NOTE: In defense of the comment given by the police officer in this article, I thought it necessary to provide the origin of the word, Crap, Crappy, etc. Thomas Crapper (baptised 28 September 1836; died 27 January 1910) was an English plumber and businessman. He founded Thomas Crapper & Co in London, a plumbing equipment company. Crapper held nine patents, three of them for water closet improvements such as the floating ballcock. He improved the S-bend plumbing trap in 1880 by inventing the U-bend. The firm's lavatorial equipment was manufactured at premises in nearby Marlborough Road (now Draycott Avenue). The company owned the world's first bath, toilet and sink showroom in King's Road. Crapper was noted for the quality of his products and received several royal warrants. There, I feel better now as I didn’t want my post to get deleted…..  |

Well Hekler, I’ve been “ stuck “ in traffic before when I lived in California. Needless to say, a porta potty pileup would have been a welcome sight. |

Hey Larry  "L.D." here: It amazes me how "bad a rap" portable toilets get. I never use them, myself, (I mean, I'm a dog. Duh) but the things definitely serve a purpose. I have actually spent time just watching "the lone" portable toilet at the boat ramp. Best time is on a weekend, when there are dozens of boaters all bloated with beverages and rich picnic food. I've actually seen humans race to see who could get to the toilet, first. Only to find the thing occupied. It's amusing to watch modest humans deal with an urgent need to defecate. Kronk---I wish I would have gotten here sooner. "L.D."---Why's that? kronk---I would have deleted you. "L.D."---Well, you might've been here sooner if you hadn't been in the shed, "licking the slime of a gaff-topsail." kronk---Ugh!  |

...LD... I really didn't want to ask the question but I'm sure many other readers are also wondering Why exactly had you "spent time just watching "the lone" portable toilet at the boat ramp."? Slow news day? |

...I see that you have hedged around your true motive and seem unwilling to give your real intentions. I'm calling Fox News for an update. |

...Fox News has ALL the answers when this kind of question arises. The moral of this story is "Trust the Pros". |

Thanks for making my slow news day more full filling Hekler. I knew this article would bring you out of hiding long enough to share your pearls of wisdom. |

Hekler "L.D." here: After we raise the crab pots and deliver the catch, kronk likes to go back to the boat launch, toss his sombrero down and try to get people to give him money for reciting that swill that he try's to pass off as poetry. Watching desperate people try to make it to the porta potty, before having "an accident," is infinitely more interesting. kronk---The world is overrun with critics! "L.D."---hehehe |

...LD...do you really think it appropriate to call worldwide attention to Kronk's swill? I mean, if he described what was in some of the meals that he fed you, would you be okay with that kind of exposure? I'm going to take your advice and set up camp near an outhouse, camera on tripod with huge lens pointed straight at it and see if this creates any kind of negative effect. Film at 11 |

Hekler It just amazes me that many of the "weekend pleasure boaters" will not heed the call of nature until they get back to civilization (or in this case, a smelly porta potty.) I mean, just hold the boat up against the shoreline, disembark, move inland a few yards, (away from prying eyes) drop the pants, relax and "let fly." In my humble opinion, that's better than being all gassed up and miserable, while others are having fun. "L.D."---I agree, totally. Really, what's the worst thing that could happen; poison ivy, thorns, blood thirsty mosquitoes and horseflies, poisonous snakes, alligators? kronk---Ugh! You're not helping. Anything else? "L.D."---Well, anything at all could be out there in the boonies. Grazing Hippopotami, man eating cannibals, escapees from the insane asylum, African killer bees.. kronk---Ugh! |

Oh, and let's not forget the aforementioned, "perverted Bigfoot." kronk---Nobody said the Bigfoot" was perverted. "L.D."---I just threw that in "for effect." I mean, a "Bigfoot" is bad enough, but a "Perve Bigfoot." Man, we should make a movie! kronk---You really should have gone to "Sunday school." "L.D."---That always interfered with "The Wonderful World of Disney." kronk---Ugh! |
