not so good.

Signs that the good day you thought you were having might not have been so good after all:

1. A Porta-Potty blows over and lands on your car.

When I returned to my car after the completion of a school board meeting I was covering tonight, this is what I found.

Yes. That’s my car.

It’s not as bad as it looks. Johnny-On-The-Spot was apparently empty. A little plastic rubbed off on the hood — a scuff that can be buffed off pretty easily — so it appears that damage was superficial.

But. What kind of karmic message is that? What the hell did I do? Is there someone I should apologize to? I’d be happy to — because the last thing I need is to be followed around by an endless army of flying Porta-Johns.

  3. OK, I’m honestly laughing WITH you on this one.

    I have a portajohn company as a client.

    Not exactly dinner conversation. :)

  4. Suck it up, weenie. Sam K. dropped his car keys INTO a port-a-potty last Saturday. Had to fish them out with a coat hanger and salad tongs.

    Swear to God.

  7. Spoon/Ethel: That’s not really what I had in mind when I took the name…

    Mr. Burns: Much worse, yes, but Sammy ignored one of the primary rules of Porta-Potty usage: Secure all loose objects before entering.

    Mike: You’re welcome to it.

  8. Norm and John here;

    We were debating on telling you this earlier tonight at the PodCamp meet-up but we didn’t want to embarrass you further.

    While on a quest for Stroh 80 for the StromHuelsman Podcast, we ran across a couple of hoodlums overturning Porta-Johns. John, being outraged, hunted down the delinquents and cornered them for questioning. Being out of our jurisdiction, and also being that we are not actually law enforcement officers, we decided the proper punishment would be to lock one of them in a potty and overturn it.

    It turned out that we were the aforementioned hoodlums, and had already found and consumed the Stroh 80. John felt especially bad about this, because he had to ride home in the back of the truck on account of the smell.

    So, yeah, sorry.
