I'm trying to wrap my mind around what you're talking about there, rog.
I mean, seriously -- running water? In your house?
rather dangeerous, too. what when it freezes in the winter? it can crack your cave in two!
Has anyone else visited the urinal website?
Holy jazus, I've just spent fifteen minutes of my life looking at things I've only shot at before.
My favourite is the one depicting patterns from Staffordshire ceramic dinnerware. Just what you want on your urinal I'm sure. Or vice versa rather.
hahaha, I spent at least 15 minutes there myself. i can't remember where my favorites were. What I was struck by was the fact that the shots (teehee) were from all over the world.
another good one was at a chinese university, that featured a glass wall and opposed a library across the street
There's a restaurant somewhere in the West, I've forgotten so much, where the men's room wall is glass. The urinals face the bar so what you see are manly men concentrating as if they were in a death chess match and then this immense look of relief flows over their faces. It taught me a lot about my facial expressions and how I must look it other, um, intense situations.
And Yes, some of the men forget that the wall is glass and they walk about stuffing themselves back together without regard for the viewing audience.
I heard that the airport in New York has a large black fly painted on the middle back of each urinal ?- seems men are much neater when they're given something to aim at...
Wy
Wy, the black fly must be to remind men to zip up their flys before leaving the room.

There was a bar in Aberdeen where there was TV screens behind glass plates in the urinals, and you could ask the barman to put on a video of the person you'd most like to p*ss on.
The captain of the English rugby team, Will Carling, was the top pick.
So given the choice, who would be your pick to pee on in the urinals? Who do you think would get the most votes?
I dunno, I don't use urinals.
Gore on Board of waterless urinal company
Gore Signs On to New Campaign
New York Times - 11/17/03
FOR Al Gore, a politician so famously interested in both the environment and technology, the offer to serve on the advisory board of Falcon Waterfree Technologies must have been hard to resist.
"He is very concerned about the world water situation and the crisis that the U.N. is predicting ?- that by 2026, the world demand for water will outstrip the world's supply by 56 percent," said James Krug, president of the company's international division.
And so he signed on to be a rainmaker, so to speak, for Falcon's marquee project ?- the waterless urinal.
Mr. Krug said Mr. Gore was urged to join the seven-member board last summer by Marc Nathanson, a lead investor and a Clinton appointee to the Broadcasting Board of Governors. Mr. Krug said Mr. Gore, who is not being paid but receives stock options, had so far "encouraged us to be very active politically to get our message out there, because it's such a compelling technology."
(The technology involves recyclable cartridges and biodegradable sealants, but enough of the dirty details.)
Mr. Gore is no stranger to corporate boardrooms. He and his business partner, Joel Hyatt, a co-founder of Hyatt Legal Services, are developing a cable news channel. Mr. Gore also serves on the board of directors of Apple Computer Inc. and is an adviser to Google Inc.
Waterless urinals are already at Disney World and the Taj Mahal, as well as in numerous federal government buildings, on military bases and throughout the postal service. No word yet on when the White House might remodel its bathrooms.
If they will provide the beer we shall provide the water.
Thanks for the posting. I've often wondered why homes aren't so equipped.
