**I think I need to call a plumber  
My Former Step-Son Called Me After 7 Years**

I thought he’d moved in with his mom. Turns out he was stuck in the U-bend. I don’t even want to _think_ of how my feces made it from the bowl to the sewer with him in the way. (_Why_ did I have to watch the _South Park_ ‘Humancentipad’ episode?) At least he didn’t starve. Well, I finally heard him yelling. I have an Armitage Shanks toilet, so I crank Green Day when I’m in there. Fortunately for the step-son, my MP3 player got corrupted and I had to evacuate in silence. Anyway, I couldn’t get him out. Time to turn to a professional. I don’t know if the plumber will try to get him out with a snake (‘rooter’) or try to force him down the other way. I’ll let him figure it out. That’s why they make the big bucks.
