if you ever walk into a men's room, and all the stalls are occupied.... and come from one of them, is the sound of someone playing in the water.....turn around and leave...like I just did....there are things I simply do not want to know about my colleagues

Bear with me for some "all the stalls are occupied" humor.....

In 84, bunch of us had ringside seats at Madison Square Garden to watch Marven Hagler defend his middleweight crown against Mustafa Hamsho.

Just before the main event I had to go to the bathroom. So I went to the nearest one and it was packed like sardines, everybody crowded in waiting for an open stall. I started to fidget and a couple guys look at me and ask, "Hey, do you actually have to use the bathroom?"
"Yes, I do" says I. As they're shouting this out I notice each stall has several pairs of feet in them, like three or four pairs of feet. Several of the stall doors open and guys are coming out with white powder all over their noses. "Here you go, and hurry up, we have more lines to do before the fight."

The whole damn bathroom was coking it up big time. I think it was the only time I couldn't stop laughing while using a rest room.

Whereas women's bathrooms are usually crowded because there are simply more women needing to go to the bathroom, because we have an extra organ wedged in next to our stomach and bladder. I feel so dull....

At the airport where I work there are women's rest rooms and men's rest rooms. On a daily basis things are left in the women's rooms - phones, bags, luggage, drivers licenses, purses yada yada. But I cannot recall even one instance where something was left in a men's room.

Never could figure that out. Must be sunspots or something.

Any progress?
I got power back either tuesday night or wednesday night. Lost all my food, opened the fridge after to remember that i had gone food shopping the night before the outage. Really upset me (and my budget) having to throw it all out.

Interesting... I've never left anything in a public restroom. Even more interesting - all the stories about leaving stuff in public restrooms, including airport restrooms, were told to me by men, but never by women. You are right - I think it's sunspots.

Early 80s I was at what I call my fighting weight, I was 220 and 6'1" tall, At a concert between bands, the mens room gets really crowded with a real long line. I headed there just before the band was finished and it was not to bad. Then it came in like a stampede behind me. I am finally close to my destination and I hear someone yelling behind me..XUE, YOU SOB....you have your NERVE showing your face here....I turn to see a 6'3" guy in the door way, built like a football lineman, I respond with (this is not his name by the way but then mine is not really Xue either) "SAMPSON!!! who the HELL do you think you are talking to me like that. We head towards each other, swearing at each other and yelling threats....the mens room clears out...we meet, shake hands ask each other "how you doing" turn and go use the facilities....he was an old friend of mine from high school...quickest visit ever to a mens room at a concert.

Winter outages are so much easier to deal with, in that sense. If they last too long, you start putting stuff in coolers and setting them outside. In the summer, there's only so much you can do about it.
