When I saw this news article from Australia, I stopped all I was doing and decided to pop up at least a few kind words, as it is a holiday.
So then, on with the matter of the moment.
It’s World Toilet Day !
(And to think, I didn’t attend the parade !)
Experts call for end of flushing toilets on World Toilet Day
There’s even been a World Toilet Summit in Macau, hosted by Jack Sims of The World Toilet Organisation.
Of course our friends on the left in Australia couldn’t let things alone, so there’s now a proposal for a TOILET TAX throughout the land down under.
But the best part of the main article is saved for last…………”Toilet Facts”.
I’ll give you one of those facts. The rest are for you to discover. Learn well, Grasshopper.
Fact: “Most toilets flush in the key of E-Flat.”
If I’ve done my job properly providing real news you can use, this post will be at the top of Recommended Diaries within minutes and stay there for a long time to come.
Cheers !

That degrades, not celebrates, toilets!
Menlo (Diary) Thursday, November 20th at 9:15PM EST (link)It’s ironic that they use it to tell us how we’re wasting water with toilets. Otherwise, I’d say it’s great to have a day to honor such a wonderful innovation to society. I seriously think I’d commit suicide if I didn’t have my own flush toilet.
I’m SO sick and tired of these leftists telling us what kind of toilets we can use! Whatever happened to the “privacy” rights they rant and rave about. I can think of NOTHING more personal and private. I for one will NOT have the government getting into my bathroom! They did enough in 1992 when they banned the 3.5 gallon flush toilets. They are not going to do it again and have me comply!
As long as I am paying my water bills, I’ll use all the water I please.
Unfortunately, not all of us are fortunate enough to have the same smooth moves. These new water-saving designs just don’t work for all of us.
I think the “progressives” would prefer to send us back to outhouses.

Fortunately, Totodoes has come up with some add-ons to help move things along.

So it's come down to this, eh ?

I’m ashamed of myself for not thinking of this incredible marketing strategy.
