Something new for the toilet!!

There is a crazy new product out of Taiwan (uh..of course...): the 'rsstroom reader'. This bathroom gadget prints news feeds onto your T-P - that's right, your TOILET PAPER! The best part is the "biometrics" toilet seat that'll figure out who you are based on your weight and prints the news you want - not your roommates tabloid garbage. Going to the restroom will never be boring again! Here's the scoop:
