Too Much Time on Their Hands It struck Leo Hill, 81, of Lakewood, Colo., that he was being shorted sheets of toilet paper (in the 12-pack, whose rolls allegedly yielded fewer sheets than similar rolls in the 4-pack), and he earnestly counted 60 rolls, sheet by sheet, concluding that the shortage amounted to enough paper to service one sit-down session per roll. He took his complaint to the Denver Post (and even to the Better Business Bureau), but the reporter, trying to replicate Leo's work, found no shortage, in Leo's brand or eight others.

Wah Piang. I hope i don't do that when i am 81 years old. But than again, that depends whether i can live to that age. Maybe i can if i quit some of my habits, like surfing the net and coming across this piece of news...
