Big Bore has made a special request that I post his favorite privy from the Elk Falls Outhouse Festival competition, so here it is: "Gone to the Dogs." This is sort of a repeat version from last year's entry, but it's new to him since he didn't attend the austere affair in 2010. No bones about it, though, the idea is cute (see the fire hydrant inside?) According to the posted notice on the privy, Officer Cujo conducts Pee Patrol duties and makes sure all dogs in town have a private, comfortable place to do their own doo-ties. I think next year the cats of Elk Falls need to demand equal billing with some sort of litter-infested cat house.
Library Lady and I have already started a human movement to enter our own privy, titled "Wipe Out Illiteracy!" I've spoken with the privy festival head honcho, and he's going to try to get us a little shack to decorate. It's going to have to be a two-holer, for Volume #1 and Volume #2. I have appointed LL to be the prop person, so she has a whole year now to come up with "Objets d' Art." I'm thinking lots of toilet paper and books and one of those framed "Quite, Please!" signs. A year from now, we're going to be famous!! Take a bite out of THAT, Officer Cujo!!!

how about substituting some magazines for toilet paper? and you have to do something with a card catalog (i miss those)
Our library has some really neat end tables in the reading room that are old card catalog drawers...or at least look like them. Glass on the top. Really nice...and very heavy. --I think a Sears catalog would work well. At least that's what Mom says they used to use. Yikes!
