    Do not attempt to feed a 4X4 oak block into a silage blower.

    It does not work as a wood chipper. It will blow most of the block up a 60 foot silo and shoot it across to the other side.

    It will break the shear bolt as it is engineered to do, but it will also bend 3 out of the 6 blades and bring it to a stop pretty fast.

    Romans did but used a common sponge and bucket for all . but at least they tried [:D]

    The antecedents of toilet paper left much to be desired in terms of comfort. Man used his hand, sticks, stones, leaves, dry bones, hay, and shells in attempts to clean himself. According to the Greek playwright Aristophanes, the rich used leeks to wipe themselves while medieval monks used pieces of pottery and old cloth. Common ancient Romans used a sponge on the end of a stick soaked in brine while the wealthy used wool and rosewater. It is worthwhile to note that the sponge on a stick soaked in vinegar that Jesus Christ received from the Romans during His crucifixion added greater insult and mockery to His name than is commonly known in Christian circles and contemporary culture. [1]

    In the Arab world and India, one's left hand was reserved for wiping while he used his right hand for eating. Thus, many cultures consider it an insult to pass someone food with the left hand. Islamic tradition dictates that one should clean up with stones or pieces of earth, by rinsing with water, and drying with a cloth. [2]

    Seventeenth century middle-class Frenchmen used un-spun hemp while the ladies at Louis XIV's court used wool and lace. People also began using a curved stick and spawned the saying, "to get hold of the wrong end of the stick."[3] During the Enlightenment, European royalty used silk strips and soft goose feathers to wipe themselves.[4]

    Colonial American outhouses contained a box of red and white corn cobs. One started wiping with the red, used a white one to see if he needed to continue, and reverted to the red one if needed.[5]

    By the 1700's, daily news journals, book pages, personal letters, and even the Sears catalog became popular alternatives to older wiping technologies in America and Europe

    I have heard advice for older folks or "H" suffers generally to use a hand held shower sprayer on a hose. Learned this when my mother, an RN, told me to go to the hardware store and buy one, then to install it in the Grandparents walk-in shower.

    another substitute for T.P. is the bark from Paper Bark Eucalyptus
    it is softer than CHARMAN TP and as a side benefit is the red powder between layers that I think is a kin of Ghost peppers so it will CAUTERIZE HEMORRHOIDS at the same time

    A little KY Jelly on the toilet paper makes life so much easier. I worked for the government for many years and the toilet paper they bought from the low bidders was like 00 sandpaper. After a couple of wipes you were ready to prime and paint!! [:0]
