Tue Jan 9, 8:45 PM ET



NEW YORK, Jan 9 (Reuters Life!) - Home renovators looking to bring life to the smallest room in their home now have the chance -- with a toilet that doubles as an aquarium. The Fish 'n Flush is a clear two-piece toilet tank that replaces a standard toilet tank, with a see-through aquarium wrapping itself around a conventional toilet tank.

"We wanted to develop a product that had a dual purpose - to serve as a proper, fully functional toilet and also as a source of entertainment and conversation," said Devon Niccole, marketing director of California-based designer AquaOne Technologies Inc. which has just started to selling the tank.

He said the company, which specializes in water conservation equipment for home appliance, had worked with a marine biologist to design a tank that ensured the fish were not harmed when the toilet was flushed.

The aquarium toilet tank, which sells for $299 (155 pounds), fits most toilets with the 2.2-gallon aquarium piece able to be easily removed for cleaning. The toilet tank itself holds 2.5 gallons which gives sufficient pressure for flushing.

"Some people think we're nuts but other just love it and parents are using it to help their children with potty training. One thing you can guarantee is that people will be talking about it after seeing it in your home," said Niccole.

*** - Well, at least when the goldfish die, they won't have to go very far for burial. Of course I'd wanna die too if my entire existence was reduced to watching asses all day.

Oh. Hell. How could I have forgotten. Bush.

Shit.

Methane-munching microbes check climate

SYDNEY: Methane-eating microbes discovered on the ocean’s floor may play a crucial role in the methane cycle and in keeping the global climate in check, a new study suggests.

5. The reef I'm not so sure about. They can get big. And wide.

But the methane.... I think they've got that covered.

4. While people around the world starve.

Is there any better reason to see Chimpy and the neocons' delusional fantasies and the ultimate destruction of our way of life as Karmic justice?

6. I agree ConsAreLiars....

It was its absurdity that drew me to this article in the first place.

We have the "War President" telling everyone to keep shopping like nothing's wrong. And to "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain." I'll Decide for you. There is no coherency in the man, whatsoever. I believe he is deranged. Completely divorced from reality. And sometimes I wonder if we'll ever learn not to make despots of men like him.

And the band played on....
