TP Race 2020

THE RACE HAS BEGUN TO FREE ENSLAVED TOILET PAPER.

I have been doing some research on toilet (TP) paper, and discovered that TP was first discovered in the United States approximately 1859. The gentleman that first discovered it package it as flat sheets in a box, much like facial tissues today. In fact, he was sooooo proud, he had his name printed on every sheet. Later in the 1890's brothers by the name of Scott, produced TP on a roll, what you see today. Don't go an get all uppity you U.S. citizens, the Chinese were using it in the 9th century AD.

I am still trying to figure out how there was a run on toilet paper when the coronavirus is causing respiratory issues. I do know that because of the run for toilet paper has gotten out of hand, with people hoarding TP, or trying to scalp it for silly prices. Scalping tickets at a concert is child's play.

One thought is that some of the people have their heads where they don't belong, and believe they need the TP to wipe the nose after they cough.

Something I know for sure is that lawyers are struggling too; they have nothing to write their contracts on.

Today Carol and I entered the TP race of 2020. We drove 56 miles round trip, spending $43.00 for a 4 roll pack...plus a few other items. The toilet paper itself only cost $4.97, and are proud owners of this TP. Carol found a 4 pack on Amazon for $14.00, and an additional $42.00 for priority shipping, which would have been received in two to three weeks from purchase. Regular delivery time would have been sometime between early May and mid-June.

Anyway, I thank God that Carol and I are doing ok here in Livingston TX. Keep smiling, and remember that God is in control.
