...your works are wonderful, I know that full well.

One of my BFFs, upon entering into the potty-training phase of parenting his girls, came to the conclusion that we girls have a "design flaw."  According to him, we girls pee everywhere and, of course, can't pee standing up.  Never mind he is a pastor and the designer he is critiquing is the Almighty Himself.  Oh, and if you're reading this, Brother, I have two words for you -- well, really, one word and some numbers:

Isaiah 29:16

Don't worry, girls, I got our backs...[wink wink]

Well, I was just beside myself with glee when I stumbled upon this add in the Pearson's Luggage catalog. 

I submit to you Exhibit K -- the GOGIRL.


Only $9.95 people.
And it's made in the good ole' U-S of A.

Okay.  What do you say to this?  Speechless?

Not me.

First of all, I applaud them for their ingenuity.

Second of all, is this really necessary?

I mean, WHEN do you actually need this GOGIRL contraption?  It is the year 2010, right?  We all have indoor plumbing, right?  Well, I kinda didn't a few weeks ago, but that is for another post.

Where are you going to be going, that you will have use for this thing?

Okay, trying to give them the benefit of the doubt...

Maybe you could use it when you go camping.  Right, no squatting in the woods.  Okay, I'll give them that. 

Then shouldn't it be in a camping/outdoor catalog?

Okay, more benefit-of-the-doubt-giving...

Okay, it's a luggage catalog.  I'm thinking, maybe it's for people traveling to third-world countries that don't have indoor plumbing.  Yeah....that has to be it, right?

But the suitcases on the preceding page will run you a few Benjamins apiece.  If I'm going to a third-world country, I ain't bringin' no $300 suitcase.

I'm bringing this baby from Wal-Mart[s]:



3-Piece Value Luggage Set, Black - $19.00

I don't know - but I think people are just way too nutty these days.  Like this guy, Dan, on Survivor this season. 

He wore a $1,500 pair of shoes onto survivor.  Another lady on the show, Holly, got mad at him and buried them in the ocean.  Well, if you're stupid enough to wear a $1,500 pair of shoes onto Survivor, you deserve it.  Sorry, buddy.  I "got nothin' for ya'", like Probst says. 

I think I was born in the wrong decade.  I don't think people were this dumb in the 40s.  That's when I should've been born.  I woulda' rocked the 40s.

And that GOGIRL would've come in handy then.
