<Btw, today we had a Neo-Nazi rally here in the nation's capital. Estimates were that some 300 nazis would show up so the city responded by putting some 1,450 police on the streets to prevent a repeat of the riots that occurred during the last rally in the early '90s.>

<So anyway, do you know how many Neo-nazis apparently showed up?? Somewhere UNDER a dozen!!! 1,450 police to handle under a dozen protesters!!>

LOL. Threw a party and no one came. I'm happy the police took that precaution though.

Better safe than sorry.

If 300 neo-Nazis did show up, it would have been a pretty volatile situation. Glad there was a lack of support. These neo-Nazis and white Ayrians disgust me.

World's getting weirder and weirder.

<<Heard there is quite a black market for the old style toilets.>

And shower-heads!!!

A couple of years ago I did that ultra-luxe decorating of my Houston bathroom ... skylight, mirrored ceiling and walls, marble floors and bath. Tub with gold fixtures imported from France. And the d*mn shower faucet was wimpy!

Plumbers told me that all new shower-heads had some kinda water-saving things on them. Batted my eyes. Smiled a lot. Oh dear. Oh dear. What do I do???They got rid of some little thing and once again I had GREAT water pressure coming out of those shower heads.
