late last year i set out on a mission. not a Christian soul-saving mission, unfortunately, but one of danger and mild intrigue and most people not caring. hush hush secret.
it was the oppurtune moment to GAIN WEIGHT! as christmas dinner times were nigh.
for a few years i had been of equal weight to a scyther (123 lbs (55.8 kg) +/- 2 (0.9), depending on the day of the week). a BMI calulation told me that i was marginally normal for my age and height. BMIs are dreadfully inaccurate, as they do not factor lifestyle or other such intangibles. since i'm honest with myself and know that i am a rather dense chesterfieldian tater, i figured that i just need more mass. so i pigged.
not being a real goal setter i merely aimed for cresting the previous pants-on high of 127 lbs (57.6 kg). my pockets were also full at the time. i finally did it a two weeks ago and have been sitting steady at around 128 lbs (58 kg) with PJ pants, which have negligible mass, and cresting at a milestone 130 lbs (59 kg).
if i ever hit 2.58583 x 10^30 kg, can collapse into a neutron star.

so i'm up at around 1 and decided to surf around for urinal targets. i had heard about target stickers that are strategically positioned in the splash-free zone of urinals to encourage splash-free usage (the calculations involved are complex). i happened upon the klokicker
the title links to urinal.net where one can peruse a variety of international urinals. some of them are quite clever. now i want to design a bathroom.

BATHROOM -- J.D., TURK & CARLA'S APARTMENT
[J.D. attends to his hair in the mirror.]
J.D.'s Narration: Whenever someone close to you dies, it's important to keep your head above water.
He hears water bubbling behind him, then turns.
J.D.: Dan!
[Dan quickly bursts out from beneath the stale bath water.]
Dan: I'm up!
[He spits out some water and coughs.]
J.D.: You know, it wasn't exactly easy showering with you in there.
Dan: Well, it wasn't exactly easy for me, either. You have Dad's butt.
J.D.: You think you'll get out of the tub today?
Dan: Yeah, today doesn't look good - by the way, could you get me another beer?
J.D.: No, look, I put a six-pack for you in the toilet.
[He lifts the lid, revealing the bowl full of ice and cans.]
Dan: Ooh.
J.D.: I gotta go to work!
Dan: [as J.D. exits] Okay, little brother, call me if you need... anything. I mean, anything from this particular area. Ooh. [he picks up the plunger] Hello, my little friend. [he extends the plunger, presses it against a can in the toilet, and draws it back into the bath] Ah! Success.

50s Educational Film
Jackie and Randy are beaming, waving.
Narrator: Congratulations! You're expecting! Don't worry - your doctor will tell you everything you need to know!
J.D. steps into camera shot in a lab coat and horn-rim glasses.
Narrator: Hi, Doctor!
J.D.: You'll fart, pee, puke, and poop in front of ten complete strangers who'll be staring intently at your vagina - which, by the way, has an eighty percent chance of tearing! [thumbs up]
Jackie: [to Randy] You do it.
