LOL.. Well for a number 1, I'd use a tree, and for a number 2, without going into too many details, I'd use a sand dune and paper napkins or towels, then wash up in a nearby river, lake, or the ocean.

Today's Question(s):

How many vehicles do you have at your home ?
Four.

Extra Credit Question:


If you had to, could you make do with just one vehicle ?
Probably not. All four of us have work, classes and places we need to be, at all hours, and we usually all travel different directions.

Bonus Question:

Do you or a family member have the day off for MLK Day ?
My sister's BF (basically a family member by now) had today off from work. Not only did I have to work, but we also had our annual inventory.

If so,do you have any special plans ?
Inventory. No fun at all.

Just for Fun:

What kind of seat do you have on your toilet
The standard ?
Fancy wood ?
Soft padded ?
Fake wood. We had real wood, but the men in this household (one in particular) tend to slam the toilet seat down and they broke the last one (tongue and groove came apart resulting into my sister falling in the toilet one day).


Today in History:
1980 - Pink Floyd's "Wall" hits #1
1993 - Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday observed in all 50 states for 1st time


Today is:

Get to Know Your Customers Day How about "not".

Too many. 3.

No. 2 is the minimum.

Just relatives who work for the federal government or schools. Most things are open today.

One has standard. One has cushioned. It came that way and I saw no reason to change it.
