What will you do to celebrate?

Be thankful the thing flushes is how I'll celebrate.

I refer to it as the loo. My uncouth brother calls it the crapper. Other names:

Why don’t they just call it overflowing New York City Day Frankie? Didn’t you spill out of New York?

In Scotland we call it a brush. but because it had crap on in we get rid of it. Just imagine a load of scots peaple running around the place trying to buy another one while the health inspectore are chasing. We end up pointing the brush at them. My god they run then.

Hey, Lewis, how's your mum? I sent an email but haven't heard a word. I guess she's okay.

The first modern flushing toilet was invented in Seattle by John Crapper, hence the names "The John" and "The Crapper".

I've seen photos of a returaunt(I think in Japan) that serves it soups and other meals in toliet bowl shaped...well..bowles. I don't feel like looking for pictures right now. I'm a sure Google or Yahoo may come up with a few for you though.

Personally I don't the alure with eating out of dishes shaped like toliets and etc.

I've heard that before. I think it was on the History Channel, or 'This Day in History' segment. 'shrug' Quite the way to become a household name. As for how it got the name 'the throne' a certain English king (whose name I don't recall at the moment) was so impressed with the idea of 'indoor plumbing' he had his throne made into a toilet, so he could 'take care of buisness while taking care of buisness'. I imagine if a CEO were to try that now, Go to Meeting.com would suddenly have new clients, LOL.

I believe you're thinking of Louis X1V of France. He used to receive foreign ambassadors, etcetera, with his breeches down, sitting on it. It gets worse, but I won't say anymore here. :-)

There was someone on the radio a few weeks ago who had written a book about LBJ. He said Johnson sat on the toilet in Air Force One while talking with his administration with the “closet” door open. He also walked around the plane naked. He did the same in the White House. He was very foul-mouthed and used the “N” word in every sentence. He had sex with whores often even though he was way over the hill and had many health problems.

What else is new about crappy Demonrats?

And thank you for sharing that, Don.
