August,

 DS>   Years ago, the late Red Skelton noted "At the gas
 DS>   stations, the cash box is in the open, but they lock
 DS>   the restrooms". 

 AA> Yeah... sounds hilarious at first. But when you think about
 AA> it, it makes sense.  An employee can keep an eye on the cash
 AA> register. But the station washrooms are often out of sight.

  Plus, a lot of young people make them "their love nests". :P

 AA> I enjoyed most the Red Skelton shows when the TV signal was
 AA> good.  That sure was a l-o-n-g time ago!

  The only "dirty word" I ever heard him use was the same one
that Clark Gable used in "Gone With The Wind" over 80 years ago.
He fought long and hard with the Motion Picture Association Of
America, as they wouldn't let him say "Damn"...and I think he
threatened to quit the movie.

  Now, that's so commonplace, it's pathetic.

Daryl
