Ha ha I have to laugh at your post Ross, it was too true. That would be a laugh if all of us got together and had to pee at the same time, people would be waiting days... It takes like 5 minutes to pee a true lasix pee, but ahh, does it feel great to get out! My advise for the day? It's for all you men

Always listen to your wives, we are all knowing...

Never walk out of the faculty bathroom without checking the condition of your clothing. First year I taught, I walked from the bathroom to my classroom door and then stopped for a second until the bell rang; unbeknownst to me, the back of my skirt was stuck up in the waistband of my hose. A girl who was late to class came up behind me and pulled it out saying she would never let me walk into a class like that and embarrass myself. Imagine my shock No tardy for her

Never walk on visquine [also known as plastic sheeting]! Been there, tried to do it and boy, talk about a slip & fall.

If you have a Mexican relative (I do) and they throw a taco party, make sure you KNOW which is the jalapeno bowl.

I was in the jury room with our group of jurists. We broke for lunch but some of us had to go - (well, two of us). The restroom was inside the jury room and I opened the door - uh oh. I shut it real quick. I never looked the fella in the eye again.

If you live in Fla....get the h__l out Frances is coming for you. Bonnie

HAHAHA, I have this mental picture of all of us standing at gas station or restaurant jiggling nervously with our legs half crossed, doing the pee pee dance, waiting for the restroom to be free.

Been there, done that...


The worst is when stuck in traffic or caught on the phone with someone who REFUSES to wrap up the call.


Lasix isn't that bad really, just takes a little planning when you're on it, a little common sense.

You do NOT take the stuff an hour before going to bed, that's just dumb.

My tip for the day.


Always treat the firefighters nice. You'll be more likely to get shots like this:

 

[Harpoon]

By the way, he got a nice color print of the photo, with a frame, to put up in the firehouse. I've seen it while shooting their annual officers installation banquet.

They keep offering to invite me and my wife to the banquet now, but it's always on a night when we're both working and haven't been able to make arrangements to go yet.

I usually end up with a couple of plates full of appetizers to bring back to the office though.

A few local fire and police departments tend to treat me very nice...


And of course I return the favors as often as I can. I've found that gets me a lot more access than the photographer/reporter who just tries to barge his/her way through under the "cloak" of the First Amendment.

AMEN to that Harpoon, I did that once, andgot like 15 minutes worth of sleep that night! I actually got lost on the way to the bathroom that night. My first night home, the bathroom was right next to the bedroom. I never did THAT again!

We, as heart patients need to invent SOMEthing to pee in while driving! I was subbing for a guy(NYT's route, long and tedious) and the minute I left the station, you got it, I had to pee, and it became PAINFUL towards the end of the night. No open gas stations, having to pee=NO FUN. I bolted into the house and RAN to the bathroom. That was this morning.

My list of things I have vowed NEVER to do again:

A) Ride a coach bus

B) Spit into a cup or have one set aside specificially for use as a spitoon (from the days after I had my wisdom teeth pulled, VERY disgusting...)

C) Use some kind of receptical (whether designed for it or not) to use as a urinal while either driving or riding in a car.

D) Piss in my pants.


So far, I've been pretty good with all of this. I've had a few moments of GREAT "wiggle-ness" when I really needed to use relieve myself and no relief was in sight, or would be for some time.

I will admit to having "relieved" myself at least once or twice in a non-designated area. I try to be discreet and I don't like it, but sometimes there's just no other option besides wet pants which really isn't an option at all.

Easier for guys than girls, but there are still times I know when all modesty and self-respect take a momentary back seat in the name of maintaining one's dignity through the rest of the day/evening...

Remember that comercial with all the cars driving down the freeway with Honeypots on a trailer behind them? Sometimes that would be GREAT! My husband was telling me once when he was stationed out in Jersey, and ended up getting stopped by a really LONG train, he had to pee really bad, so he pissed in an empty soda bottle...I guess it took like 3 bottles to hold it all! I guess that's better than pissing your pants! I remember when I was on Lasix, it didn't wait, I had to be ON the toilet 2 seconds after the urge hit! It's all good though. All you REALLY have to do is.. if your wife is driving, stick you yoo hoo out the window and let er rip!

Never forget you wife's birthday. ...... I wonder if that is why she is my ex-wife now???

 

[Ross]

Never, ever, pee on an electric fence.
