“They can’t keep doing that. When the hamburger is 2” wide, you’ll know there’s something wrong.”

How about toilet paper? Some brands seen like they are down to about 2” plus see through thin.

The day may be coming soon when the petroleum companies switch from gallons at the pump to liters.

yes, if they switch to liters, people might think the price of gas went down.

In round numbers, $4 per gallon would be about $1 per liter.

Who knows, as prices continue to rise, they may switch to the price per liter just to disguise how high prices are going.

When we remodeled the house 20 years ago, I made sure the bathroom cabinets fit toilet paper roll storage to a tee. Today, there is significant wasted space between the shelve heights and width, too.

Notice, too, the cardboard roll is getting larger so it needs less paper to look like the same amount.

Angel Soft doesn’t know the definition of soft anymore. Might as well use mulched prickly Christmas trees.
