This is another situation where the pre-drilled laser drip is very
useful.... the tiny hose pressurizes equally throughout so the water
spreads fairly evenly throughout the area you want to water, rather than
all collect at the lowest point.

So goes an old chinese proverb:
If you want to be happy for a few hours, get drunk;
If you want to be happy for a week-end get married;
If you want to be happy for a week, barbeque a pig;
If you want to be happy all your life long become a gardener
