Speed Bump by Dave Coverly for December 04, 2024

I wonder why

We have a daughter and a granddaughter who have hair that’s so thick that it’s hard to run your fingers through it and pretty curly too. They have each… on different occasions… spent time living with us, and both of them managed to clog the shower. Fortunately, I have a “four claw grabbit” that works to, among other things, pull great greasy/soapy gobbets of hair out of the plumbing. The amusing thing is that neither one could STAND to see me pulling THEIR hair out looking like that.

The only one in my house who doesn’t clog the drain is me. I’m bald.

That’s one bad case of frizz.

I wonder what the filter on the air conditioner looks like.

When have a “drain strain” – a plastic device that goes over the drain in the shower. We use it when we bathe our golden retriever. We can get about a pound of fur off it that we throw out in the yard. Clean dog hair seems to be a favorite nesting material for the birds.

Get a pack of bristle pipe cleaners. Shove one down the drain and twist it a turn or two. When you pull it back out, it will have a nasty glop of hair, soap, and skin oil attached. Throw the whole conglomeration away. Enjoy a free running drain.

With all that hair, I’m not surprised.

It’s a hairy situation again. Be well my friends.

I’d bet on the shower, rather than the sink…

Does Drano really hurt your pipes?

Job security, stop complaining.

Who’s going to hole ‘2 and fro’ now?This American standard question has been unliked by the Kohler club, Bob at Crane meadows, Church commodes. ToTo and adversaries of Stewart the Cink.

Whenever it clogs, he has a backup plan.

Shower drain more likely.

There was an old man with a beard

Who said “It is just as I feared

Two owls and a hen

Four larks and a wren

Have all built their nests in my beard!”

Duh ! ;-)

Perhaps one of the hair catchers for the drain can help…

whoa, bro! that’s quite the ’fro!!

Lucky guess.

[my own version of the limerick]

There was an old god with a beard

Who said “It is just as I feared

A hawk and a pigeon

And org’nized religion

Have all built their nests in my beard!”
