Toilet seat cover on an airplane...sm

Posted By: Lolabug on 2009-05-21
In Reply to: Not me, but I once saw someone.... - MT1

My mom and I were flying back from Las Vegas. We were completely "rummy" tired and absolutely everything was hilarious to us. I think this would have been funny anyway though:

There was an older gentleman on the plane and he was one of those who was always getting up and down and up and down (overactive bladder?). Well, when he walked onto the plane, we were all getting our bags put into the overhead storage and getting settled in our seats. He turned around to put his bag away and my mom and I noticed that he had a toilet seat cover hanging out of the back of his pants. He had his wife with him who was elderly also, but she didn't say anything to him. She had to have seen it because of all the getting up and down that he did. Neither my mom or I had the guts to tell him and I guess that we had a pretty spineless group of people on the flight because NOBODY told him. After we landed he walked through the terminal to get his bags with the flippin toilet seat cover STILL hanging out of the back of his drawers!!! I can only imagine his reaction when he figured out that he had had this thing stuck to the back of him for like four hours (or more) and didn't know it!!! Too funny. My mom and I still roll with laughter every time we talk about it.

um... worse is the no toilet seat covers!
what in the world???? i never even knew they DIDN'T exist until i moved to the east from the west, and they are not in more than HALF the public restrooms ive gone in... (i try to avoid these places but sometimes its impossible)...
but really that is like NEWs to me that they are no seat covers.... im assuming it is normal to everyone here that is local though?

TOO FUNNY about the hooks though... i feel the same way and haven't ever put my purse on the ground... usually they have somewhere to place it, even if its on top of the TP holder!
Worse yet - no door OR toilet seat ! - sm

I was warned about no toilet paper on a trip I took out of the country a few years ago.  I was even told there would be older ladies sitting at a table in front of the bathroom who would give you 3 squares of paper for a tip prior to entering the bathroom.  I was not warned about lack of seats and sometimes lack of doors to the stalls and no lock on the bathroom exiting door!  I even stayed in what was their version of a 4 star hotel and on check-in had to ask for a roll of tissue (which was billed extra!).  That was quite an experience! 


Airplane

He's right. They plug the toilet. sm
Used to clean house many moons ago for a lady who used them all the time. Cost her a fortune to clear the piping out.
I agree - the show is in the toilet. sm
I, too, have watched since the start and the writing has gone downhill. I guess Ray is off the show and Luka may be killed in a plane crash (I think?). Why did they mention the hightened terror alert at the beginning of the show? Did you read somewhere that Luka wil only be in a handful of episodes next year? Is Neela going to be paralyzed from the waist down after having people step on her? I agree that the show should be canceled. There are no stories left to tell and no solid characters.
I use A LOT more than 2 squares of toilet paper. LOL

1 In 5 Adults Uses Pool As Toilet
Officials: Swallowing Urine-Contaminated Water Isn't Harmful

PHOENIX -- A new study by the Water Quality and Health Council found that nearly one in five adults admits to urinating in a swimming pool instead of using the toilet.

Eight in 10 adults are convinced their fellow swimmers are guilty of such a crime, the study said.

Nevertheless, health officials insist that swimming in and even swallowing urine-contaminated water isn't harmful to someone's health.

"Urine in itself has been purified through a whole variety of bodily processes so that it's removed a lot of the contaminants in it," said Don Herrington from the Arizona Health Department.

Swimmers should be more concerned about swallowing parasites than swallowing urine, officials said.

Last summer, dozens of swimmers in the Phoenix area got sick from pool water, forcing the closure of all 29 Phoenix city pools.

The parasite which caused the illnesses, Cryptosporidium, comes from diarrhea.

Phoenix Parks and Recreation spokeswoman Amy Blakeney urged sick swimmers to stay out of the pool.

"People who are sick need to stay home and remain at home for 14 days after they're symptom-free, especially if they have diarrhea," Blakeney said.

Though city pools electronically monitor chlorine levels, the city of Phoenix has begun to require swimmers to shower before they jump in the pool as an extra precaution.

"Taking a shower allows those materials to rinse off and go down as sewage, and then gets a clean body into the pool water, which is what we all want," Blakeney said.

