Sam Trans

Standing in front of a glass-enclosed bus shelter, I noticed that I looked fat. I'm not skinny, but I'm not fat either. I'm now putting Sam Tran on notice that I will begin a petition drive to install flattering glass panels on the walls where bus patrons are most likely to stand and notice their reflection. The self-image of the poorer citizens in our county should be given some consideration.

Look for the petition soon in your neighborhood.

Toilet Privileges and Miscegenation

Recently a Southern Justice of the Peace (JP) refused to issue marriage licenses to mixed-race couples because he believed that their children would suffer. The children would not be accepted by the families of the parents. He claimed he was not a racist and even let Blacks use his bathroom.

Let's quickly pass over everything difficult in race relations and get right to the use of one's bathroom by the "Other," any other, even one's own mother.
Now, does this JP stand on his front porch and invite strangers to use his bathroom? Is it common knowledge that if your plumbing is clogged you can go over to the JP's house and do your business? Does so and so's third cousin, just home from jail or a treatment center, run in with the runs? Sure, use the toilet, I'll make you a cup of coffee.

The toilet topic opens up like a sewer in a shanty town, but I won't persue it. Just think Airport Restroom for a while.
