I also noticed that when I clicked on "send" an ad for toilet paper appeared.

Laughed at this the first time I read it, and again and again today! Thanks for sharing.

This is for all who have travel in the far east and can identify. Chinese toilets are nothing like our comfortable 'western' ones. If you are lucky there are porceline foot pads and a porceline bowl. If your not so lucky you get to straddle the trench, or hole. If your in the bigger cities you get to have 'western' toilets. I remember once in Beijing we were eating in the hotel restuarant. Before sitting down to dinner I want to wash my hands. Well, as long as I'm there let's use the potty. Now the toilet paper is hanging right inside the door, not inside the doorless stalls. I remembered it this time! And oh, what luck, this is truly a four star hotel, they have western toilets! What luck! So there I am in the 'stance' staring at myself in the mirror over the sinks when someone open the door to enter the restroom. I looked into the mirror and with the door open I could see the entrance to the hotel!

Try going to the ladies room in a Japanese truck stop. They don't have flush toilets - at least the one I was at didn't. They have a trench with water running along the center of the cubicles. You have to squat. They don't have toilet paper - everyone brings their own. They don't have towels - just running water - again, everyone brings their own.

In contrast the high rise hotel in Tokyo had a throne that Capt. Kirk would envy - stream of warm water to wash you and heated air to blow you dry.

I will add one more paragragh to your story. You are in the casino bathroom with your large cup of money .You need to go to the bathroom before cashing in. You get into the stall and put your large cup of money on the metal shelf next to you. Someone comes into the next stall and slams the door :shock: You spend the next half hour picking up all your money(floor/toilet) .You leave the bathroom and head for the door.Husband ask ,"What took you so long". Response ,"we need to get this money home and put it in some bleach.True story
