I probably shouldn't, but I can't resist this story

In Mexico, we were visiting our housekeeper to take some gifts to her little boy for x-max. After having a few beers, I felt the need to use the potty. Well, I certainly didn't expect porcelain, and I asked her to use her restroom and she got this horrid look on her face. I told her not to worry, I knew what to expect.

So I grabbed some Kleenex from my purse and followed her out back to where they had their 'restroom.'

There was 3 walls, about 5 feet high, with a shower curtain covering the 'door.'

I walked in and ascertained which side was the pooh side and which side was the side I needed (this is important when wearing sandals ).

She stood outside to be sure her brothers didn't walk in by accident.

As I was almost done, a pig poked his nose thru the curtain and I found myself nose to nose with a pig

And she was worried about her brothers

It was definitely a Kodak moment, thank God hubby wasn't close by

Why what? Why do I find it humorous? Because if it closes at midnight on Saturday, yet is open 24 hours on Sunday.... it's closed for one minute. You know... technically. If you believe the sign. Ahem. See, told ya I'd be the only one who thought it was funny.

I will have to find this picture, someone took a picture of an old sign on the Lee, Prentiss border near Baldwyn it says Prentiss is a dry county, the picture was taken during a thunderstorm, the sign is all wet, it was pretty funny....
