Oh Niner, I would have but I didn't know a single answer, just not knowledgeable on Beatles trivia. Sorry :seeya:
 
Niner,
I actually did them "in my head" but never got a chance to come back and post. I think a got a few, lol, I don't remember what I thought was correct!
I do appreciate your quiz though :tyou:, sorry for not engaging :(

I was a HUGE beatlemaniac when I was a kid, my first album I asked for on my 8th bday was the Beatles :)


ETA- OK I got 6 of the 8 right, but since I did not post I get no credit! (I got #1 and #3 wrong)

Anyone have someone in the house who has some knowledge of plumbing? :crossfingers:

Water is not coming out of my bathroom tub faucet. :scared:
All the other faucets in the house are running water, even in that bathroom.
Thank goodness there's another bathroom with tub.
So what can be the problem?

Help! :anguish:
 
A young man was sitting in class when the professor asked him if he knew

what the Roe vs. Wade decision was. He sat quietly, pondering this very

profound question. Finally, after giving it a lot of thought, he said, "I think this

A florist went into a barber shop to get his hair cut. When he reached for his

wallet to pay the barber the barber said, "Oh, I'm doing this for community

service. I cannot accept your money." The florist graciously thanked him.

Next morning when the barber arrived at work there was a thank you card

from the florist and a dozen carnations.

Later that day a policeman came into the barber shop. When he reached for

his wallet the barber's reply was the same, "Oh, I'm doing this for community

service. I cannot accept your money."

The policeman graciously thanked him.

Next morning when the barber arrived at work there was a thank you card

Later that day a senator came into the barber shop. He got a haircut and was

service. I cannot accept your money." The senator thanked him and left.

The next morning when the barber arrived at work there were a dozen

Senators on his doorstep.

David received a parrot for his birthday. The parrot was fully grown with a bad

attitude and worse vocabulary. Every other word was an expletive. Those

that weren't expletives were, to say the least, rude.

David tried hard to change the bird's attitude and was constantly saying polite

words, playing soft music, and doing anything he could think of to try and set

a good example. Nothing worked. He yelled at the bird and the bird got worse.

He shook the bird and the bird got angry and more rude.

Finally, in a moment of desperation, David put the parrot in the freezer. For a

few moments he heard the bird squawking and kicking and screaming. Then

suddenly, there was quiet. David was frightened that he might have actually

hurt the bird and quickly opened the freezer door.

The parrot calmly stepped out onto David's extended arm and said: "I'm sorry

that I might have offended you with my language and actions and ask your

forgiveness. I will endeavor to correct my behavior".

David was astounded at the bird's change in attitude and was just about to

ask what had made such a drastic change, when the parrot continued: "May I

ask what the chicken did?"
--------------------------------------------

After living in the remote wilderness of Arkansas all his life, an old codger

decided it was time to visit the big city. In one of the store he picks up a

mirror and looks in it. Not knowing what it was, he remarked, "How about that!

Here's a picture of my daddy." He bought the'picture', but on the way home

he remembered his wife, Lizzy, didn't like his father.

So he hung it in the barn, and every morning before leaving for the fields, he

would go there and look at it. Lizzy began to get suspicious of these many

trips to the barn. One day after her husband left, she searched the barn and

found the mirror. As she looked into the glass, she fumed, "So that's the ugly

b... he's runnin' around with."

There was once a great actor who could no longer remember his lines. After

many years he finds a theater where they are prepared to give him a chance

to shine again.

The director says, "This is the most important part, and it has only one line.

You walk on to the stage at the opening carrying a rose. You hold the rose to

your nose with just one finger and thumb, sniff the rose deeply and then say

the line 'Ah, the sweet aroma of my mistress.'"

The actor is thrilled. All day long before the play, he's practicing his line over

and over again. Finally, the time comes. The curtain goes up, the actor walks

onto the stage, and with great passion delivers the line, "Ah, the sweet aroma of my mistress."

The theatre erupts. The audience is screaming with laughter, but the director

is steaming!

"You bloody fool!" he cries. "You have ruined me!"

The actor is bewildered, "What happened, did I forget my line?"

"No!" screams the director. "You forgot the rose!" :rose:

I know what Victoria's Secret is. The secret is that nobody older than 30 can

An elderly woman had just returned to her home from an evening at a church

service when she was startled by an intruder. As she caught the man in the

act of robbing her home of its valuables, she yelled, "STOP! ACTS 2:38!"

(Repent and be baptized, in the name of the lord, so that your sins may be

forgiven.)

The burglar stopped in his tracks.

The woman calmly called the police and explained what she had done.

As the officer cuffed the man to take him in, he asked the burglar, "Why did

you just stand there? All the old lady did was yell at scripture to you."

"SCRIPTURE?!" replied the burglar, "She said she had an AXE and TWO 38's!"

I have no clue, but if I were you I would not turn that faucet on.
Just in case the pipe is cracked somewhere in the walls or wherever it runs through, you don't want water gushing.
Are you somewhere so cold it could have froze in that section?

So sorry YesOrNo, plumbing issues are such a major pain :tantrum:

Hi Is it on an outside wall? may be the only one froze.
 
Nore- there's a small linen closet between the tub and outside wall.

I do have the faucet turned on, but no water is coming out. Normally, when this happens, the water eventually does run- after a while.
Since we had -14 last night and only 4 degrees today, I did drip all the faucets, but not in the tub. I have dripped the faucets all day- just in case.

Hope I don't have to call a plumber- they are so expensive.

If there was a crack in the pipes and the water gushing out, I think, the water pump would be running a lot and it's not running more than usual.

Oh- I hate this!!!!!!!! :scared:
 
Hi everyone hope all is well. I'm missing princess and have been thinking about her a lot. We just got 13 inches of snow thank god i didn't have to shovel! Do we know when trial is starting?

From what is being reported I guess we have to go to Alaska to get warm. It's suppose to be 15 here tonight in NC, getting up to 40 degrees tomorrow then back down into the mid teens tomorrow night. Burrrrrrrr. My heather had buds on it. Poor heather.

I miss Princess also, Molly. Where she used to post, there is now a void :( :rose:

It's odd isn't it, how the loss of someone is actually physically felt. At least that's how I experience it. How the void that they leave, is ever present, even on something so seemingly insubstantial as an internet forum. Which to me says that it's not really insubstantial, somehow that's comforting to know.

It's very good to see you back Molly, have missed you here :seeya:

I'm not sure but you might try blowing a hair dryer on it just to make sure it's not frozen, and make sure you drip the spigots / faucets inside and outside. I once had a frozen spigot outside and melted the ice with a hairdryer.

I just asked a friend of mine and she says it is likely the tub faucet is frozen but not the sink! And she's a smart person! :floorlaugh:
