I have the attention span of a gnat, but that was worth watching! It just kept getting better!
I always laugh when people tell me "I used to play with fireworks"(or guns) cuz my old friends and I have done some STUFF, but man, old guys always have the best stories! And that guy was a story-teller-extraordinaire!!

Seen that one before but I still die laughing every time I watch it. Having to deal with that same stuff everyday I understand the Mrs.'s attitude. Kind of like the day the lowest of three glass sight globes broke with 3000 gallons of fresh separate in the truck. My employee hollered for me and the only thing I could do was pull my rain coat hood over my hat and jump in the back of the truck and play like the little Dutch boy with my hand in the dike. Only thing was there was 16,000 pounds worth of stuff trying to get out of the 4" hole I had my hand shoved into. Quite the day to remember to say the least.i

I've had some rough days at the office, but never have I done hand-to-hand combat with 16,000 pounds of poo!

It was coming out so hard and fast it blew the 75# pump hoses off the rack at the back. Luckily the aluminum bracket that held the sight window screw gave me something to cram the backside of my fist against while I had Mitchell find me a piece if 2x4 to use in place of my hand. Still lost about 900 gallons on the yard but within 90 minutes had it cleaned up, limed and signed off by the sanitarian. Not one of my better days but a very educational one for sure.

Is that what is known as a "dirty" story?

Ironically,when I was about 5 a neighbor did that exact thing to the cistern at their house...EXCEPT it hadn't been used yet and he had the powder monkey from the excavating company he worked for do the "blasting". I believe he used a couple "quarter sticks" to bust the walls. And to the best of my knowledge it actually worked.

What it does is fracture the tock and let the effluent or liquid part of the septage have direct access to the ground water rather than slowly filtering out and letting the foil microbes clean it up. Wouldn't want your well to be downstream from that one.
