Holly throws herself under the alternative fuel bus

Blog Nosh Magazine Politics
Originally Published on June Cleaver Nirvana

Holly has been doing a lot of thinking. Holly has been doing extensive
investigating. Holly finds that the best solution to her problem may be
installing one of these:

Holly has decided that a porta-potty, johnnie-on-the-spot, porta-john may be her only option.

She has decided that this is the location for her new purchase:

Why would Holly who lives in a lovely suburban neighborhood in a house that could (but doesn’t) have a white picket fence with complete indoor plumbing choose to install a porta-potty, johnnie-on-the-spot, porta-john?

It
might have something to do with the plunger that is permanently
attached to Holly’s left arm. Holly’s left arm is tired of plunging.
Holly has noticed that she is starting to choose outfits in the morning
based on whether they match the plunger attached permanently to her
left arm.

Holly is wearing green hoping that her green-wearing
karma will overcome her low-flow toilet hating soul. Holly’s low-flow
toilet hating soul is dark, very dark. Holly’s low-flow toilet hating
soul is deep, very deep. Holly’s low-flow toilet hating soul is
attached to a body sporting a plunger as a permanent fixture.

Holly’s low-flow toilets seem to have something against the act of flushing.

Hey low-flow toilets…why are you so anti-flush?

Holly
also wonders what is the point of low-flow toilets if she has to
attempt flushing them three kazillion times with intermittent plunging.
Ironically Coincidentally, that is the exact same
decibel (three kazillion) Holly’s voice hits when she hears, “Mommy!
The toilet isn’t working!”

So, until Al Gore dedicates his life
to plunging Holly’s low-flow toilets or determines that suitable alternatives in the
United States of Low-Flow Toilets (US of LF T) are legal, Holly is planning this drastic action.

Holly will no longer allow people to use the INDOOR toilets. Holly will lead them to the OUTDOOR toilet which never needs plunging despite the level of crap.

Holly can only hope
that the proximity to the patio of the new porta-potty,
johnny-on-the-spot, porta-john could encourage its use by a certain
Holly’s dog…
