD tube connector for the outgoing chemical.  (UPDATE: I shortly after this changed to all 1/2″ Flojet fittings.  Then changed the outgoing to 3/8″ Flojet fitting.)

MacGyver award winning fix.  The fix was 3/8″ barb to 1/4″ barb.  After bitching about crafting this conversion I noticed all the other Flojets are setup the same.  I think I am going to purchase some poly tube fittings 1/2″ for my Flojet setups.

These are the Flojet mounting brackets 20982100A that I purchased.  They look cool and give any install a more professional look.  I believe that my setup needs all the help it can get.

Viagra 50mg tablets and Hawk cologne, What do they have in common? Ask Sam.

IMG_0168.JPGIMG_0170.JPGIMG_0167.JPG

Started off normal…. some shoes on the phone line and a box of Sam's garbage.  I do not know why people dump garbage.  I wanted to dump the garbage at the guy's house but….

It was just a box of normal trash, a 1990 basketball trophy, sealed blanket, some bath salt and lotion, a ton of men's cologne (one being Hawk cologne).  Oh also Viagra tablets.  Maybe Sam got kicked out of his house and I felt sorry even though I had his address.  Anyway the bottle said "Take one tablet by mouth one hour before activity".  Not sure about the "activity" but it made me start to wonder about the women's shoes, blanket, bath salts, lotions, Hawk Cologne, and the 1990 basketball trophy.  They all have a common theme but I am not sure what the theme is.  Well maybe not the trophy unless there was no female.  Did I just just post that?

While I was dumping the garbage.  This lady pulled up and started dumping garbage.  She had a large garbage bag of crap.  Does anyone know that my dumpster is on private property?  Also, look at the other cool artifacts I found… a Iomega Zip Disk, cool.

Road blocked

IMG_0159.JPG

Today the road was blocked by the fire and police vehicles.  I could not see what the problem was because the road was blocked.  I assume it was a car accident.  Just a note, I did not cause any additional slow traffic.  I had ample time to find my camera, change the setting, make sure the camera worked.  Then I still had ample time to compose the shot and take multiple pictures.  Because when people see accidents PEOPLE CAN NOT DRIVE.  I just wanted to disclose that I was not delaying traffic to take pictures.
