OH NO.


I have made a terrible endorsement.

Why? Sheryl ???? Why?

Apparently, Sheryl Crow has her own blog. And apparently she is crazy.

Formerly known as the Coolest English Teacher turned Rock Star, in my book, Crow is now a raving lunatic. She writes about being "Green" in the craziest terms, suggesting that we only use one square of toilet paper each go. Has she, herself, ever gone to the bathroom? Most likely not, or else she would know that one square (even if it's double ply) does not get the job done. I for one, like to use about 18 squares. In fact, when I lived at home, Molly and I sometimes went through a roll in one day. And I don't care, because, to me, using tons of TP is not an environmental issue, it's a hygene issue. Take that, Sheryl.
S.C. also writes about her knew clothing line she developed so that the human race no longer has to use napkins. Her shirts come with an attachable "dining sleeve" for us to wipe our mouth and nose on. That way, we won't have to use wood from virgin trees in order to produce napkins. I think this is a fine idea, Sheryl! Let's revert BACK to the etiquette tactics of the caveman and wipe our spaghetti stained mouth with our sleeve.


So let it be known throughout the land, that I am no longer a fan. I will still keep "Good is Good" on repeat in my car, but other than that, the Tricia and Sheryl relationship is null and void.

That has to be a joke, right? I just read it and that is ridiculous. My grandfather always told me to use one square, but his demonstration was to stick your finger through the toilet paper, and then use the paper to wipe off your finger. Thanks, Daddy Doc!
I must admit I get on to Luke for using to much TP. Coming from a house with a septic system, we were only allowed 3-4 squares a sitting. That's why we all use Kandoos, baby wipes, or the like. Is this TMI for a blog?

Amanda, nothing is too much info for a blog.

Tricia, do what we do:
We (by "we", I mean Trey and myself, Sophie goes all-nat-u-ral in the backyard) each have a cloth, wipe cloth, if you will. We each have one per week. At the end of the week, we wash it with cold water (saves energy).

I just got a mental picture of this. Gross.

Sorry for making up that up.

I use an insane amount of TP, except at camp in Maine where the TP was kinda rough. I used sparingly there.

i'm reminded of the seinfeld episode: "can you spare a square?"....
i use as much TP as i feel like.

i've never been a fan of S.C....i'll take you to see george strait sometime and you'll see what love is all about.
