The paper towel controversy
I am
often asked if
I posed for the "Brawny Lumberjack," likness. I just wink and let them decide for themselves. What a coincidence! The towels that drive me crazy are the ones that only give you a postage-stamp sized piece of paper because they seem to think that using a WHOLE sheet is wasteful! Guy

I think 'it's all in the wrist', as they sometimes say in golf (I think, but I'm a lousy golfer, so don't take my word for it, lol). Anyway, I use half a roll where my wife uses half a sheet. The upshot is that I'm not allowed to clean up messes, which is fine by me...

Im irritated by those cleaning products that claim one quick spray and
the dirt melts away. Im still scrubbing like a madwoman and the place still doesnt look like on the tv. I feel like suing them for false advertising.

Ah, but have you ever had to console the heart of a lumberjack? I have. They've hearts of gold of which we mine their tears. Their hearts, their sweat and their blood to pick up our spills. I dated a lumberjack once. 6'9" and he carried me everywhere. I'm smiling. --Joy!Mary
