(according to Dateline, or one of those other "news" shoes) Ever since food sanitation certification (Meleah, add that to the list of hard phrases to say while drunk) class and caught TYPHOID, I am fanatical about the bathroom. I even carry disposable seat covers. Yep, Typhoid Mary, that's me. I got it from swimming in the Jersey Shore where Medical waste washed up a week later. Coincedence?! I think not Sherlock!! Lucky to be alive. As for you, keep your bird-flu-infested-nice-to-know-you-self on the West Coast.

There actually is a verse that says : "This is the way we wash our hands, wash our hands...on a cold and frosty morning."

Except we sing 'twinkle twinkle little star' while washing our hands. And unlike other people- I definitely love this memo.

The trick is this: when you are done, first pull the paper town knob to release some towels, THEN wash your hands well, THEN grab the towel, THEN use the towel to dry your hands, shut off the faucet (if it's not automatic) and open the door. Discard paper towel at your desk.<BR/><BR/>I never used to be that crazy until I realize how many gross-ass people out there don't wash their hands and then touch the faucet and handle.
