“Rolling Paper”

Cuban officials are reporting a shortage of toilet paper. The government says supplies should recover by year’s end, but in the meantime, that’s a lot of money down the drain.

As upset as the people of Cuba are, they refuse to cry because they can’t afford to waste the tissues.

Both supply chains affected by hurricanes and economic factors that slowed production have contributed to the current crisis, making it a 2-ply problem.

Until the paper shortage ends, experts predict that a lot of good cigars are going to be unrolled.

Somewhere, supporters of the U.S. embargo are hanging a “Mission Accomplished” banner across a toilet seat.
