Ok, boys and girls. Now for today's lesson from Cap'n Reg. I remember when my dad went to visit Moscow on a US medical tour. He came back with two important lessons learned. No, they weren't about the medical system in the Soviet Union. They were: (1) a lengthy discussion on how to properly drink vodka, and (2) ALWAYS take toilet paper with you when you visit there. This stuff is like cardboard paper . . . ROUGH cardboard paper, at that! No wonder there was such motivation for reunification in the late '80s.

Hey, at least they have toilet paper. Do a little checking back in history... it's gross.
When Kevin was in Saudi Arabia not only were the toilets not real toilets but pits in the floor with shoe outlines on either side to help you figure out not to step IN the hole, but there was a toilet paper hander-outer (the official Saudi term, I believe) who judiciously handed two or three squares to each person entering the rest room. If you needed more, you (a) humiliated yourself by (b) buying what you needed. God forbid the water or food be wreaking havoc on your stomach! You'd be dreaming of that cardboard toilet paper in Germany.
And did you take toilet paper with you?
This is confusing. All the posts say they're by Debbie, but I know MY dad didn't go on a medical tour in the Soviet Union. You need to have a rule that says you'll sign your posts so we know who's going where and whose perspective we're reading. So, new rule: Sign the posts in your Blog. Does this sound like a Mohr, or what?
. . . but, Pam . . . I did start the posting off with saying it was a lesson from Cap'n Reg. Isn't that enough?
Oh. I never did do too well teh comprehension & recall areas. And it really would make it much easier if you guys would identify who's writing each entry.
Obviously spelling and composition weren't strong areas, either.
No toilet paper in rural Guatemala either. And you can't flush anything like toilet paper down the toilets anywhere there. Plus lots of hardly-any-privacy outdoor toilets.
Perry . . . you've got to post some pictures!
