    Stanley Steemer

    The upside of all of this for you folks is, I'll be on duty at work next week. No beer, and I get all depressed and can't have any beer and such, so I'm trying to get ahead.

    We had our carpet professionally cleaned ahead of the of the BS party. It was disgusting. So they came and did it and it was great, looked like new carpet, all of it. Nice.

    Well, it wore off (the clean). The same stains that we ever had are back again. Amazing. Why did they go away, and now they're back?

    This is brake fluid. When I was replacing Red's brakes I had the brilliant idea I should put the old ones in the box the new ones came in. Okay, that's a good idee. THEN I carried that box through the house to the screened porch to wait to put the box out beside the street for garbage pickup. Brilliant. Just brilliant. Way to go peewee.

    Well, that's back again.

    I'd call Stanley back. They probably won't charge you. At least, our guy takes pride in what he does and I think would see your recurrent stains as a personal challenge. They have all kinds of junk they can throw at stains. We have Stan come twice a year, mostly to clean the studio as ME has kids in there and she doesn't want to chance on contaminating one of the little devils.

        As much as I'd love to, can't blame Ken the Cat. Those stains were here before he was.

        Now, as far as him having a party and pulling all of the toilet paper off of the reel into a pile, that's another thing. We've got a short list of suspects in that case.

              Cats are vindictive creatures, and if you've read "the cat who could walk through walls," you'd know that time just doesn't really matter to them

                To quote Brian, "See Ya Next Week."

                I'm out of time, gotta do bed and a week of work duty.

                Hold the fort and enjoy the peace and quiet, the lack of my brand of NCRC. Have a great week folks!

                  looks like a good spot for a "runner" carpet.
