And now for something completely different…
You are wondering, why does Zen have a picture of men’s urinals on his blog. Well my inquisitive minded friend (s) this is what it is a grout.
This is the men’s room at one of the Halls at UC Berkeley. We have our East Bay Chan ( Zen) Group meetings here. Well not HERE in the Loo, but in this building. This Loo is on the 3rd floor.
It looks like a plain Urinal wall from a far, but up close are examples of the wit of the future leaders of America. In between the tiles written in the grout are re-grouted saying such as…
It’s a grout time…
I’m coming grout…
To grout or not to grout…
Grout of the closet…
Grout me in…
The Grout depression…
Grout cho marx
I thought it would be something different to blog a Grout 🙂
…and now back to our regular programing
Zen's Sekai I - by Land... 
Much appreciated! A library where I worked had poems pinned to the door just at eye height (girls loo of course) It started with John Betjeman (a favourite gentle English poet)
“Here I sit, alone and fifty
“Bald and fat and full of sin
“Cold the seat and loud the cistern
“As I read the Harpic tin.”
It gathered momentum, and everyone posted an interesting or favourite poem , it was called “Poetry At Your Convenience” (a pun which us librarians enjoyed!) Was good reading too!
