[Ads-l] Busted Spicket

[W Brewer]

Initial visit report to State Farm. <<Water source outside Spicket burst
flooded inside of kitchen and basement area.>>
Thanks to the internet, I now realize that my Mexican water faucet has a
leak.
Cf. William Edgerton, 1948, A Note on 'Spigot' and 'Spicket', American
Speech 23.1:33-3.
