No Water For You

This afternoon the wife called and let me in on the catastrophe of the day.
The water company was banging at the door and having to turn off our water. It seems that the fitting between the new polybutylene pipe and the house broke.
About 18 months ago the poly line to the house failed just like every other house in the neighborhood. Last summer the fitting on the other end of the new piping failed.
The plumbers took care of everything fixing the leak, just like they did last summer. They are nice honorable people, but their parts are for shit.
The water man said we used 139,000 gallons in the last month. Get this there were no signs of the leak in the house or in the yard. Can't wait to get that big fat bill.
Just realized that bill is set up for electronic funds transfer, I'm guessing that the account will get wiped out.
Where did all the water go, a sink hole under the house?
