If you're reading this, you have too much time on your hands.
I spent it up on my roof, probably confusing the crap out of my neighbors, with a 50-foot chunk of plumbing snake, trying to clean out my drains (which backed up in my bathrooms) and then scrubbing everything clean so I wouldn't be repulsed using it again.

Must be one of those awesome As-Seen-On-TV gadgets hawked by Billy Mays: The Mighty Handy Kaboom Auger Snake Buddy ;-)
