Probably the most fascinating piece of spam I’ve ever received:
Aupu Bathroom Master combines heating, exhaust fan and illumination all in one to bring you comfort while bath. With either warm wind blow or infrared heat lamp, our bathroom master provides instant and well-distributed heat. Powerful exhaust fan effectively removes steam and fumes. Standard bathroom illumination is thoughtfully included in some models. The Jim-Dandy series is newly designed with anion function to improve air quality in your bathroom.

I’ve been getting some really funny spam lately. Has anyone else received this one?
No one likes to touch the toilet seat. Why else would public restrooms offer those little paper liners? Fingertouch brings you that type of service at home. You never have to touch your toilet seat again.

I think that this proposal is just crazy. The one on the left is far superior, both aesthetically and ergonomically. Let’s just hope she’s never made Queen. Who would want to live in a totalitarian tp state?

Restrooms of the Future has been on the web for years. There are essays for women, a collection of surveys on bathroom use, and notes on bathroom security. This is a must-visit for anyone who … er … uses public restrooms.

Another product, which apparently was not hep enough to get infomercial-ized by my current employer, is
The Drain-Blaster® PLUNJ-N-SNAKEtm
SNAKE STORES IN HANDLE!
Don’t ask. You really don’t want to know. But there is one on the desk in the empty office next to mine and it makes me very nervous.

Firda has redesigned again and I am completely amazed at how wonderful the new wannabe site looks. It is beautiful!
Nik helped her, and for that I will correct the fact that I’ve had him listed in my Prolific-style combo-box as Fairvue Ventral for weeks now. Plus he’s got a great page.
Jason sent me a link to PimpBuilder yesterday. Very nifty, but requires a good connection and lots of macromedia detritus.
Jason also sent me a link to these really nifty imported toilets. If Jason ever gets his own blog I will lose a valuable <lnk src>
So … to round out the list … I found the Stud Test at weblog wannabe’s place. Now, I am really not feeling like a Stud lately. Well. Okay, I am. But I’m not in a good mood. I am currently not living within 4 ZIP Codes of the state of Happy. And those little tests are always so … validating. So I took the test and I was completely and totally honest. I even held off on lying to the answer about having talked my way into a threesome with Cindy Crawford and a French-Swedish Babysitter. When I hit the <submit> button I expected some cute little response about what a really hoopy frood I am, right? This is the response I got:
Your score is: 138.5
SUPERSTUD! DU-UDE. You live the kind of life other guys dream of. This is an important responsibility. You are now expected to save lives, pick up bar tabs, and have sex with entire sororities.
So you can imagine I am in a slightly better mood. Not much, but slightly. I won’t even say anything about how Ryan and Jason both scored sub-30 and I out-studded Firda by 148 points …
