Sometime in August of 1999 a very perceptive lady with whom I had been corresponding with noted my puzzlement with this shower curtain and rather gently took me to task for not knowing the obvious...
I finally got back to your web page. In todays adventure, we faced the dreaded Shower Curtain. The author gives a colorful interpretation of how to care for said Shower Curtain.... The "cup" is a wash tub and your water temp should not exceed 120F. The box with bars means "line Dry" and the "Sun God" tells you not to put it in the dryer... But I would venture to guess that the shower curtain has still never been washed for fear of violating it's explicit washing instructions or it was thrown away because one didn't take the time to understand it's needs. |
Her ventured guess is wrong. Even without being able to divine the inscrutable meanings of said icons, I was somehow (in my clumsy and bumbling male way) actually able to wash the shower curtain, not once but TWICE. Both times with no ill effects to the shower curtain. God I'm good!
But regardless of all this nonsense, I still contend that this information is somehow linked only to female genes and that I would have no way of knowing this unless the Lady Of The Lake, her arm clad in the sheerest samite thrust out of the water and held aloft EXCALIBER! And then explained it. That a woman told me this information is as damming a testament to my inalienable rightness as there can be! Either that or I am just a bonehead...
