Oh my.

General Discusson on Skins's island is full of Sad Sacks, so I'm not going to bother with the miserable wretched primitives tonight.

Mineral rings in toilet bowl

What can I do to dissolve them? It doesn't look like rust, but rather lime or whatever else came out of the water and built up along the water line. They don't scrub out. Help?

1. Pour vinegar into the bowl, let it sit a while. It will dissolve calcium deposits and make it clean

3. We do this regularly. Do it at night or when you leave for the day, also makes the bathroom smell like pickles

4. Pumice stone

I had the same problem, but also with rust stains.

I bought a pumice stone in the housecleaning supply section at my local Walmart.

You wet the stone, rub the stains and flush.

Quite easy, IMHO, and I'm a disabled senior citizen.

Cost about $2.

Clean it more than once a decade you wouldn't have those problems.
It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.

Beat me to it! Did anyone call it on shopping at Wally World? Not worth rowing over to find out. Busy watchin' "the Joy of Painting".

It and the Antique Road Show are the only programs worth watchin' on the Big Bird channel.

 :lol: :lol:

I guess the smartest, bestest people on the innerwebz can't figure out to go how to go to the store and buy lime-away.   :loser: :loser: :loser:

We have extremely hard water here. Lime-away works great. I even use it on the stainless steel pots and pans when they get all the build up on them.

The cheapest solution is vinegar and baking soda - the same ingredients used in a middle-school volcano science project. The foaming, slightly abrasive mix will clean hard water stains out of anything.

I'm just wondering why they have commodes. Do they not use cop cars like their occupy heroes?
“Don’t vote for the person who tells you you deserve something. Just don’t do it if it’s something other than life, liberty, or the pursuit of possible happiness. If everyone is telling you you deserve something, vote for the one who is promising you the least. Be suspicious of the man or woman who tell you deserve everything. Because you don’t.” ---Mike Rowe

Nonsense.

The only acceptable solution for this problem is a half dozen sticks of dynamite.

For those DUmmies who can't score dynamite, an acceptable alternative is one pint of bleach and one pint of ammonia, provided the DUmmie stay there to continuously stir it.

I would further suggest that they remain seated during the procedure to ensure the blast is focused in the correct direction.
