Say, what?

A CYNICAL LOOK AT THE DAILY GRIND

WHO'S THAT BEHIND THE MIRROR?

Are men dirtier than women?

At least their hands are, according to The Soap and Detergent Association.


When it comes to hand-washing hygiene, the association found (by secretly spying on people in public restrooms) that 33 percent of men don't bother to wash their hands after using the bathroom compared to 12 percent of women.

Based on observations last month of more than 6,000 people in four big cities - Atlanta, New York, Chicago and San Francisco - the results of the stakeouts were revealed at a meeting of infectious-disease scientists yesterday.

Ya gotta hate dirty spies. I guess Big Mother (with eyes in the back of her head) really is watching.

BTW men, the bottom of women's pocketbooks are even dirtier.

PRESS 4 FOR NEVERMORE

I was going to talk about how I hate new towels that leave little lint balls all over your body when you dry off. But how much can you say about that, except ... "WASH THEM FIRST, YOU (BUY-CHEAP-TOWELS) IDIOT!"

So instead, I feel like going on a tirade about ... being a white American (with colored lint balls stuck to my body).

A study by Citizen Action of New York says Manhattan juries are too white. Blacks, Asians and Hispanics are severely under-represented in jury pools there.

Three out of four people who (and here's the operative phrase) "show up" for jury duty are white, even though they only represent half of the population.

Hum. Well, hopefully those who show up can speak English.
