Terry Love's Consumer toilet reports, a report on low flow toilets.
That Simpsons episode makes more sense to me, now that I had a new toilet installed.

I was concerned when the plumber asked me where I bought my toilet, and I told him Home Deport.

"Oh", he said and paused.

Turns out that Toto is the brand to get, but Home Depot doesn't sell them.

Too bad the first plumber, who never showed up, told me to just go down to Home Depot and pick up a toilet.

This American Standard toilet seems ok. Not much of a splash down target area though, if you know what I mean.

I'm going to download The Dondero High School Symphony Band & A Capella Choir's versions of Fox On The Run and Sunshine Of Your Love right now.

Sticker Shock.
This is what happened today.

I went to the car dealer and got a new set of wiper blades and a new headlight.

Then I went to a gas station for an inspection sticker.

The technician came out and said that I needed a new set of wiper blades and my headlights adjusted.

I told him that I just purchased new wiper blades from my dealer 1 hour ago.

He said they were 'streaky'.

I asked him to show me and he said, "no, you can't go in there," meaning the garage.

I told my story to the station manger who went in to take a look.

He came out and said I needed new wiper blades and my headlights adjusted.

$77 dolars later I left with my new inspection sticker.

BAD BOYS II.
Whatcha gonna do when they come for you?
