HAVANA (Reuters) ? Cuba, in the grip of a serious economic crisis, is running short of toilet paper and may not get sufficient supplies until the end of the year, officials with state-run companies said Friday.
Now this is major news-- No more Charmin....2 ply ohh so soft!!!

Cuba's financial reserves have been depleted by increased spending for imports and reduced export income, which has forced the communist-led government to take extraordinary measures to keep the economy afloat.
Seems that even Cuba is getting hit in the pocket book.

You know boys and girls if Cuba goes belly up the repercussions will be staggering!!

Fortunately food is not in short supply!!

Well Tobacco Leafs would make a fitting substitute. Of course the instances of Anal cancer probably would spike

They might have to make their own homemade wood-pulp toilet paper. The problem with that is that communist toilet paper leaves splinters in your butt!

The toilet paper comittee should had allocated more production to making toilet paper instead of towels. A lesson learned for everybody.
