[Dull Knife]

My old ShopVac gave up the ghost this morning, so I went and got a new one......spent a good hour and a half putting it all together, plugged it in and hit the power switch. The motor ran, but there wasn't very much suction. So back to the drawing board, but still could not get lots of suction.
Called up stairs to the wife, can you come down and and have a look see. So she looked the indirections over and said: "well it looks like you have it all together the way the paper said". Oh goodie....now what?
She left and a little while later came back and said: "why is there an open hole in the bottom of the tank"?
Duh, so that's why I had an extra piece, it was the cap over the drain hole.
Gee.....it works really good now.....chalk up another one for the wife.

That sounds like a bad error. I don't mean leaving the cap off. I mean admitting that your wife fixed it. You are supposed to keep things like that quiet. Don't you know the rules?

I'd swear I saw nearly the same thing on a TV show on SPIKE TV called "Where's Your Sign?" or something like that! That wasn't you was it? Ha! Ha! Don't feel too bad Dull Knife. We've all been down that road once or twice outselves!

To err is human, to blame it on someone else, even more so. Sure wish I could remember who the brilliant person is that said this. He/she was sooo right.
