I'm glad I could be of assistance in the humor department. You'd really laught if you could see me out there cursing a few. BUT, now laugh at this. How do I get the #$*! thing OUT to file it? REMEMBER: A lady with a temper and a stuck skimmer basket may result in hazardous conditions to the pool. NOW you got me laughing, but this is NO laughing mater
