Today Is World Toilet Day

Typical toilet

I am not making this up. Actually, this is serious. As you may be thinking about funny things to say about this topic, it's really serious.

You see, there are 2.6 billion people in the world who do not have access to a toilet. Aside from the obvious inconvenience, the resulting sanitation problem is responsible for nearly 1.8 million deaths annually.

The World Toilet Organization (again, I'm not kidding) is concerned and they want you to know about this mess. They have a web site, click here.

So, the next time you use the can, take a moment to think of the less fortunate who literally do not have a pot to piss in!
