Sphere - Michael Crichton, Scott Brick

"Good trip, sir?"

"Fine."

"Need to go, sir?"

"I´ve just arrived," Norman said.

"No, I mean: do you need to use the head, sir."

"No," Norman said.

"Good. Don´t use the heads, they are all backed up."

"All right."

"Plumbing´s been screwed up since last night. We´re working on the problem and hope to have it solved soon." He peered at Norman. "We have a lot of women on board at the moment, sir."

 

 

Yeah ... because that´s what women do: clogging up toilets.

What the heck, Crichton?

 

Anyhow, I had this book for ages on my ebook TBR and now I´m listening to the audiobook, just to get it off of my TBR. After the "toilet incident", I don´t have high hopes for this book, though.
