My father was a miser
He'd never waste a thing
How I do remember
How I do remember
The corn cob on a string

No corn cobs for me, I prefer the Sears catalog.

Or the stuff the West Germans had at a location south of Stuttgart in the mid 80's. One of our guys said their stuff could be used to remove bondo from car panels. He was prone to extreme opinions. ...but only by a little.

Back in the day, I think U.S. Milspec requirements dictated that the enlisted paper roll, type toilet, 1 EA, be between 100 to 220 grit.

Officer paper roll was to be between 400 to 600 grit.
