Odds & Ends

Definitely, takes your breath away walking into this bathroom with the painted floor.

Boy shakes the hand of a street performer.
Acrobatic bull jumping.

This person won the Guinness World Record for the most body piercings.


For those patrons who would like to bring part of the orchestra home with them. This baritone horn was converted into an urinal. ( I wonder if it produces a rich horn sound when flushed?! ) ;-)

My favorite toilet of them all. This toilet would make everyone a "stander" rather than a "sitter."


And finally, another Chinese toy recall.

The pierced guy is creepy, but I like the other ones. Love the kid sliding down toward the grater!

Happy September!

dantallion: The MRI would literally, pull all the medal out of his face. It wouldn't be a pretty sight. I recall once, at one hospital where I would see patients, a person brought down a patient on the right gurney but forgot that an O2 bottle was underneath it. When the patient was wheeled into the MRI room, the magnet tore the O2 bottle out from under neath the gurney and pulled it into the magnet. luckily, the patient still in the MRI unit didn't get injured.

Happy September to you as well!

Butch said...

Joie: It certainly is an eye opener if you aren't expecting it.

Hello, Funny Man! You've reminded me of a joke.

In the waning days of the Clinton Presidency, Hillary and Bill hosted the Bushes for an orientation session. After the first day, George couldn't stop talking to Laura about how impressed he was that the Leader of the Free World had his own solid gold urinal, going on about it all night.

The next day, when Hillary and Laura got together for lunch, Mrs. Bush mentioned her husband's fascination to the First Lady. That night, Bill asked his wife how her day had been.

"Oh, good," she replied, "and I think I figured out who peed in your saxophone..."

Butch said...

Greg: I'm wondering what Bill's saxophone was doing in the bathroom?! ;-) Funny joke and it sounds like something that bumpkin would do.

Gill said...

A cheese grating slide? shiver! Yikes!!! What will they think of next?

That toilet is just plain freaky.

Butch said...

Gillian: My exact feelings when I first saw that slide.

That toilet has the same sneer as our VP. Darth Cheney.

Patrick said...

The invisible floor bathroom is my favorite, but I wonder if it would be too freaky first thing in the morning, before my coffee? I guess I'd just get used to it, but that seems too bad in its own way.

Butch said...

Patrick: Going in there for the first time might stop a person first. I know I would hesitate for that split second and then, venture in cautiously. ;-)

Joe Masse said...

The bathroom floor is sensational. But could you live with it...?

The slide is a cool sight gag, though I hope it doesn't really exist. Whose house is this anyway?!!

Butch said...

Joe: I think that bathroom floor would take some getting used to. It must have a protective coating over it so it doesn't scuff.

The slide has to be a sight gag. Putting a grater together with a slide was clever.

I haven't a clue who owns the homes where these pictures were taken. I was on a site once that showed bazaar toilets, sinks etc., but it didn't reference whose homes they were in. One sink has faucet fixtures that were in the shape of a penis with two testicles on either side/ ( the hot and cold knobs. ) One has to have a special taste for items like that. ( or is that no taste?! )

Greg said...

I hadn't considered the scary idea that this might be all in one person's twisted home.

Butch said...

Greg: LOL!! You found me out, I confess. . . It's all mine!!! Bwahhaaaaaaaaa!!!

(Just kidding, of course.)heh heh , really...
