I'm not shure what they do. They can't do it so much now because a lot of places( and I know because I was in a pub here about one month ago and there was only one toilet with the unisex symbol on it and it was occupied and a lady who was about 40 was waiting and she said to me 'this is ridiculous, it was better when women had their own toilets because no offense but men pee on the toilet rim and seat and leave the toilet messed up) so woman can't do that anymore.

I am trying to figure out what I whould be good at doing for my next job. So far I have stock room person, but my employment agency whant me to come up wiht at least other ideas. So I am back to the drawing board to find out what that may be.
Working in a library? You seem to enjoy collecting books.

What you say is true (about the pee on the toilet seat etc.)

However, I now enjoy the freedom of going to the unisex bathroom because I have found in the past that women take way to long to do what they need to do, so I am left waiting in the hallway while I see one or two men go in and out and apparently do their business without taking 10 or 20 minutes to do it!

When I went to basic training in Cornwallis they taught us to get into the bathroom, do what we had to do, wash our hands and leave! No dillydallying - I wish every woman in the world would get this training, as I am sick of the ridiculous long lineups outside women's washrooms (especially at sporting events or concerts).

Working in a library is good, I've done it, I've got a diploma as a Library Technician.
Good for you :encouragement: - I don't have any diploma but for about 5 1/2 months I was the Station Librarian up at CFS Alert, back when it was part of the Northwest Territories. (Now it's called Nunavut).

What is the part of Canada that is an autonomous region for the First People's/Native Canadians? Have you ever been there? I knew this Canadian guy who was a barman here in Newcastle, a good guy, philosophical, he said he was a 'First Nations Canadian'. I think he moved to Melbourne. He married an Australian woman so he moved here from Canada. If I lived in Canada I would most probably like to live around the French Canadians.

In Nunavut the aboriginal people are called Inuit and they are different from the ones down south. At one time (a long time ago) they were called Eskimos.

There is a good book called People of the Deer by Farley Mowat (if you're interested in reading it). The area that Andy is in right now is that area. Farley Mowat lived with these people for a while and wrote about their lives.

Another book (that I enjoyed very much) was called The White Dawn by James Houston - that is another I would recommend you try! :encouragement::reading:

Okay, I check them out. I haven't read many fiction books dealing with Native peoples.

I want to thank all those of the female persuasion who have come forward to shed some light on the mystery of communal bathroom visitation.

Your insights into the female psyche have confirmed my suspicions. We will never totally understand each other. (Except for the safety in numbers, I get that).

But that is what makes the fairer sex both appealing and frustrating.

Y'all just confound us.

Bless you.

It's almost as if we're all individuals with our own ideas and motivations, isn't it?

As a human I know that the only difference between man and woman is a chromosome.

As a 54 year old male living with a woman I have been romantically involved with for 38 years I know that I will never figure out what is going on in the brain of the opposite sex.

It's ok I stopped trying after last March 1st.

Just enjoying the ride.

Why does the PAC 12 always get so much love during the basketball regular season by the talking heads on ESPN and other venues?

This year they already gone after first day of the tournament, including the many experts' favorite to take it all, Arizona.

Somebody please tell Bill Walton that neither the 60s nor John Wooden are walking through that door.
