When it gets a bit drier out, I might look into replacing/patching up that bit of interior pipe. The above post was more me ranting against the universe than anything else.

After burning out our sump pump since I left our hose clamped to the outlet all winter (frozen doesn't work), we paid $250 for a new pump. I cut the hose so it wouldn't be so long that it would freeze again, but not so short that it dumps water on the side of the house. Now that it's above freezing again, I bought another 24' hose from Tru-Value for $15. Money well spent, my man. That and some plumber's putty might reduce your woes. Madness!
