SASF v.11.4 - Gotta Do What You Gotta Doo

There are some things that just have to be done...like going to the restroom, the loo, the WC, the toilet. We all do it. Some of us just do it with more style than others. There's a whole world to explore out there on how we deal with this issue.

Peculiar & Interesting Recepticles


For the Minimalist, we have the Hatbox Toilet. Yes, that's a toilet.


...Or these lovely urinals for guys who...never mind. Ew!


You know, when touring the castles of France, I found myself looking around wondering "where in this place did they go?" Well, perhaps this was the kind of thing they used! Anyone know?


Something about this just seems so very wrong...lol


Ahhh..the pay potty. This one is from England, but they have these babies in France, too. One time, while I was out and about in Paris, I used one of these. You put in a franc (about $.20 at the time) and the door opens automatically. You go in, do your business, and when you exit the door closes behind you. On this particular occasion, a young man blasted into there as I came out. He must not have had a franc or whatever. What he must not have realized is that they're self-cleaning. When the door closes, jets of hot soapy water spray down the inside to clean it for the next patron. The jets started up and you could hear him yelling, pounding on the door, trying to get out. He came out looking like a drowned rat. The old lady sitting on the bus bench next to me and I exchanged a look and burst out into giggles. Poor sap.


bwaaahahahaha! I'd bet the ones with the more appreciative looks get the most use. lol


This, my friends, is a turkish toilet. They have them all over Europe. You can imagine my face the first time I walked into one. Your feet go on the "treads" to the sides and you squat to do your business. Nothing to sit on - that's right. It's a very interesting "experience." Let's just say that it's not advisable for someone with bad balance or slippery shoes.

Damn, I need one of these!

Living with two "boys," cleaning the toilet area is not always a joy. Oh hell, let's face it - it stinks! They aren't the best with their aim, not to mention splatter. Perhaps I should install one of these on the wall:

Think it would do any good?

Speaking of Droppings

Throw in a Giggle

This, having absolutely nothing to do with toilets, had to be shared. It made me giggle like a fool. This guy's got TALENT.

My, what a big Trombone you have!

Shake it, baby! lol

Movin' On

Speaking of what you gotta do, it's time that I tell you, or rather show you, what I have up my sleeve. I'm moving, kids. I have a new blog home you can find right here. Please update your links and come on over to see me. This blog will stay up for at least a while, but I'll be posting to the new one instead of here.

C'mon, come check out Live Journal. There are perks you never imagined on Blogger and it's where all the cool kids play (or so they say. lol).

Have a fabulous weekend!
