Problem of going at night solved.

Okay, some of you will be glad that I've solved the problem of having to go at night at Burning Man:

This stays in the tent.

Actually, all they sell is the glowing strips; costs $15 including s/h.

We'll see how good my aim is standing in a tent over a 5-gallon bucket, right honey?

I just read to the part about 15 minutes of charging gives a 10 hour glow and now I'm thinking of other uses, like marking the door to the RV, the entrance to a tent, the top of the cooler...........

Sometimes when we lash out at others, it is a cry for help. Maybe "you" have "a friend" who has a "problem" finding 'their' "ass" 'with' "both hands".

We are all "friends" here, "Bob".

There is glow in the dark paint and the coolest thing I've seen is floor striping (3M?) that can take being walked on.
I wish I'd had that as a kid.

This is the Green year. Shouldn't you people avoid needless gadgets? Doesn't every cheap plastic gadget cause a disturbance in the Green Force?

We all know that the "Green" is directly opposed by the "Dark", so if your cheapie plastics glow you're canceling out the Dark and the Green and staying neutral.

Our Sunday paper carried an article about the rising popularity of urinals in upscale homes. Kohler even has a waterless one available. I gather that part of the sell is that urinals use less water than toilets. Another is that it solves the toilet seat problem. Oh, and part is that they are now being designed to look artistic and attractive! :? (And part of the attraction for the companies selling them is that they cost a few hundred dollars, and you still need a toilet, even if you are a guy! :wink: )

Next thing you know they'll have glow-in-the-dark cock rings for truckers so they can piss in a bottle easier.

3M Diamondstripe goes on sticky and then hardens to a permanent application.

Whereas in my non-upscale home, I pee in a repurposed laundry detergent jug. I displaced the water volume in the tank so it doesn't flush poop as well, but the urine from the pee-jug acts as a booster when I add it to the flush.

It's not like Rochester, NY has any kind of water shortage but it's nice to significantly reduce the number of daily flushes anyway.

Uh, so how does it smell after a week in the jug?

A lot of stuff goes on sticky and hardens into a permanent application. Something I'm often trying to prevent.

Phil, all you need to do is break a glow stick into your beer before you drink it.

It's designed to act like an epoxy after time to position.
Fair warning if you put any on.
