When I moved here I noticed 13 commodes on my tax bill. Hum I said -
Only 4 total - 3 house, 1 shop. What is the other 9. 30 years ago
there was a saw mill here and there was a wide building...

I thought they counted the mens room of a long defunk building.

They were counting faucets in the house. Missed two. Wow. One is
