There is a pink colored liquid soap that has been used in public restrooms as long as I can remember, and I can only wonder why it was adopted in the first place, and especially why it’s commonly used to this day. I went directly from shooting at the range to a favorite Mexican restaurant today, and obviously needed to wash my hands before diving into the chips and salsa. But, sure enough, it’s one of those places that evidently feels it’s not proper restroom soap unless it’s that pink stuff. Despite rinsing my hands as much as I could, I’m still smelling that sh…tuff an hour and a half later, and that’s with my hands on the keyboard. Washing with other soap at home helped, but didn’t kill that stench entirely. Or am I somehow just unusually sensitive to that odor? ► 6.0/94.0 “To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead.” — Thomas Paine | ||

Be glad there was soap! I've been in places where the soap dispenser is empty or no paper towels. On interstate driving I plan my stops on Loves gas stations or Buccee's if I'm in the area where there is one. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||

When I was in elementary school it was popular to pee in the soap dispensers. I haven't used restroom soap since unless I'm damn sure the container is tamper proof. "The people hate the lizards and the lizards rule the people." "Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy." "I did," said Ford, "it is." "So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?" "It honestly doesn't occur to them. They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates the government they want." "You mean they actually vote for the lizards." "Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course." "But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?" "Because if they didn't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard might get in." | |||

simple solution is to bring a bar of soap that removes lead from your hands. Use cold water as well. | |||

Korea puts it on a stick, you know, in case you wanted it even less appealing.  10 years to retirement! Just waiting! | |||