No, he has a car seat
I ordered from "in the company of dogs" catalog.  He loves it. it sits up high enough that he can look out the window. I love him!  Everyone thinks he is sooo cute.  I thank GOd everyday for him every day. He makes me laugh. Did you hear, laughter is good medicine!

Mine looks just like the one in 3rd seat
my boy came with some people from California, ended up with us, his name is Buddy, we call him Boo, sometimes we call him Jack (from Nightmare before Xmas). He's a white lab, we love him.
The cat happened Monday. Toilet trauma was Wednesday.
I think I'm fine...just accident prone this week.
Teacher forces 3rd grader to unclog toilet

ST. GABRIEL, La. — Saint Gabriel police have arrested a third-grade schoolteacher and booked her with cruelty to a juvenile.


The parents of a student at East Iberville School filed a complaint against 46-year-old Julie Landry of Plaquemine, accusing her of forcing their son to unclog a restroom toilet with his hands May 7th.


Landry has been placed on leave with pay.


Landry is a first-year teacher, participating in an alternative certification program.


the last half of the 4th quarter had you on the edge of your seat...sm

lotsa eatin', sreamin' and jumpin' in our house with all the men who've played high school, college and semi-pro...Both teams did a tremendous job, and it was a great rivalry to begin with.

Love the doggie car-seat idea - you are a good mommy :)
I'm so sorry about your sister's dogs.
I had a BIL who used to turn his seat and stare at people and call them names
We're talking about "gender-specific names", and not the nice names either.

Had a grandmother who would wait for overweight people to walk by and then call them "fatty" once they were within hearing distance.

That was about 5 and 6 years ago and we never went out to eat with either of them again. Actually we did but I warned them if they made one mention of calling people names loud enough to ensure the others would hear I would get up and walk out. Needless to say my MIL didn't like that I "had the nerve" to say that to them. I told her it's better than being beat up because little brother couldn't keep his mouth shut and not call people the "f" or "l" word.
My cocker spaniel rides in the back seat and gets in front when we stop (sm)
In her mind this usually relates to getting a small dish of ice cream from the Dairy B or a chance to get out and go visit friends, i.e. her "grandma" and her groomer.

I have always made her ride in the back because I am afraid she will start moving around and get near the foot pedals and cause a wreck.

Certainly will not let her ride in the front when the vehicle is moving after this.
if you cover it, it will be much less dry!! *S*

HOmeowners may not cover

Sometimes if it is a motorized vehicle it will not be covered under homeowners insurance since you are supposed to have insurance on those independently.  Most of the time boats, motorcycles, scooters, cars are not covered but each policy is different but don't be surprisied if they are not.   Usually it is the home and contents.  Again, I feel for you but if you did not want them stored at your home then your husband should have followed your BIL home to take them off the trailer and see that they are stored in a safe place.  Especially since you know them and describe them as such and they have already had a loss.  But I guess this is a situation in which everyone learns a question, an expensive lesson but a lesson.  Am not sure if you would even win in a court of law as it was not an intentional act and you did not carry insurance on it..  Also with regards to their home owners it might not be covered as it is not theirs.  When my niece was borrowing a computer from me and they had water damage because the computer was mine and not theirs  it was not covered.   Good luck but to me this looks like a no win situation for anyone.


 


I believe the tip goes to the franchise to cover --sm
the amount of gas prices, etc. I would continue tipping the driver the same amount, if I were you, and no, I would not tip any higher amount on Superbowl Sunday...it is not a holiday. lol.
If it is like my bank they will cover you up to $500 -sm
and you have 3 days to payback the bank, which you already did. You did not have anything bounce, so no one will have notices saying not to accept your checks. The bank will be charging you though for their service of covering for you, so you may need to put in another $100 or so to cover that before Friday, check with the bank. You can probably manage your account on-line, check into it, great way to make sure you don't over draw yourself. I try to keep $1000 in the savings account for such emergencies, also with my bank they will automatically transfer the money in from savings to checking if I do overdraft for no charge since I have the money there.

