    If you're going to Branson: you might as well go to SpyderFest!
    Plan your trips to coincide!

    Once again, the SpyderFest timing is not in conjunction with my teaching schedule. And...then there is the one week plus travel back and forth if we were to ride the 's. My intent, would be to fly into Springfield, rent a couple from Pitbull, go to Branson and then down to Arkansas to visit with my brother. It will probably be later in the summer than the Fest.

    PPS) And the military had regs that said you could only use seven squares when doing a sit-down.
    Did you have to draw straws, in order to determine who got to count the squares??

    You can eat anytime there, though my preference is around 8PM. This is fortunate since my wife is Portuguese!

In Japan they have a hole in the floor and the sink plumbing is directed to that hole to flush. A water saving system idea. Perhaps a rain water off roof gutter is also a great idea to flush a toilet.

    In the early 70s TP on the German trains was really bad. And there was a shortage on TP in the supply system so most of us bought our own from the PX. Never had to ask where someone was headed when you passed them in the hall. And you might forget your hat in the latrine, but you always made sure your TP went with you when left.

    Hi Cliff,

    Re: your TP went with you when left.

    In France we had French civilians doing some of the menial work in the hospital.

    When we were low on TP we knew who had taken it.

    When I first arrived in Argentina,I thought the people were very well informed because they all had a newspaper under there arm. Then I found out that there was no tp in restrooms and the newspaper was to use in place. I soon became quite well read also.

    I actually prefer my bacon and my peanut butter, to be in different places...

    It's kind of like having the two top-seeded teams have to play each other in the first round...
