The Fun Just Never Ends

Some few years ago, the plumbing contractor hired by the "contractor," left some little "gifts," as in extra useless parts, trash, an old towel, an old dirty rubber plumbing ring, some empty plumber's cement and plumber's primer cans.  Some screws and nuts?  Lovely.  I cleaned it out... but check out that 1970s contact paper.

What's Hot?



What is hot??  Notice how the shower handle says "HOT" on the left and "COLD" on the right.  Oh, if only the plumbing contractor knew the difference.  It turns out that the pipes are reversed.  So, you better be forewarned before taking a shower!
