Ok, how many of you have been wondering about how Sheryl Crow is going to handle baby messes??? Is the one square rule going to be used for dirty diapers? What about baby spitups and barfs? Do you think motherhood will change her tune (lol) about toilet paper, wipes and paper towels?

Yeah, she'll be singing a different tune after a few bouts of explosive diahrea (sp?) or vomiting! My brother used to give us a hard time about using disposable diapers -- I told him that since he's not a parent he's not allowed to have an opinion about what I put in the landfill.

Not to rain on the parade of celebrity ranting but the original comment was a joke.

ABC News: Crow Clears Air About Toilet Paper Comment

I am still not convinced it was a joke - I think she just decided to call it one, since it backfired and made her look gross.

Just a hunch.

I can't believe people didn't know she was joking.

I guess that belongs in the Things that make you go "Huh?" topic....LOL

All joking about t.p. aside, we really have to try and do more recycling in our everyday home lives.

I agree with you.

Serious? It didn't strike you as a little absurd and over-the-top, and make you wonder just a bit that it was a joke?

Oh well, either way, Sheryl Crow is a strong, smart, beautiful, and talented singer, a breast cancer survivor, an earth-friendly activiist, and now a Mom. I think she's fantastic!

Well, if it was a joke, then I guess the statements she made after it were jokes too -- about how she is developing a new line of napkins and kleenex so there won't be any need for paper ones.

I agree with some other posters who said she meant it and then decided to change it to 'a joke' because it certainly backfired on her and made her look like such a silly little girl.

I'm going to agree to disagree because I believe it was posted in jest. But no matter the original intent, I don't see why the media or anyone else for that matter would choose to focus on the one square of toilet paper comment rather than on all the positives, including the 11-stop college tour to increase awareness in global warming.

I swear women are their own worst enemies.

BEcause it's funny??????? I wasn't trying to be mean. It just made me laugh thinking about it!!!
