Water inlet hose repair goes awry
Working at Home Depot turned out to be a good idea. It took several trips into the store to finally come up with a collection of parts that would work in the confined spot I had available. The repaired inlet should work but I'm not really satisfied with the kludgy make-do nature of the repair.

Privileges
It would be possible, of course, to feel contempt for people entirely oblivious of the power structure within which they had their own security. But what do people in general know about how their privileges relate to their fellow citizens' lack of privileges? Is it possible, even, to live with an exact knowledge of where you yourself stand in the network of human exploitation?
