They got into the computer while we were out at the lake, and left the pics behind.

33. Ha ha, we were in that town when the tornado went overhead on Saturday!

And in fact we were about a block or two from where that very photo was taken.

45. Yeah, you can see part of the town's name painted on the closest window.

And that arched doorway in the background is the real estate office on Main. The coffee shop we were in when the storm blew over is a block or two away.

11. Nice! Is this Kohler?
I wrote/edited about the janitorial industry for almost 8 years before going to law school and I never made it to any toilet museum.

For shame...

17. Well...
There's one in India.

And one in Massachusetts.
http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2008/01/23/for_toilet_museum_a_final_flush_is_avoided/

And, apparently, one in Kiev.
http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_2504860.html


And an exhibit in the UK, which may or may not still be there.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/1120126.stm

And here's a toilet seat museum.
http://www.unusualmuseums.org/toilet/

An old contact of mine is opening a cleaning museum with a prodigious collection of commodabilia.

(Not that you'd have a reason to go to Pocatello, Idaho, but if you did, I'd recommend you go. The guy's insane, but he knows his stuff.)

Thank you so much for helping Lelapin last night. You two are the best.

And, oh please. Like we even COULD get any prettier.

I SO wanted to sneak some Tootsie Rolls in with us though, just to add a little authenticity to the exhibits.

44. My dear, DA.
I'm glad you didn't share any of those dangerous Wisconsin beers with the cat (that it looks like you're strangling) in that last picture. :P
Is that the kind of dangerous amusement I have to look forward too? :wow:

49. Ha ha!


The one-eyed kitty I'm strangling is my sweetiemost littlest kitty girl Rosemary, who kept trying to climb into my lap while lizziegrace and I were playing on the computer, probably to see what we were laughing at so hard. I finally picked Rosemary up and sat her in my lap, whereupon she was immediately bored. Then I figured that as long as she was there I would try to get her in on the fun, so I was trying to hold her head still so you could see her in the picture with us. But yeah, that is the first thing I thought too - OMG, it looks like I'm strangling that poor little kittie!

Oh dearest ThomCat, you have ever so much amusement awaiting you here, dangerous and otherwise!

:loveya:

It would probably cause a "police situation" even.

I am working up the nerve to go back again.
