    That’s what my grandmother and I used for the first 5 years of my life. For toilet paper we used the Sears catalog. (this was in the early 70’s, the catalog came mostly similar to newspaper except the middle 10 pages or so were the glossy color ones which do not work for that purpose.)

    It really wasn’t bad, except in the winter. Canadian winters and outhouses are a special experience… you did not dawdle when on one of those missions.














  • I asked my ex gf once if I should shave, her reply was that it didn’t matter to her.

    Several weeks later while I was shaving my beard, I had one of those sporadic moments where I thought to myself…why not? So I kept shaving. Shaved my head, chest etc, everything. By the time I was done I was more aerodynamic than a fighter jet.

    My gf refused to talk to me after that for two weeks.
