To my knowledge I've never gotten sick from whatever malady one might pick up from not washing one's hands after No. 1 in the potty.
I've been sick from a lot of stuff. Food poisoning, breathing toxic air on planes -- I dunno.
But, nothing secifically traceable to not washing my hands.
All of which brings me to the point:
I just saw on television that Purell has produced one more liquid that will keep your hands germ-free.
I don't know how that works or how the other Purell anti-bacterial products work. I mean, you go to the bathroom, you was your hands (some female scientist says you should wash for as long as it takes to sing "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" -- or is it, "Tinkle, Tinkle, Little Star"?) and then touch the DOOR KNOB, which has been touched by thousands of guys who didn't wash their hands and there you are with bacteria growing again.
I understand new research shows that the one place where you can find the most bacteria is on your computer keyboard.
I'm not sure how to deal with this.
I can use Purell on my hands, but then I touch asdfghjkl;' and it's all back on there again.
Maybe I should just do a Dr. Gott and pee on the keyboard, let it dry and forget the entire thing.
