Duck a la Commode

Cleaning up:

No more crispy duck served at toilets

Food stalls attached to Beijing's public toilets will be removed in good time for next year's Olympics, state media said Saturday.

Notoriously polluted Beijing is cleaning up its act before it hosts the Olympics. It has also announced crackdowns on spitting and smelly taxis.

Wait... no food in the restroom, no smelly taxis, and I can't even spit? Hmph! Not hardly worth going then, is it?

Quoting from the article: "The city authorities also plan to publish a toilet guide, provide toilet information over the telephone and the Internet and erect more road signs to help toilet users."

Really...how much can you really say about toilet use such that you need a website, road signs and a telephone campaign??!

I Think I can communicate all the information "toilet users" in just 3 pictures...but I'll spare readers by not posting those pic here. :
