...that's the way you have to mop!sometimes it's best not to challenge methods of doing something that have been developed and tested over many years. mopping a floor in uganda is a perfect example. as you settle into your new place here and go out to purchase household items, you may be tempted to bring home what seems like a perfectly reasonable thing: a mop. you've perhaps seen many ugandans bent over at the waist mopping their floors and decided that you'd rather stand up, relax, and mop the way we all do back in the good old usa. but take heed! you'll wish you could have those 5000 shillings back. ass-up mopping is simply the only way to get your polished concrete floor fresh and clean! just follow these easy instructions:
- pour some water in your plastic basin
- mix in some lemon-fresh vim (complete with "clorex bleach")
- grab an old t-shirt, dunk it in your vim-water, and wring it out
- bend at the waist, making sure your ass remains high
- slap your wet t-shirt on the floor and begin mopping up the filth (this process involves side-to-side sweeping motions with your hands as you shimmy backwards, one cheek at a time)
- when your shirt has become intolerably soiled, rinse, wring and resume the position!
i can assure you, there's nothing quite like the feeling of bare feet on a cool, freshly ass-up mopped floor. happy cleaning!

My wife thinks you spend too much time on your own out there.
Now I know where I've been going wrong all these years. Thanks for clearing things up for me!
I think your floor is cleaner than mine!
Be careful:
Too clean = No poo flies.
it's a fine line i'm walking, i know. i don't want to chase *all* the poo flies away...i need blog fodder for the rest of the year!
