"The creative brainchild of Aldo Leopold, Roald Dahl and a skilled plumber, this tantalizing chamber of excretion pushes the threshold of interior bathroom design."

"Instilling both a deep love of the natural world as well as a childlike sense of wonderment, no bathroom has ever been such an emotional experience as this...."
Speakers play continual audio of a babbling brook and the calls of wild forest creatures, and shimmering LED lights mounted in a navy blue ceiling mimic a starry night sky. The artistic heights this exemplary institute of excretion reaches were such that I felt like I had to check with someone to make doubly sure I wasn’t accidentally defiling a graduate student’s art installation.

This wondrous forest aesthetic contrasts with several abstract elements to create a subtle but welcome sense of surreality. The stall doors are a crimson red, custom-designed to mimic the iconic pay phones of London....
The best bathroom at the University of Wisconsin—Madison... and don't miss links to reviews of other on-campus bathrooms.

Interesting way to waste time, reading those articles.

We need pics of the law school bathrooms.

OK, I want to see the toilet paper. But then I don't recall Andy Warhol painted an iconic roll of Charmin's.

The art of plumbing is a deep subject. The Roman Empire did their aqueducts with arch style and many work today except where they were bombed by the US Empire's Air Force.

No swastikas in that bathroom, that's for sure.

...who died in 1948 and 1990 respectively; and who apparently spoke to the skilled plumber through a Ouija board.

Drudge is having fun with Hillary's hair, and wigs.

Never heard of 'em. Are they somebodies? I mean, are they somebodies enough that not recognizing their names reflects poorly on the nonrecognizer?

What's interesting is that the guy - it wasn't a girl - who did work shall remain nameless.

Teacher fired for not calling a girl a boy (or vice-versa, hard to tell sometimes).
"Attorney Andy Taylor pointed to Kirksey's protected class as a black female over 40 who holds religious convictions."

The best bathroom in the world is the one closest to me when I am under pressure.

My grandfather's outhouse had many of these features.

Sometimes, when I'm out in the fields with my dog, I'll just pop a squat and let it out as I enjoy the day.
The other people at the dog park have asked me to quit doing that though.
