My dad is a farmer out there in Iowa, and he's well-versed in carpentry and mechanics as well as agriculture. He's added three rooms onto his home by himself and fixes his own tractors and combines with the help of his hired hand. Growing up, I used to assist him in his work. I've scooped my fair share of corn, greased a few wheels, replaced a few radiators and hoed more than a few rows of beans. It's hard, horrible work for not a lot of money. That's why I live in Los Angeles and do internet work. I grew up on a farm. My dad is a farmer out there in Iowa, and he's well-versed in carpentry and mechanics as well as agriculture.

If we would tally up the amount of water coming from leaking toilets across America, it would quickly add up to over 5.5 million gallons. While some toilets offer the telltale sign of phantom flushing (running water when nobody is using it), other toilets leak silently, and can often be very hard to detect.
