Palace Thrones



While I may live in a trailer, I work in a palace. Saddam built many, many palaces throughout the country (I think they number in the low hundreds). Now that I’ve been in several, I can say that my bathroom experience has peaked. No longer need I frequent port-o-lets and wet crappers. Courtesy of Saddam’s former regime, I am in toilet nirvana.

The bathrooms in the Republican Palace all are lined with multi-colored marble and are large - about half the size of my trailer living space in some cases. The restrooms in the north ballroom were made to accommodate big functions and are quite spacious. The men’s room has a bank of urinals and upwards of fifteen toilets, each in their own marble-lined room with an oak door.
