Spencer's Super-Happy Fun-Time Right-Wing Word Pit

For those of you who travel, getting a decent travel is as allusive as getting a good night's sleep. Many hotels now offer soothing pillow-top beds that float you off to dreamland in a cloud of weightless bliss. And as nice as that may be, it is not always the case. My travels take me all accross the Unites States of Florida and a few other places. Most of the time, I find myself in the embracing arms of pillowy goodness but now and then, I get a real bummer of a hotel room. When you don't get good sleep, the shower's quality is the difference between a great day and hell on earth.

Unfortunately, our hippy brethren and their unshaven counterparts have done their best to make sure that none of get a shower either. The low-flow shower heads are the bane of the travelers existence and when that shower head is in a state like Florida, other deposits like salt and lime can turn a low flow head into a trickling nightmare.

As a frequent traveler, I have found a way to overcome the low-flow and create an awesome shower experience.

You can barely see it, but the water coming out of this shower head just drips to the floor. Lowsy.

Here are the tools necessary to begin...

1. Get that shower head off of there.... Use your wrench to turn the head counter-clockwise until it is fully removed.
2. Remove the filter screen. Yuck!
3. Well there's your problem. Let's get that little sucker out of there.
4. Place your drill between all of the tabs. Drill that sucker out! Get Some!!!
5. Once you have drilled through, use your little screwdriver to pry out the rubber gasket. It may take some doing, but if you just mash it around like a fool, it will eventually come out.
6. Next, break off the tabs. Why? Because I hate you, tabs!!! WHY CAN'T I HAVE THE WATER!!!
7. Make sure that you tap out all of the debris.
8. Now that's clean!
9. Put some pipe-tape in the pipe threads so the you create a good seal.
10. Re-attach the shower head by twisting in a clockwise motion. Use the pipe-wrench to make sure it is good and tight.
11. Check it out, the water is blasting the other side of the shower!
12. Take your shower and dream of dead polar bears. Screw you, nature!

I hope you found this hack helpful. Make your next hotel stay fantastic!
