Actually, guys, that person is myself.  Sometimes I don't have enough money to wash clothes.  My shower is a 20 ounce soda bottle.  It's a brutal life,  but I've had worse.

Luxury.  I have to bathe with an old soda can filled with creek water every day.  I wash my clothes by standing on them while I bathe and letting my creek water rinse them.

Sometimes I get to think that I should have been a write for the ABC Special "What Would You Do" with Don Quinonias, with some of the crazy stuff I think up.

But some of it really isn't crazy.  Some of it is very real.  Think about this one-

You have a fella coming to church.  Everyone knows him, he's friendly, usually happy and he's familiar with the Gospel and Teachings.  However, he's not a member.

Somedays he comes to church with an odor.  Well, it maybe he hasn't changed clothes, or done laundry.  Sometimes not even bathed.  Who knows the reason.

But do you have a problem sitting next time him in sacrament or sunday school?  What goes through your mind when you two meet?

the same thing that goes through my mind when i have to be in someone's special presence; "--- they could use a bath" ya i'd have a problem; i have hard time with strong odors in general.

The $5 1-gallon pump sprayer from WalMart works quite well if you take the spray wand off the valve.

Did that for a few months.

So, I've been following this girl living off-grid in Wisconsin.  She has to carry her water from her neighbor's barn's spigot into her off-grid home.  She has a 35-gallon tank and she says she lives on that water for a couple of weeks, if I understood her correctly.  That's drinking, cooking, washing dishes, etc.  But she showers at the gym.

(cough cough) We're in Utah.

(cough cough HAAAAAAACK cough) and we're Mormon.

IOW likely chance.

I’m in Vegas ;) but when I was in Utah, there were 300+ active Mormons with access to the internet in a square mile radius.

We have like 20 active members on this forum ;)

Square, then divide, then Pi(R2).

One square mile as radius is 1 mile.  Thus 3.14159265359(1SQ) = 3.14159265359 square miles.

Active members versus trolls and lurkers.  Which is one reason I'm secretive about the video I shared (proving I have and do shower with a 20 oz. soda bottle).  Except now I have a 1/2 gallon pump sprayer I converted.  It helps a lot.  Speaking of which, I'm gathing funds to pick up a replacement trailer.  The massive cloudburst back in June did some damage to my trailer.  Not asking for any, but if anything prayers would help a lot.  Prayers always help.

Assuming she also drinks primarily from other sources, I could see that.
