I just saw the union suit comment...haha. Why YES! It does have a handy trap door (good thing too, my bathroom is freezing in the winter) I might go back to Tractor Supply Center (I saw them there when I was buying shitload size sacks of dogfood) and get my boyfriend the 4x. I think we'd make a sexy pair :)
Hope you guys had a safe anfd FUN trip down to see the boys! (I haven't been to SF since '97)
