    Default Ok...so i made a mistake

    My wife asked me if i would run to the store & pick up a package of toilet paper. Being the best husband i can be ( and knowing the proper answer) i said sure. I go...grab the TP check out & go home. Now...you would assume all was well upon my arrival back home.....not so fast grasshopper....apparently during a well planned corporate meeting in a remote area ,known only too those with the need to know, it was decided to market 1 ply TP. Now me not being a person to follow such corporate decisions didnt know there is a differance in TP....my wife being understanding of my lack of knowledge......said "its ok honey, i will take it back". Now that all is well with my home life ( for now) my question is this.......why in the hell would anybody want very thin TP. Is it some sort of gooey fetish that some people relish? Am i missing something? As i see it, the high ups in the corp world dont have to worry cause they probably have people to wipe for them.....it seems they setting us up for failure. Lol was just a fun observation.

    I think that they only sell that one-ply stuff as a huge joke.

    Only it really ain't all that funny!

    If I could get away with mounting a paper-towel dispenser in the throne room: I'd do it in a second!

    Default TP

    generally, we will use thinner TP in the camper since it breaks down quicker in the blue water.

    That's the only place where I try to use it also... I may just go to my paper towel trick, and use a "diaper bag" in the RV throne room for them...

    Have you ever tried the Calgon and ice cubes trick, to clean out the blackwater tank?

    My wife would kill me if I brought that thin stuff home.


    Brings to mind a joke I heard some time ago.......
    A father and his son ran out of toilet paper in the woods, so the father had to go and when he came back to the son, the son ask what he had wiped with? The father proudly said, "Why, I used a dollar!" The son didn't say much after that and it wasn't long before he had to go.

    He was gone for a while and finally came out shaking his hand, trying to rid it of poo. The father ask what happened. The son replied angrily, "Those 4 quarters did not help me one bit!"

    I guess some things can't be taught and must be experienced firsthand!

    It's a good thing that he didn't use a five-dollar bill; or higher!

    I'm glad that you asked...
    Eventually the black and gray tank sensors start acting wonky: they get clogged up with... hide.gif
    The... stuff that gets dumped into the sewer can also get stuck in the tanks...
    So you take a couple of bags of ice cubes, about a cup or so of Calgon, and throw all of that in the tank.
    Add water until it's about two-thirds full, and go for a drive!
    The Calgon slicks stuff up, and the ice cubes knock stuff loose...
    Open the valves, and get ready for a deluge!
