Is "faucet" a metaphor?

And how can one "live blog" on a message board?

Be careful, I can think of one enormous Drip who might think you're name calling.

Are we talking bathroom or kitchen faucet here? I need to get all the facts before I can contribute to this stimulating thread...or is it a blog entry...now I'm confused.

That damn Bill Clinton didn't get there in time to tighten your pipes*, did he? It's all his fault.

*or whatever the proper plumber terminology is...

Do leaky toilets count?

What about leaky cups?

I also know of one leaky cauldron.

I have a leaky watering can for my plants, it only leaks when there's water in it though. If I fill it up and let it leak can I participate or is this a faucets only sorta of thing?

My wife said that she was going to bed and that I had to fix my faucet on my own!

Turn off the water supply to the leaky faucet. Water shutoffs are often located under the sink but in older homes there may only be one main water shut off for the entire house, usually located where the water pipe enters (often facing the street).

2. Open the faucet and let any water in the pipes drain out. (Image 1)

3. Put in the sink drain plug or put a towel in the sink bottom. Faucets have small screws and you don't want to lose one down the drain. (Image 2)

4. Remove the faucet handle. Virtually all handles are attached with a screw often hidden under a decorative cap that can be pried off with a small screwdriver. (Image 3)

5. 5. Remove the workings of the faucet and determine what kind of repair is required (see Tips). Once you have identified what kind of faucet you have, see the related eHow for details on repairing your particular faucet.

Farrah's face leaks sometimes.

Because Pal Joey's faucet has an irregular drip rate, I'm wondering if he perhaps has water pressure issues as well.

Don't be embarassed...PJ. We've all been there.

I'm leaking, but that happens often especially when conditions are just, well, right.

Thank you all for validating my Live Blogging.

Already my thread has more posts than that OTHER Live Blogging thread. Soon it will have more views as well--and it's been up for only half an hour.

I can't tell you how much this means to a Manhattan Liberal like myself.

I'm so verklempt I may have to start a blog.

Here's a little poem I hope you'll all believe I wrote myself:

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O, no! it is an ever-fixed mark,
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

PalJoey, you have it in you to be the next Shakespeare with that poem.
