November the 19th, Specials Days

Today, November the 19^th is International Men’s Day.

November the 19^th is also World Toilet Day

In researching for the appropriate illustration for this blog reminds of in the 1980s  at a Braves Game I went right in the men's restroom, did my business, and went right out, passing by a long line of ladies for the Women's Restroom.

Which also reminded me of the Peachtree Road Race.   Ones of the years I participated the race would start on Peachtree Street in the Buckhead area.  Before the race it was not unusual toe see a bush with a woman's head behind the bush like she was in a stooping position.  Then, there was a canvas wall with a sign saying MEN, WORLD'S LARGEST LATRINE.  It was in a shopping center parking lot.  The latrine was a long brick shallow brick gutter to control water flow during rain storms.  As I was using it three or four women came in together and one made the announcement, "if you don't like it?  Tough shit!"  And the women hunkered down over the latrine and did their business.
