It all started when I noticed a strange smell coming from under the kitchen sink. At first the odor was so slight that I thought it was just my super-sensitive nose acting up. (Yes, I admit it: I am the type who spends several weeks every spring sniffling and snuffling as seasonal allergies afflict my schnoz. Im also the type who notices lingering cigarette smoke in a room at fifty paces. On the plus side, you dont need to ask twice I love to stop and smell the flowers.)

The Perfume

Over time, as the perfume grew in intensity, I took action and emptied the under-sink area. The process reminded me of going to the circus and watching all those clowns climb out of a Volkswagen. Whoda thunk I had so much stuff stashed in that small space! I scrubbed the cabinets interior top, bottom, and sides with a soapy bleach solution. Then I gave the trash can, also normally stored under the sink, a good scouring as well.

All was fine for a few days. Then the aroma returned. I wondered whether I should call a plumber in my area to come have a whiff, but as a new homeowner, I wasnt sure who to contact or how much they would charge. (Somehow I couldnt imagine that my firstborn would be willing to spend the next 20 years as a Miami plumbers apprentice, no matter how much he loves the beach.)

So I dithered and dallied until *the* night.

*The* Night

It started like so many of my evenings. I was typing away on the computer until far later than was good for me. Finally ready to toddle off to bed, I paused to wash the few dishes left in the kitchen sink. And then I heard it the unmistakable drip, drip of water coming from somewhere it was not supposed to be.

Bravely I opened the bottom cupboard door and gave the plumbing a fierce look. I could see liquid oozing from the hot water valve, so I tried turning the valve in an attempt to shut it off. The piece came off in my hand I still get the shudders thinking of it! and the flow became a torrent.

I raced for the water main ("conveniently" placed by my homes previous owner on the exterior wall). Once the water was turned off, the next steps were to clean the flood and phone my insurance company. NOTE: Trying to multitask by doing these at one and the same time was not an efficient course of action.

Authorities say a man and his mother used plumber's tape to keep an 11-year-old boy restrained for several hours at a time at a southwestern Michigan home.

The Van Buren County sheriff's department says that 28-year-old Randall Hamilton and 46-year-old Peggy Hamilton are jailed on $1 million bonds after their arraignment Wednesday on torture and child abuse charges in South Haven District Court.

Their next hearing is Sept. 8. The Associated Press left messages Thursday seeking comment from their lawyers.

Sheriff Dale Gribler says Randall Hamilton is the boy's mother's boyfriend.

Gribler says deputies found the malnourished boy walking on a road Tuesday, and he said he ran away from his Geneva Township home after being physically abused.

The sheriff says authorities also removed a 2-year-old boy from the home.

SOUTH HAVEN, Mich. Authorities say a man and his mother used plumber's tape to keep an 11-year-old boy restrained for several hours at a time at a home in southwestern Michigan.

The Van Buren County sheriff's department says the 28-year-old man and his 46-year-old mother are being held on $1 million bond after being arraigned Wednesday on charges of torture and first-degree child abuse in District Court in South Haven.

The Herald-Palladium of St. Joseph reports the man is the boyfriend of the boy's mother.

Sheriff Dale Gribler says deputies found the boy walking alone on a road early Tuesday. According to Gribler, the boy told deputies he ran away from home in Geneva Township after being physically abused. He says the boy also was found to be extremely malnourished.
