If you have any back bone at all and the gumption to stand out among a sea of inbred janitors who couldn't keep a job as a Kmart ham slicer, YOU have gone the extra mile to be The Hero.


Did you sit too long on a seam with your RE and melt open the hot glue?

Did you crank up the pressure out of desperation and blow the grout out?

Did the second pass on that 40 year old raw cotton brown it out for good?

Did you blow your back out moving that f'n piano with half a coffee spot under it?



or like me today, use an acid and find that one in 20,000 Porcelain that etches...:icon_redface:

thank Bawb for topicals..

Had to replace some cotton on a fancy chair ONCE.

Blood drips on a white cotton chair, should have stuck with q tips and the 3%. It just wouldn't go away!

Ended up trying stain magic or something like it. Stain browned out(how? no idea..) had to go back as soon as I looked at it... It split/made a weak spot. Cost my 2 bills to get the back of the chair redone..
Just don't know how to say no...:hopeless:



I also once moved a potted plant and the ceramic pot broke. Later she tells me she broke it also, and it was glued back together....

Jerry, I just tell 'em up front that if something lets go, I will try to clean it up but cannot replace it. The way I put it is "please tell me if your furniture has a wonky leg or old break. I want to be respectful of your belongings, but not buy them.
And if that cracked vase has Aunt Martha's ashes in it, I can slurp her up, but you have to spring for a new vase."