I cover mine at 350 and put
a teaspoon of olive oil on the bottom of the pan first.  I happen to use a clear glass or ceramic dish with a tight cover.  It seems they turn out more moist with that type of dish.  I know you don't want to add anything, but I like to sprinkle a dash of salt and pepper on mine and put some finely sliced garlic (not much, a small clove) in the olive oil.  That way the flavor from the garlic circulates around the dish and adds a hint of flavor, but doesn't overwhelm it.  I can't tell you how long to cook it, but I can always tell mine is done just by the way it looks.  It does shrink a good bit.
Did insurance cover this or how much?

Keyboard cover?
Does anybody use a cover on their keyboard (while working).  I dumped tea all over mine the other day, and had to buy a new one.  I always wear the letters off the keys within weeks, and thought maybe a cover would help.  TIA
Implants they do not cover any of the
cost as it is considered cosmetic. The denture they will pay a portion but not much sorry to say!!
I doubt homeowners would cover this, but
to do?  How would the carpet store fix this?  Just wondering....
She's using her tail to cover the delicate
parts, hehehe. That's more than my dogs do, course they have a lot more fur-clothing on.

A "fee" to cover their time.
It's a fee for the time they took calling the police and looking at video tapes. The probation officer said that stores rarely do it but that they can. I guess we're just extra special.

We go before a special youth council next week....and revisit with his doctor about the Respirdal and the hair pulling, etc...
You can never judge a book by its cover, can you? sm
Simply amazing.  Gave me goose bumps.  Her voice is pure joy.  Love it every time I hear it!!!
Obviously didn't cover many details in a post.
I am not emotionally selfish. Heavens. And I am a Believer, while they are not. I am an animal lover, not above humans. But when I have gotten together with my family in the past, they have chosen those visits to ridicule my family and our love of animals - family get-togethers were nothing more than lets bash the youngest over her love for her animals. Its a bigger picture than I am comfortable to explain here - basically even covers the hunting versus anti-hunting personalities, etc. I have never ever pushed my philosophy on them - its always been vice versa. As an animal lover, I can sense disdain when I am around others who are not as close as family, but who believe animals are worthless - the old dog belongs outside in a dog house philosophy, or the only good cat is a dead one. We can discern these types and I would certainly rather not spend my time in their presence. While you are feeling the need to explain that you don't disapprove of your mother and her choices, your whole theme has honestly been one of disapproval of her and her choices. You don't need to speak those words to her. She can discern your real feelings, but perhaps you are not discerning your mother's. Just a thought from one Biblical Christian to another.
Dr. Phil DID cover this very topic a few months ago...
and there was a guy who supposedly went to Africa and needed all this money to eat, get out of prison, get home to see this woman he was chatting with and told he loved so much.  She fell for the whole thing until Dr. Phil exposed the whole story on his show and had other women there who had also fallen for this guy and sent him money.  I don't know if you can get a DVD of the show or not, but it might be worth it to try. 
Did insurance cover prophylactic mastectomies? (NM)

they always request more to cover what others don't send - plus what their budget won't buy -

Accounting for time doesn't cover the bases
Trust me on this one. I just found out last spring (May 07) that my husband had been cheating on me. We were gone to our lake cabin and when we arrived home I checked the caller ID (as I always do). I seen a name on there and casually said, "who is this?" thinking it was one of the kid's friends. My husband proceeded to go out to his shop but I knew something was off. He called MD over to the shop to tell me that this was the same lady that had called his boss and tried to cause problems with them. "Anyway, when would I have time to have an affair. I am never late to come home and I never go to work early, etc." So, I believed him. Mind you, I had caught him talking to a lady on the cell phone a year prior and he told me they were just work-related "friends." He says he stopped that right after I found out.

Well, come to find out that evening (when we got home from our cabin) he did have an affair with this woman. He admitted it to me that night because he couldn't take the guilt any longer. He was screwing around with her over their noon hours and on the occasional nights he didn't come home right after work. He wasn't all the late though and he always fed me a line of something and I believed him so him coming home 15-20 minutes late once in a blue moon was no big deal to me.

Now, before you all jump down my throat on my stupidity for staying with him. I have invested 15 years of my life with this many and we are still together. Probably not such a great move but we are making it work. Our life is actually better than it has been in 15 years because we are way more open about things.

I have no advice for the sex line calls. I just wanted to expres the fact that accounting for their time doesn't mean jack!
time is overdue....for them to quietly disappear...under cover of darkness.
