Wait until Billy Mays hears about this! Think about Billy Mays in the shower...on second thought...don't think about it.

[Siouxie]

Truly amazing. Will there be another sensor telling us that our bodies could, potentially, get wet??

[Loudmouth]

Edmunds Scientific always had the best stuff.

The karaoke version pulsates as you sing.

[Jazzzz]

any guy that buys this is incapable of using "complicated tools"

[Cheryl Howard]

I'm confused. Am I supposed to go into the light or stay away from the light?

[Horace LaBadie]

Now if it would apply the soap.

[frodolives]

"Easily install the instrument without the need for complicated tools."

Siouxie, is 'install the instrument' the new euphemism???...

Inquiring minds will be THWACKED repeatedly should just go back to bed want to just be left to their own devices thoughts.

[Margaritaville]

No, no, no. Worthless! They need an invention that actually keeps the water at the perfect temperature so you don't have to keep adjusting it when you are warming the globe by taking an hour long shower.

[frodolives]

M'ville, you have an indisputable point. Al Gore cedes. Game, Set, Match... Next?

[Jazzzz]

Horace.... if it would apply the soap, everyone would be late for work

[frodolives]

Cheryl, I'm sorry, my own thoughts of something else came into play there... But, no, "Go into the light... they're heeee-rrreee!"

[Cheryl Howard]

Frodo, exactly.

[Cassie]

Isn't that supposed to be green light not blue?

You're going to confuse me when I get to the stoplights.

Red means stop.
Yellow means slow down or go faster.
Green means... there is no green! It's blue light for go.

Sorry, I love the words green light. Blue light reminds me of Kmart.

[MartiniShark]

You can just hear Billy Mays now - "Finally you can take the guess-work out of taking a shower!"

[nursecindy]

Horace if it applied the soap and had a little roller that went over your body then you would basically have a car wash in your shower.

[nursecindy]

Also Sharkie, as long as it's Billy Mays and NOT Vince talking about how much we'll love his nuts. I would cancel my cable subscription.

[Stev0]

To quote somebody whose name I forgot, I am not making this up. I HAVE one of these things! I got it free for submitting enough boxtops Think Geek points.

[frodolives]

nursecindy, I'm really, ... well, kind of concerned about you in a professional sort of way... any problems at home that we should know about???

*SNORKS!!* (or, maybe not so much...)

[nursecindy]

frodolives if things were any better at home I'd have to shoot somebody in the thigh.

[frodolives]

ummm, OK, cindy, let's go with that...

Freudian: Are you thinking of your father's thigh?

Cognitive: In order to shoot, you need to pull the trigger... Is there another option, that you could choose right now, that leads to greater rewards for yourself?

Behavioral: You have no home, therefore you have no thigh to shoot but your own.

Gestalt: "Be the thigh!"
"Umm, excuse me? What do you mean?"
"YOU ARE THE THIGH! STOP DENYING THAT YOU ARE THE THIGH and BE the thigh!!!"

Dirty Harry: I know what you're thinking... You're wond'rin', did he fire six shots or only in the thigh?"

[nursecindy]

frodolives now I'm concerned about you! Let's go over your theories shall we?
1. Freudian. Ummmm, yuck! No I try not to think of any of my parents body parts. As far as I'm concerned my parents are about as anatomically correct as Ken and Barbie.
2. Cognitive? No. A greater reward would be if I had a Cosmopolitan being served to me by a sexy, George Clooney look a like butler. But that's just me.
3. I have a home and it's paid for!!
4. Uh no. Are you hallucinating? Be the thigh? Pulease.
5. I subscribe more to the Karl Jung theories of balance and harmony in life. He felt that most humans were spiritual beings. He was a theoretical psychologist. His most notable ideas include the concept of psychological archetypes, the collective unconscious and synchronicity.
Did I mention that in addition to working in the ER I was a Psychiatric Nurse for several years??
Now why don't you lay down on the couch. Relax and tell me what's on your mind. (pats sofa and gives nut a reassuring smile)

[frodolives]

heh, heh, heh... I would LOVE to extend this conversation with you cindy, butt Dave Barry's blog ain't wouldn't be is not the appropriate place to do so. I DO want to extend the conversation, because I am throwing all professionalism aside begging the court, "Your Honor, she stated she was patting the sofa and giving said 'Nut' a reassuring smile." Will Your Honor allow a continuance for the plaintiff defendant party represented on the first part to prepare a statement?

[frodolives]

cindy, I just tried to post a follow-up, put bots wouldn't allow it! I would love to talk more about our collective archetypes (which, just throwing it out there, WBAGNFARB), but Jung was the keystone, how can you not accept "#4", when Jung was the basis for .. ah, nuts, Dave Barry's blog is not the place to talk about this! This is a place for fun, and this being my birthday, I had a great time with you and the rest! Thanks for a nice birthday!

"frodo"

(Yeah, there's still unfinished conversation, but we'll do that another place and time... I haven't lost this argument yet!)

[nursecindy]

frodo, Happy Birthday! Yes, we definitely need to finish this conversation which should be interesting. My birthday was last week which means we are both Taurus. I'm not really into astrology but I have been accused of being stubborn. I don't see it myself. Here's something for you to think about:
“The pendulum of the mind oscillates between sense and nonsense, not between right and wrong”
Guess who said that?

[Allen at Division]

Hey, the discussion reminds me of psych class way back in collegezzzzzzzzzzz--Huh? What?

My summary of all therapy: What do you mean by that?...

[caffeinejunkie42]

btw, this "new" invention has been available at ThinkGeek for years. There's also a version for your sink.
