RIGID SeeSnake

Post by phil » Wed Apr 18, 2007 3:48 pm

It's a color camera on a 3-foot cable attached to a drill-shaped handle with a color CCD.

Full description and photo at

It's a camera on a 3-foot cable; comes with a mirror, magnet, and hook attachments, so you can grab whatever it is you're looking for that fell into the dark maw of your engine that you now fully realize you should never have opened.

It looks like a drill, for some reason, and I have visions of putting the camera into a glass of Coca Cola, pulling the trigger, and watching the soda foam out of the glass from inside as it all twirls at hundreds of RPM, making me sick at my stomach.

doesnt have a price, but can imagine it would be helpful with things dropped down the drain, pipe inspections, or...

clear the dead hampsters from bob's colonoscopy.

My snake is no longer available for sexy chats on ANY cam. But it is rigid at least twice a day.

Apparently this swimsuit will power a RIGID SeeSnake. Or I wouldn't have posted it:

That _is_ the version for guys.

Oh, wait, do you mean for guys to _wear_? Hey, it's Burning Man - wear that one.

But that one is already being used! I don't think I could fit in there with her (although I am willing to try.)

Or did you mean get one like it in my size? Do they come in extra-fat?
