Here’s a story that would be more suited to Flushing, NY:
Trenton’s health department could shut down some city buildings if a toilet paper shortage isn’t resolved soon.
“It could be an inconvenience for anybody, young, old, male, female,” said Maryann Wooten of Hamilton Township.
The toilet paper and paper towel supply for at least eleven buildings, including city hall, are dangerously low.
“We have one box with about fifteen rolls of toilet paper and that’s it,” said Harold Hall, Acting Public Works Director.
Trenton residents shouldn’t be outraged. They should turn the other cheek.
