Kiss this!

According to a radio report, a middle school in Oregon was
faced with a unique problem. 

A number of girls were beginning to use lipstick and would put
it on in the bathroom. That was fine, but after they put on
their lipstick, they would press their lips to the mirror leaving
dozens of little lip prints. 

Finally, the principal decided that something had to be done. 

She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there
with the maintenance man. She explained that all these lip
prints were causing a major problem for the custodian who had
to clean the mirrors every night. 

To demonstrate how difficult it was to clean the mirrors, she
asked the maintenance guy to clean one of the mirrors. 

He took out a long handled squeegee, dipped it into the toilet
and then cleaned the mirror. Since then, there have been no
lip prints on the mirror.
