I get to be as self-indulgent as I want without wasting anyone's time. Guilt-free solipsism -- excellent!

A rather interesting report on the recent World Toilet Summit that convened in Singapore. A treasure trove of toilet training, this pissoir pow-wow allowed participants to share interesting research on, among other things, a man who defecated on a tray for 12 months, South Korean bladder-tricking practices and, more soberly, the 40% of the world's population that do not have access to adequate sanitation.

I have to agree with Dr. Pathak, who stated, "People think much more in the toilet than elsewhere and with more concentration. They should really be called peace and reflection rooms and designed accordingly."

I hope next year they get around to analyzing the world's bog reading material -- an old copy of the Trouser Press Record Guide and The Onion's Our Dumb Century book have long served me well.
