  See, I knew that was a myth anyway.  Never mind the fact I'm half 
blind and have hair _everywhere_ except my head.  Which is probably a 
good thing, because that would be kinky otherwise.

  I'm suprised actually.  My mother asked me if I could look up the 
internet for the correct water usage restrictions.  We agreed it was 
just common sense.  Except for the pool bit.

  You can bet all the water Nazis would be flushing in the privacy of 
their own homes then.  They don't really care about water usage, they 
just care they know more than anyone else.

  My two year old niece had the simlar idea when she held her water mug 
upside down, wet the floor and rub her hands on it.  (she liked the feel 
of wet polished floorboards).

  Her mother told her to stop that, it's supposed to be for drinking.

  So she swallows a bit, spits it out, swallows some more, spits it out 
etc, till she was soaked, along with the floor, where she promptly 
rubbed her hands again.

  I like even better when a friend's father wanted to take a cotton 
sheet with them to queensland and if asked it was good enough.  When I 
asked why, (I missed part of the conversation), they said it was to 
cover their car to stop the paint from fading.

  Prodding further, I asked why a proper car cover wouldn't be better 
though I shouldn't have asked- wogs try to get the cheap way out.

  Then I asked why bother with anything, when the car is ten years old 
and parked outdoors in Campsie.

  That didn't go down too well.
