Stranded without wipes when only a fire hose could do the job, each victim gains more than renewed appreciation for indoor plumbing.Anyone who's ever suffered a case of "traveler's trots" or been brought to his knees by the lack of porcelain will relate to these tales of digestive disasters. An IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) sufferer, Estill courageously comes out of the bushes and ventures past the bounds of "too much information" to confess some of life's most embarrassing--yet funniest--moments.Length: 9,000 words (approximately 36 pages)
