The showers in my daughter's dorm turned scalding hot
whenever a toilet was flushed. To warn others, residents would
yell out, "Flushing!" each time they flushed the toilets.
During one of my daughter's visits home, a friend stopped by to
chat for a while. I was explaining how my daughter was acting
more distant now that she was in college, and that she didn't tell
me all about her life the way she used to.
Suddenly we heard my daughter call out from the bathroom,
"Flushing!"
"Good grief," said my friend, "How much more do you want to
know?"
