and my dryer is fixed. $120 as opposed to that ripoff (but more punctual) place on court st. that charged over $200 for the washer.
And my tax bill is now over $5k.
I know Denton :o(. That’s why I never bothered but I think once the condo tax abatements run out for all the new construction, there will seriously be some opposition if taxes for older co-ops and condos do not go down from those levels.
Speaking of toilets, mission completed. The bad news is that I paid John Hlad’s guy this morning to change the guts of the toilet. The good news:
1) I watched this burley liscenced plumber yahking and muttering trying to get off the offending bolt. Yes, he told me, it was very difficult to get off. He made he feel better about not being able to do it by telling me I certainly could have done it, but he was sure that it was the sight of my own blood which made me give up.
2) He then put in the replacement shaft mechanism which I bought (I knew how to do that) and showed me each piece and how it fit.
3) We then listened toghether to the sound of the flushing toilet after he reconnected the toilet. The tank filled up, than made a strange shishy sound. The flap was “lazy” and so he then had to go to his truck to get a new flap mechanism. Something which would have cost me more time, but he then installed that and showed me how it fit together.
4) He then told me that they just get rust from the bolts in the tank and need to be replaced every couple of years. (2-3 years).
So anyway, that it the end of the toilet tale. If any body needs help with this, I am your willing servant (now that I paid tuition for this lesson).

Countries that have qualified but never scored a WC goal: Canada, China, Dutch East Indies, Greece, Trinidad & Tobago, and Zaire.
Select company, Biff!

M4L, if I could afford a house, I would switch in a second. Maybe once I get married, I’ll just get something in….gasp…Jersey.
Coops/condos are taxed at 45% of market value, where 1- 3 families are taxed at 6%. City council members rent or own 1-3 families.
