Cruel Joke

Picture this: Three girls stuck in Labor Day traffic traveling from The Gulf back to Birmingham. Car moving at an average of 30 mile per hour in a 70 mile per hour speed limit. The inevitable happens - - all three of us made of the mistake of renting one too many diet cokes and now had to turn them in. We finally arrive to Greenville where every filling station was equally as packed as the Interstate. We find ourselves about 10 ladies deep in the bathroom line (of course, that's 10 persons more than the men's line). We're standing there, and all you can hear is a steady stream. It sounded like the world's longest urination...and it only made me have to go to the bathroom worse. And as it kept going, I kept thinking how unusual until I saw that some Jack-Ass had decided to spruce up the bathroom line by placing a FOUNTAIN in the hall by the restrooms. Are you joking? Either the manager of the Shell in Greenville is either incredibly clever, or devastatingly dumb.
