Well I had to purchase a new 40 gallon water heater today and it cost nearly $600. with labor. I remember when I was a kid my dad always took care of all that household repair stuff for next to nothing. I was told the water heaters are sooo expensive now because they are made in (READY FOR THIS???) made in China and our plumbers need special wrenches costing $150.00 each....Good old American know how seems to be no more....Oh and while we're at it,
NO stinkng sports figure or news anchor or movie star is worth over a million dollars let alone what they are paid now..... [Roll Eyes] [Mad] [Eek!]
