Rocky, if you're a little tentative on soldering the thingie back on yourself and there's no repair place nearby, consider taking it to a jeweler's. Tell them to soft-solder (60/40 tin/lead) the blivet back for you. These guys do a lot of fine soldering day in and day out and should be able to do the work for you pretty cheaply, if you don't mind a little scorched lacquer.
Just don't take it to a plumber.
