My main sewer line backed up and I called to have it snaked,thinking it may cost 300.00 but it turns out the pipe is the old clay and when dug up expells sewage and crumbles. I need to replace the entire line to the main street tie in and it looks like it will prevent me from yet another year at the Chip convention. I just cant see diggin outta this hole (no pun intended) this time. Life throws us challenges like this and i will still do my best to make the show but it looks dreary for tonite. Guess i will sleep on it and attack it fresh tomorrow. The work will take 2 days to complete. Thanks for listening, at least I have my health. That I am thankful for. Have a happy new year, John R-6920
