Bathroom Thoughts
Ever notice that public restrooms sometimes mount the paper towel dispenser so high that the water drips up your arms when you reach for the towel?

Do you agree that you should “Avoid using the handicapped stall unless you are entitled to do so?” I think that is bad advice. The handicapped are perfectly capable of waiting a few minutes for their stall to become available and it is silly to leave a stall vacant when there is a long line of people waiting to use the facilities.

I’m trying to imagine how the musician would sell their CD’s. A folded tent card on each table? Regular sales pitches between songs?
