Remember in the movie "Smokey and the Bandit" Sherrif Buford T. Pusser, Texas Ranger, left the bathroom and was dragging a long roll behind him. Of course it got caught in his aaaaaaa belt, shall we say. If the loose end was in to the wall he wouldn't gotten caught and looked stupid. I stand by my earlier judgement. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't you know that your not supposed to put a new roll on the dispenser? No! Your supposed to keep the empty roll on, and put the new roll on the counter next to the sink, or on the side of the tub. -- "See you all again next week on the muppet show!" - Kermit the frog %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Ray E.
