The Cosby Kids

Today's euphemism:

"Drop the Cosby kids off at the pool."

For example, "I'll help you hang the Christmas lights, but first I have to drop the Cosby kids off at the pool."

Happy Friday!

Toilet for Two

As featured on Apartment Therapy today - the toilet that brings couples even closer together!

"The TwoDaLoo is billed as the world's first toilet two people can use ... at the exact same time. It brings couples closer together and conserves our water supply all with one flush. The TwoDaLoo features two side-by-side toilet seats with a modest privacy wall in between. An upgraded version includes a seven inch LCD television and iPod docking station."

Poo for two, plus a TV and iPod docking station? Sign me up!

Grow a Tail

Today's poo euphemism (provided by my brother, Brother Poo) is:

"Grow a tail"

As in "I can't possibly fit any more turkey or stuffing into my stomach until I grow a tail."

Happy Thanksgiving, friends! Tails for everyone!

Update - Porcelain Book Club

S is on page 56 today. I'm glad he's found the time to read 35 pages since yesterday's update.

I'm sure some deep discussion questions will follow soon.

Andrex the Toilet Paper Pig

On the Reuters newswire today:

Stowaway Piglet Survives Loo Roll Ordeal

"A piglet nicknamed Andrex is recovering after being found in the back of a lorry full of toilet paper at a supermarket. The animal, thought to be two or three weeks old, was discovered in a delivery at a Tesco store in Ilkeston, Derbyshire.

Staff wrapped the piglet in a duvet and called the RSPCA, a Tesco spokesman said on Tuesday.

He was taken to an animal shelter in Radcliffe-on-Trent, outside Nottingham, suffering from cuts and bruises to his snout."

Clearly the TP wasn't Charmin, otherwise he wouldn't have suffered cuts and bruises to his snout.

Piglets! TP! A piglet joyride in a lorry! Really, does the news get any better than this?

The Porcelain Book Club

Whenever my coworker S walks by my desk, book in hand, I know that he's planning to spend some quality time in the loo.

So, in honor of Mr. S, I am launching the "Porcelain Book Club." Today, S is reading "The Magus" by John Fowles. He's currently on page 21. I'll post regular page updates for those of you who'd like to follow along. When S has finished the book, he will share a few discussion questions for you to ponder while having a poo.

Quote of the Day

"I'll literally excuse myself and sit on the toilet somewhere to clear my mind. Pulling the energy in and getting the rest out, the debris, is very important."

-Goldie Hawn

For the poo lover on your Christmas list

Pooing Santa and Pooing Reindeer from Urban Outfitters. Really, who wouldn't love to receive one of these in their stocking?

I'd eat this

Ice cream shaped like poo from the Modern Toilet Diner in Taipei - brilliant!
