TACKY, TACKY
I read an article a few weeks back in The Charlotte Observer that won't get out of my head. The article described the Rock Hill Women's Club fundraiser. I have no objection to the fundraiser. What I can't get out of my head is how they raised the money. Toilets painted pink with some decoration that were left on front lawns. The recipients of these toilets paid a "ransom" to have them removed. The local news had a feature of two women lugging a pink toilet to a lawn and then running to their mini van for the getaway. When my son in Atlanta was a high school junior, I had a toilet left on my front porch. There was no ransom. My son's high school friends delivered it as a joke on my son. Notice I have said high school friends left it for my high school son. So to get this out of my head, I need to say - TACKY,TACKY,TACKY,TACKY,TACKY,TACKY,TACKY! Thank you, I feel so much better. Who ever thought of the toilet fundraiser needs to be on the refreshment committee.

Looks like they've had to resort to desperate measures since I've moved out of the area and am no longer able to participate in the spring sale. Poor dears, having to lug those toilets around...
