\nWell, the toilet went crazy
\nYesterday afternoon
\nThe plumber he says
\nNever flush a tampoon!
\nThis great information
\nCost me half a week\u2019s pay
\nAnd the toilet blew up
\nLater on the next day-ay-eee-ay
\nBlew up the next day
\nWoo-ooo <\/p>\n

Lyrics from “Flakes” by Frank Zappa<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The first human voice I heard this morning came floating down the hallway with the words:<\/p>\n

“Dad! The toilet’s overflowing!!!!”<\/p>\n

First, I freaked and ran around looking for towels.<\/p>\n

Second, I cursed. Or maybe that was first.<\/p>\n

Third, I had a good laugh over it all when Zappa’s lyrics came to mind.<\/p>\n

The moral… “Don’t cry over spilt *milk*.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
