Default Oh Revenge is soooooo Sweet!

Hi everyone. This is Lance's wife Joan. I don't know if this is the right place to post this: if so i apologize. As some of you know my husband has on two occasions talked me into helping him clean out some pipes on his fish tanks and somehow I managed to end up rather messy both times. Then he has the nerve to tell everybody about it on his "fish forum." Well, today I got him back good and quite by accident.
We have a garden hose on the sundeck which I use to water the plants etc. The hose has one of those gun thingys on it and we just leave the pressure on very low so when you squeeze the trigger it is the perfect flow for watering plants. This morning I was rinsing off a stubborn stain and turned the pressure up all the way. After I was done I forgot to turn the pressure back down.
This afternoon Lance takes the container, (I don't know what it's called but it is full of brown skimmer stuff that drains from the skimmer the skimmer through a long hose.

Oops, I wasn't finished yet and hit Submit.

So he takes the lid off and aims the hose into the container. Of course when he pulls the trigger on the hose he blasts the skimmer stuff all over himself. It smelled so foul I almost felt sorry for him. Almost. LOL

Ho how I have laughed at his posts now I can't stop laughing at this one. I think his mess smells allot worse than the one you had, some times the smell from skim mate does not come out for a while...
So now do you have to take him a vacation of his choice????

LMAO! MY wife and I just busted 2 guts thank-you!

Now I think I had better go back and check my post history to see if my wife is doing this with my account. I fear she may have said a perverted thing or two over the years. Shoot.

Oh fer Chrissakes woman, get off my computer!

It wasn't that bad people. I only had to throw out my t-shirt and shower twice. Now I'm good as new except my Beagle won't come anywhere near me. Which now that I think of it is not a bad thing.
