"Sometimes you see an invention and you think, "Yes--this is brilliant!" and sometimes you see one and think, "Really?" That was my reaction when I saw an advertisement for Illumibowl--the motion-activated light that illuminates the water in your toilet, available in your choice of eight glowing colors. "Why would I want to pee in a glowing purple toilet?" I thought. Then, "Who wouldn't want to pee in a glowing purple toilet?"
Reminds me of the old joke :
70-year-old George went for his annual physical. All of his tests came back with normal results. Dr. Smith said, "George, everything looks great physically. How are you doing mentally and emotionally? Are you at peace with yourself, and do you have a good relationship with your God?"
George replied, "God and me are tight He knows I have poor eyesight, so he's fixed it so that when I get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom (poof!) the light goes on when I pee, and then (poof!) the light goes off when I'm done."
"Wow," commented Dr. Smith, "that's incredible!"
A little later in the day Dr. Smith called George's wife. "Thelma," he said, "George is just fine. Physically he's great. But I had to call because I'm in awe of his relationship with God.
Is it true that he gets up during the night and (poof!) the light goes on in the bathroom, and then (poof!) the light goes off?"
Thelma exclaimed, "That old fool! He's peeing in the refrigerator again!"
