2008 Lecture Series

1. Flushing etiquette: the finer points of flushing after each use but knowing NOT to flush when someone is taking a shower.

2. Basic Hygiene: Tips, Tricks and other How To's. "Your mother wants you to know that although she cares for you deeply and did change countless diapers, the time has come for you to take care of this area by yourself. So here is some advice: You may need to wipe more than once. If you don't you may get an itchy bottom. You do not need 40 feet of paper. If you use too much, you clog the toilet and it costs $75 to get the plumber out to snake the toilet. Wash your hands every time, whether you think you "got any" on your hands or not. If the towel falls on the floor, please hang it back up. If you finish the roll, please put a new roll on or you may find yourself "stuck" sometime when another person did not extend that courtesy to you. And let me stress again to the young gentlemen, Please look at what you are doing. Aim at the water and if you miss, wipe it up. Your mother and your sister thank you.

3. Manners: This topic will include break out sessions and group work in the areas of Table Etiquette, Polite Words, Appropriate Behavior on Location (grocery stores, Target, or other locations with lots of people) and a special lecture on the topic of "Things You Should NEVER, EVER say to your Mother".

4. Body Language: Burps and other Natural Gases.

5. A Multi-part series called "Let Me Introduce You to..."
...the Garbage Can! There's one in Every Room"
...the Kitchen Faucet! You too Can Rinse Your
Dishes"
...the Laundry Basket! Not just for basketball
practice!"

The schedule is TBD but if there is a large demand, some topics can be repeated.
