Ewwwww!!!!

Ever see a "honey pot" from an airplane?

Dad would bring home unused ones for us to store toys in, they looked like 5 gallon sized dixie cups... (Waxed cardboard)

Also you put me in mind of the time I changed out a heater in one of the local sewer's metering stations... A little building that measures the sewage from the adjacent town for billing purposes...

I had to stand across a 2 foot wide canal with raw sewage rushing through at an alarming rate... (don't drop a tool, indeed!)

Procedure was as follows:
Stand outside, hyperventilate. Run inside while holding breath, remove screw from old heater, run back out, repeat process until heater is removed, continue process until heater is replaced... GAG!
