Another year, another reason to stand up and be PROUD!

Pride is HEEEERE

Well, bois and grrls here we are, another year, and another season of Gay Pride. Did you make it downtown today to see the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the “Gay History” exhibit at City hall today? Idid, kinda….. i got all the way down there waiting for the event to start when all of a sudden i realized that maybe i should not have eaten JUST yogurt with my pills this morning. Desperately searching for a bathroom, i was told by more than one person about the public toilet “around the corner”. Imagine my dismay when i get there, only to be told that there are already 2 people occupying it, and then when i finally get in there I find a person who seems to be wiping his ass with his bare hands. He looked up and me and smiled, yes actually SMILED at me. I fled, my own mess starting to work its way down my leg. Eventuallh i found someplace to releive myslef but not before i had thouroughly soiled myself.

Anyway. This week i will be going out with my camera taking pictures of your pride. Look for a nice slideshow on Monday or so, its gonna be spectacular.

Speeking of PUBLIC TOILETs

Public toilet on eBay

Public toilet for sale. You are bidding on a Hering-Bau WCmatic Automatic/Automated Public Toilet #3 – City of Seattle.

The City of Seattle is making available its surplus inventory of five (5) industrial-grade, automated public restroom facilities. This auction is for one (1) unit only – check our other auction for the remaining 4 lots.

This automatic public toilet (APT) was made by Hering-Bau International of Germany. These units were installed in several locations around the city of Seattle in March of 2004 and have seen moderate, average use since then. City officials have decided to pursue other options for public bathrooms and are now offering the APTs for immediate surplus sale.

The APT offered in this auction is located in Pioneer Square (S/N: 100). The other units are located near the Pike Place Market, the Elliot Bay waterfront, in the International District and on Capitol Hill.

Purchasing a pre-owned APT can offer significant savings for any company, municipality or other agency considering such facilities, as the cost per unit new is approximately $500,000.

(I would like to order 2 please.)
