water main break (Scranton: living, place, street)

[loveinbloom]

Well, I am sad to announce that I have joined the ranks of Scrantonians who have had to endure a water main break at/near their home. I am trying to look at the upside and am thankful it has nothing to do with a flood.

This is yet another first for me...whoopee!

Ya know, it's like living back in Queens! There was always a water main break somewhere in Queens. There are such old pipes under the ground that need to be replaced.

lovein..... Now you get to think of the song, "If I Had a Hammer". You hear it in your head.... over and over. You hum it. You whistle it. You become stronger and louder as you reach the "I'd hammer out danger...I'd hammer out a warning...." part. Ah. Yes. That "warning" part. If the jackhammers start again tonight, you suddenly realize you have a claw hammer in your hand and are on your way out to the street to give the hammer guys a warning!!!! Muhahahahahahahahaha!!!!

That's when the song changes to "Hammer Time"....hit it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
