Purple Rain?

Not in my gym!

Every Tuesday and Thursday night I participate in a Lift class at my local community center. I love it, I get excersize, to look and feel better, to get out of the house, and to be around adults other than co-workers. (No offense to said co-workers, but you know what I mean!) Last night as I was setting up my equipment for class, one of the other women said, "Come here, one of the sprinklers went off in the gym!". (Apparently someone hit the sprinkler head with a basketball.) I figured, hey, it's a sprinkler, no big deal, right? So I didn't hurry, I finished what I was doing, and then I wandered out to look down into the gym. I was a little shocked.



I assumed that a sprinkler would spray water, right? (I should have known better than to assume... the saying holds true to me every time!) Clean, clear water. Well, this crap was like black oil, or liquified rubber tires. (It stank just like burnt tires too BTW.) Of course I had to snap a picture to preserve this memory.

Okay, I pulled a Natali.

As soon as I saw this sign, I thought of my friend Natali. No, not because of the sign itself, but because she is always posting blogs of random, strange, or just plain funny things she sees along her wanderings. I actually thought of this post in particular.

I found this sign hanging in the bathroom of the office building next door to mine yesterday. (Our buildings are connected by a catwalk, so I'm over there quite a bit.) Sadly, I did not cary my phone with me at the time, so I actually returned to that bathroom today just to get this picture.
(Please forgive the blurriness; I still have not mastered the camera on my phone, and it was typed in very strange old-school-robot-like font anyway.)

bathroom sign
It reads... "Do not dipose of sanitary napkins, towels, pantyhose, etc. in toilet stools."

Now to me this means either one of two things...
1) that someone is seriously confused on exactly what pantyhose are used for, or
2) that someone at one time has actually tried to flush pantyhose down the toilet

Unfortunately scenario number 2 seems more likely to me...
