rockpile Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 My basement was flooding - water slowly coming up through the toilet. A neighbor said he "corked" his with a tennis ball. I tried but the ball went all the way up into the toilet! How do I get it out? !@#$ing rain..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockpile Posted September 9, 2004 Author Share Posted September 9, 2004 I can pull the toilet if I have to, I was hoping to find an easier way, like flush it away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erynthered Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 I found this on Plumber.com. Go to the super market, get 12 cans of beans. Heat them up, enjoy them, then wait about 4 hours. COLON BLOW!!! That should take care of the tennis ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turd ferguson Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 its kind of like in the holy grail when the "french" soldiers went behind the castle wall laughing to each other with one saying "I told him we already had one", thats what rock's neighbor did when he was with the other neighbors "....I told him to 'cork' it with a tennis ball" I'm sorry, but that is the funniest thing I ever read.
