                     ON A ROLL!

     If you're a regular blog reader. that's
 great! Especially today! August 26th is
"National Toilet Paper Day!"
     This everyday commodity is usually
taken for granted.  It's difficult to imagine
it hasn't been around forever!
     A guy named Joseph Gayetty gets
the credit for producing the first
commercially available toilet paper in
this country. That was in 1857. That's
38 years before the Sears Catalog came
along. (You older readers will have to
explain the connection between the two
for younger ones!)
      In the name of full disclosure I
should point out my son-in-law works
for the Cascade Company which
manufactures paper products, including
toilet paper, at a plant right here in
Luzerne County!
      As I noted, wed tend to take toilet
paper for granted. We expect it to be
there when we visit a public rest room
and it's more than just disappointing
when we find an empty roll!
       If your home is anything like
ours there's a sort of waiting war to
see who will replace a roll that's
running out. How long can we
extend the life of that rapidly
decreasing supply?
       We do have an agreement on
proper installation! Our roll feeds
from the top front in our dispenser.
       I suspect, at one time or another,
all of you will be absorbing.....I mean
observing this holiday sometime
during the day!
       Hope you've got a full roll and
that all your NEWS is good!
