does it make a sound? | “If a tree falls in a forest … ” Centuries ago, a philosopher asked, “Since sound does not exist without our hearing of it, sound does not exist if we do not hear it.” Columbia’s citizens tuned into last night’s council meeting were faced with that same debate.

We didn’t need the letter.
Didn’t need the letter? Your TP hoard must be larger than mine.
Plan on using the letter as TP.

Besides, are you one of those pampered ones who never knew the joy of a winter visit to an outhouse? Pre-Charmin days.
No, I am not one of those pampered ones who never knew the joy of a winter visit to an outhouse. In the past I have spent numerous times in the Maine woods using an outhouse.
