I am fed up and decided to start a thread. :D Ok those of you who wandered in here under false pretense please leave. ;)

New Zealand is famous for lots of things. I found another invention that I just had to share with you.

"Rick Kirkland of Napier, New Zealand, inventor of the motorised toilet – also known as the Go-racer – is being inundated with sales enquiries from around the world after launching his latest invention at a US trade fair and making CNN news two days running. Kirkland’s company, Evento, specialises in creating off-beat activities for pub promotions and corporate entertainment. The motorised toilets are powered by 24-volt batteries and are capable of speeds of up to 12kmh."

Some more toilet humour? No just a link to some cool toilet seats. A must see.

Care to share any wacky, strange inventions? A joke? Toilet humour? Please do. :)
 
Some guy from Belton Missouri (a suburb of KC) invented Neuticles... prosthetic testicles for dogs so they don't feel immasculated when you have 'em neutered.

Sent some to Clinton when he had Buddy neutered.

In reply I say that after thorough investigation into your question, I have found an answer. BTW This is not an ask debbie a question thread but i will make an exception in your case. :D
In answer to your query? Lead acid batteries contain a sulfuric acid electrolyte, which is a highly corrosive poison and will produce gasses when recharged and explode if ignited. This will hurt you-BAD! When working with batteries, you need to have plenty of ventilation, remove your jewelry, wear protective eyewear (safety glasses) and clothing, and exercise caution. Do NOT allow battery electrolyte to mix with salt water. Even small quantities of this combination will produce chorine gas that can KILL you! Whenever possible, please follow the manufacturer's instructions for testing, jumping, installing, charging and equalizing batteries. Yes! 24 volt batteries can kill you especially if you intend swimming with them. Hopefully the dimension you are in is fresh water only and then you are safe. :)
Thanks for your query. I hope this helps.
 
:confused: There's an adapter for hooking your dog up to the vacuum?:eek:

Gee, you would think they'd just include it with the floor tools.:rolleyes:

Crapper

You do know that the guy who invented the flushing toilet was actually named Crapper...

Not a problem for him, but for his poor grandkids...:)

Are you sure you have to stand on "IT?" Maybe there is an "IT- Crapper" model. Did you ever think of that?

Sorry Guru.... didn't think of that. I sit corrected.:D :cool:
 
Now who invented the bra? Otto Titzling? *snigger*Phillepe de Brassiere? *lol* Apparently not.

"Seems Otto Titzling (no kidding!) developed the bra in 1912 for
Swanhilda Olafsen. Swanhilda was a singer of majestic proportions
who lived in the same boarding house in New York as Otto, who
worked in the garment business. Her need for a supporting garment
was the inspiration for Otto's breakthrough design. Over the years,
Otto's company developed the first "falsies", and padded bras,
adapted a sports protector from 1929 into the inflatable bra, and
developed a front-fastening bra, among others. (The latter failed,
by the way!)

In the early 30's a Frenchman Phillipe De Brassiere began producing
undergarments blatantly based on Otto's designs. Being a much more
fashionable gentleman who had been a dress designer before the
Crash of 1929, he enjoyed considerable success. Otto sued.
Mountains of documentation were presented during the four year
court case.

But alas, Otto had neglected to patent his original 1912 design,
though he had patented all the modifications. It was a difficult
case and although Titzling did receive some damages relating to
certain details of manufacture, the court was ultimately
unsympathetic, and Brassiere really won.

During the trial both sides presented their designs on live models.
Phillipe's model was stunning and got a lot of publicity, among
which was a large blow-up of her in 'The Police Gazette' in a
revealing pose under the headline "I did it all for the Bra". And
the name entered the mainstream, appearing in the Dictionary of
American Slang in 1938, the year the case ended. Sad to say, Otto's
firm never recovered from the financial and emotional set-back.

He died in the forties, still insisting that he was robbed.

And that's why we wear "bras", not "titzlings"


So who was the first person who invented the bra?

Now who invented condoms?

"Gabriel Fallopius developed the first condom in the mid 1500's. He designed a medicated sheath to fit over the tip of the penis and under the foreskin. Later he developed a condom specifically designed for circumcised penises. It was held on by a pink ribbon to make it more appealing to women. Because pregnancy prevention was the female's role, men actually wore them to prevent the spread of venereal diseases - syphilis, in particular. Modern condoms were invented in 1870; however, the thin latex condoms used today were not developed until the 1930's"

Fallopius? Is he related to fallopian? "fallopian \Fal*lo"pi*an\, a. [From Fallopius, or Fallopio, a physician of Modena, who died in 1562.] (Anat.) Pertaining to, or discovered by, Fallopius; as, the Fallopian tubes or oviducts, the ducts or canals which conduct the ova from the ovaries to the uterus. "
