One of my favorite "towel" quotes from the series [paraphrased as I do not have the inclination to look it up] "...wiped the mouth of the bottle with his towel, this had the opposite effect of his intention as it killed a virulent plague on the towel that would have wiped out half the population of earth" .

I shall have to carry a towel for part of the day tomorrow. The first priority is to wear my Dress Whites in honor of those who have paid the ultimate price. Is Memorial Day [last Monday in May] as distinct from Veterans/ Armistice Day [11 November] observed in Europe?

Never leave home without your towel
