Today my oak toilet seat split in half! Another one of those neverending minor disasters! Fortunately, since I am Equipped, I had a spare toilet seat on the commode in the garage. The commode is a spare “toilet” as you never know what will break or plug up next, & the toilet is the most important thing in the house.

I have two bathrooms, so in computer speak I have dual redundant load balanced commode's with a camping potty in the garage as a DR system <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

The one thing that my Dad stored extra of was toilet paper. No dual redundancy of seats, although when my Grandma moved in a couple of years before Mom and Dad passed, they put in a second bathroom...

I swear my wife and I didn't have to buy TP for three or four months after Dad was gone.

His fear was that the three of us in the house would all be struck with severe diarrhea at the same time and wouldn't be able to make it the four blocks to the grocery store to get more! <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Is the toilet the most important thing in the house or would it be THE SEAT!? According to the females in my house it's the SEAT! Just leave it up one time...
