One thing that bugs me is he was so into his butterfly mark being perfect why would he slap his name like this onto a painting?

you would,nt have to do it if you did,nt put non bio-degradable shit down the drain...grease  is a no no,...un-cooked rice is another....do what i do, pour a cap full of drain opener down your plug hole once a week, and you,ll never need to dismantle the pipe work ever again....its just like giving your drain an enema.... ;D

if you like volcano effects...here,s a nice practical joke, ...just mix your baking soda,with yer sugar....or as i did once when i was working offshore, and the cook in the galley...who ..was a Texan from Galveston....who could,nt cook to save himself..but he was good at steamed puds,..anyway, me and another guy...another Texan...crept into the galley store, and we emptied a 7lb tin of baking powder into a 20lb tin of self-raising flour....having first removed some of the flour,....a few days later the cook was making a big steamed pudding, for the rig boss and the pusher,...suffice to say....they never got their steam pud....as the mix blew the lid off the 25gal steamer, and the pud dough went everywhere....poor cookie....he never again got  to make a steam pud.. ;D
