And remember this? It’s been upgraded.

It's hilarious and aggravating. I like that in a machine.

Re the Freshette... Uneven terrain?

Uneven terrain?

It allows ladies to pee while rock-climbing. Or tightrope-walking. And also, more seriously, during Antarctic expeditions.

"“The Freshette protects against unsanitary restrooms, uneven terrain, wind, rain and snow.”"

And also 'wobbly positions when boating'! I'm filled with admiration!

I never realised a Freshette (or by implication all penises) could also be called a 'Urinary Director'. What a title. Folks can start booking meetings with mine from now on then...

@Dr. Westerhaus - Aren't there laws against that sort of thing?
