How long do we men spend on the commode?

Long enough to do email, look at the forum, answer the forum, look at some internet news, search eBay motors for parts, check out other car sites then we take a ------.

At least that's what Diane tells me.

Back in college, one of my friends and fraternity brothers told us a true story about his family. John, grew up here in the suburbs of Philadelphia. His father, a sucessful business owner (and Porsche owner), was the only one home in the new house he had built (this was in the pre-cordless phone era), when PA Bell, came to install phones. He instructed the tech to install phones in all of the bathrooms, not one phone was installed in any bedroom, family room or kitchen. His reasoning was that first, when you are on the throne, and the phone rings, if the phone isn't there, you will miss the call, second, when you are on the throne, what else can you get done, it is a perfect time to make phone calls.

I spent the night at John's parents house durning a pledge trip. His father at the time had a white 911 cab. Sunday morning, John took us out for a little ride in it. It was the first time I had the pleasure to be driven in a Porsche.

The Throne, is the only place in our house that we can be assured that no one will want to disturb us. It is also the place we can be international. Some one once told me most of the time we are Americans, but when you go into the bathroom European. (Tony, I hope your son likes that one)
