Joel, I agree with you 100%, and you cannot turn on the television anymore without some wash up move star promoting some business and telling how good their service or products are.

Usually an "Erickson machine" which is a hand operated drum or "top snake" cable machine will extract a couple handfuls of hair at about 4 to 10 linear feet down the drain.This is the usual fix.If this does not solve your problem I reccomend the services of a professional drain cleaning company.These folks have rolling workshops with drain equipment of every description include fiber optic cameras that can inspect drains as small as 2" in diameter.Choose a firm that strictly specializes in drain cleaning opposed to genral plumbing.These guys solve problems like yours everyday ,,,theres quite a lot to it actually,,,and these guys have seen EVERYTHING believe me,,,Lynn if you indeed have broken remnants of tile or concrete in your shower drain it will be very difficult to correct in a "slab job" house.You may request a technician to attempt vacumning out the remnants with a "wet dry vacumn".He can then a attempt to clear it with a cable machine or a high pressure "Hydro Jetter" machine.If you had a raised foundation house of course you would have the option of a plumber working under the problem area and "chopping out " the section of clogged pipe and replacing it with new material.This is one of the many reasons I do not like nor will I invest in slab houses.Good luck Lynn and hope this helpsDave DoyleLos Angeles

@John Curseaden , funny you let that secret out, as I have done deals long ago where it appeared I could really hammer someone simply as eye wash with no intention of going there, it's certainly a motivator.

I want a solar powered generator, and this new solar powered machine that creates water too.

The box is also a built-in answering machine and has some other nice features.

It could be from more occupied units in our building or the noise has gotten louder - I don't think is all that relevant.We are also not sue happy people but we also know that no one should have to hear elevator noise each and every time the machine is moving

Any renter loves to wash their own cloths at the comfort of their home, versus going to laundromat.  

However, I came into the office one morning, to my bare and boring cubicle devoid of any anime, action figures, posters, toys, and all the other trinkets techie guys are notorious for collecting and displaying, and sat down at my machine.

Of course, I could pull all of that equity and reinvest it into some other vehicle, but for purposes of some principal protection I would really just be exchanging one for the other, since the 3-6% earned in something fairly bulletproof would be little more than a wash from the marginal tax benefit subtracted from closing & interest costs.

If you didn't you can file Form 3115 to "catch-up" on missed depreciation and then it'd basically be a wash on depreciation: the tax credit and tax due would cancel each other out UNLESS your marginal tax rate is higher than the 25% recapture max in which case you'd get more tax credit than tax due.
