High Tech at the long drop, or The Morning Shot

First, what is a long drop. For those who do not know a long drop is the hole the servants dig when South Africans go camping.  The hole serves as a toilet.  Once I met a South African and somehow this came up in the conversation.  He was explaining how they camped.

Sitting in Usery Park north of Mesa the normal procedure is a trip to the long drop in the morning to fire the cannon.  As Lord Kadizzle prepared to go to the long drop it occurred to him he would need the traditional reading material.  In the past people simply read the Sears Catalog.  Of course this evolved over the decades to reading the newspaper or a magazine.  At any rate people now get a major portion of their education sitting on the long drop.

Suddenly it struck Kadizzle,  why not take the electronic tablet to the long drop.  So this morning Kadizzle had WiFi at the long drop.  High Tech now makes it possible to find out what is happening in  BF Eygpt while firing the cannon at the long drop. We have come a long way from picking out what we want for Christmas in the Sears wish book to firing off an email while we fire the cannon.
