Admit it – you never expected THAT as a topic, eh? 
Well, congratulate me!  After finally realizing that no, I did NOT have to hire a plumber to fix the broken toilet seat lid (decades of 4 kids pretending it’s a captain’s chair finally ripped the seat from its moorings), I bravely armed myself with [...]
