During the renovation process, the women and men had to share a restroom (a single stall with a lock on the main door). One of the men who worked there was really insulted when one of the women put up a little sign which said,<br />"We aim to please.<br />Would you aim, too, please?"<br /><br />I had never heard of the target emblems in the urinals. I like the idea of a candle emblem. What would be cool is a candle emblem in which the "flame" disappears when the target is hit. LOL<br /> <br />The live oaks are very interesting. I love trees (but generally don't hug them). There were not any live oaks in the area I grew up in; their range is farther east. I don't know about ship masts, but the framework of the USS Constitution was made of live oak and earned the nickname "Old Ironsides."<br />You may have read in tne news recently about some nut who poisoned the historic live oaks at Toomer's Corner (Auburn U.). Hopefully the trees can be saved.B.

They were all very tall and had huge trunks. On their visits my Mom and Dad marveled over their size. Thanks for the memories. Now watch your aim! How is Johnny doing? Keeping him in our prayers! <br />'love & hugs from afar'Cher' Shotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14946818491901881410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-51297386475424936012011-02-24T09:28:56.668-05:002011-02-24T09:28:56.668-05:00I'll show this post to the maintenance crew at...I'll show this post to the maintenance crew at work...maybe we can replace the "Mystery Flusher"....but, we'd probably have to get the governors approval.....LOLOLOL....can you see that budget and work request.....stay safe...BlueRidge Boomerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00549047992944619968noreply@blogger.com
