Now for something lighter... Jeff Vader and Toilet Spritzing

I need a mood lifter, how 'bout you?

First, I know most of you have probably seen this, but my friend Ambassador shocked me this week when he said he hadn't, so: If you *have* seen it, watch it again because, really, it gets funnier every. single. time. And if you haven't seen it, get ready to fall head over heals for Eddie Izzard.



Second, Amy, I acquiesce to your eloquent plea. I visited the Merc and spritzed my hands. I shall be buying a funky toilet sprayer! AND THEREBY WILL BE SAVING THE WORLD. Bwaa haa haa. But whenever people freak out trying to use the damn thing - I am giving them your home phone number.

I must live under a rock. I have never seen that Lego Star Wars thing. But Oh I love it! I've watched it about 9 times this morning. What a great way to start my Friday.

LOL! I can't tell you how many times I've watched/listened to Eddie's "Deathstar Canteen" bit (and laughed my ass off each time), but this was the first time I'd seen the Lego clip. Thanks for sharing!

okay, first of all BWAHAHAAAAAAA at the Star Wars thing. I immediately forwarded it to Tim who proclaimed that, "Eddie Izzard is f***ing hysterical..." and now that you're saving the world with the super fantastic eco toily, I hereby salute you. You rawk sawks. It's official.

I think I'll need to take a field trip to the Merc. But I wonder, how much space do you need around your toilet to make this thing useful?

SJC, maybe that's where I saw it first, I am not even sure. It's so ingrained in my psyche now. ;)

It's so funny you posted this. We've been researching those toilet lit sinks too. Our one bathroom downstairs is just a closet with a toilet... we call it our outhouse and decorated it appropriately. When we use that bathroom we have to wash our hands in the kitchen sink. I think Amy has convinced me to go ahead with the little odd sink!

I love how the Japanese are so ahead of us eco-speaking. Well, lots of places are so ahead of us. Anyway, no reason to not get the toilet sink. Have you gotten it yet? And my phone number is 1-800-Save-The-World! Ha! ;-)
