I wonder if there could be an inexpensive, environmentally safe additive to toilet water that would make it non-splashing. Maybe a plant-based substance that forms a thin film on the surface of the water? Then, when “object” is dropped into the water, it is safely carried down to the bottom of the pool, and nobody is subjected to a poor man’s bidet of splashing from below.

I want the news, not the weather!

strollers should have a mirror attached to the front, to allow you to see around corners and into traffic when you are crossing the street. not actually a rear-view, it’s a side-view.

somebody should make one of those.
