80 Peso Tap

80 Peso Tap
Pedro went to the hardware shop and got an 80 peso tap. His old silver tap was a fucker. It popped off and soaked him, flooding the bathroom.
His new tap worked a treat. Fresh clear water poured forth. It was time to pamper himself. Simple pleasures. What joy!
He was having a bath when the quake hit. Wham bam Pedro was fucked. Down tumbled his house. His broken body wasn't pretty.
Next the volcano erupted. Lava engulfed what was left of his old home. His tap was fine. Water flowed happily as can be.
Then came the ocean meteor struck with following tsunami. More death and destruction. 80 peso tap functioned. The water was slightly brown.
A typhoon brought torrential rain. Floods were two metres deep. Winds were wicked. 80 peso tap worked underwater.
The landslide from the unstable mountain covered the valley. Three cubic miles of rock covered disaster town. The tap juddered.
The 80 peso tap. Disaster proof. Buy one today at your nearest hardware store. A lifetime investment, destined to outlive you.
We are fanboys/gals of the 80 peso tap. Pedro is dead. His tap still works where his town once was.
