Go do a Google image search for "Walmart". It's not safe for work, but you can probably get away with a quick glance.

I don't understand probability. I get the part where if you flip a coin, there's a 50% chance of it coming up heads. Or if you've flipped a coin twice, there's a 25% chance of it being heads both times. But if you flip a coin a hundred times, and it comes up heads a hundred times, I'm definitely betting on tails next. 50/50 my ass.

I have no idea what's going on here, but I know it's funny.

The Museum of Earth History in Eureka Springs, AK is dedicated to A biblical approach to science and history. They spend a lot of time trying to prove that Man and Dinosaurs lived at the same time. I'd love to check the place uot someday.

The Rest Assured Toilet Seat Covers in our work bathrooms are from another country. If you click the link, you'll see a picture of the exact model located in our crappers here at the office. One difference though. Between the "Assured" and the "Safety - Clean - Safety" at the bottom of their logo it notes that the covers are "Imported".

This got me thinking.

I wonder if the manufacturing locale is a big selling point for RMC. Their website seems to focus on the fact that their covers are biodegradable, flushable, half-fold, and will fit in most dispensers. In fact, the site doesn't even mention that they are "Imported". Maybe the ones distributed to East Coast metro areas are the only ones labeled as "Imported"? Maybe those in the Midwest or Upstate are labelled "Made in the U.S.A." Maybe RMC is just appealing to the average New York City resident's worldy character and if you find their Rest Assured Toilet Seat Covers in a stall in the sticks you'd note that their marketing has changed.

Did they do research on this? Does anyone else even notice? Do the ones in Chinatown or Little Italy get more specific with the "Imported" label? God, I have so many questions now.

UPDATE:

So I called them up.

It turns out that their toilet-seat covers are indeed stamped as a means to differentiate between products lines. The ones in our stalls are apparently manufactured in China (IMPORTED). And it turns out that they do offer alternate toilet seat covers produced in the good old U.S. of A. Pamela, the kind lady from RMC, told me that those produced stateside are made from recycled material. I told her that I was reassured to know that my bare ass was sitting on someone else's old newspaper, but she didn't think it was funny. She didn't think that the production area was a strong selling point one way or the other, depending on the where the product was being used. I told her about my Urban/Rural - Imported/Made in the U.S.A theory, but she wasn't buying. She actually said, "I don't think people think too much about these things." I let her know that she was selling her company's product short. "People think a lot about toilet seat covers," I told her. To which she replied, "Apparently some do."

There are two hot college juniors staying in my apartment for the next four days. I didn't think they'd be here until tonight. Apparently they arrived last night. I woke and and couldn't figure out why Shep was blow-drying his hair.

Looks like they're honoring the Stanley Cup in the only respectable way possible this off-season. A fantastic idea.

This seems like a good idea.

Everton takes a Champions League spot. Woo-hoo.

They were 17th last year (one spot short of relegation). Not a bad turn-around.

And Liverpool better hope they win the Champions League on the 25th, because they won't be back for next year.

A guy meets a hooker in a bar. She says, "This is your lucky night. I've got a special game for you. I'll do absolutely anything you want for $300, as long as you can say it in three words." The guy replies, "Hey, why not?" He pull his wallet out of his pocket, and one at a time lays three hundred-dollar bills on the bar, and says, slowly: "Paint... my... house."
