Smoke on the Water

So the other day I was thinking about the water sloshing around in my toilet bowl.

Yeah, this is going to be a profound post.

Anyway, what got me thinking was how metallic blue the water was. I recently tossed a long lasting cleaning tablet into the reservoir that is supposed to clean the john whenever you flush it. For whatever reason the doo-dad dyes the water blue as well. This is probably to put one in mind of the endless blue of the ocean or a mountain lake. That, and when the color runs out you know it's time to buy a new breath mint for your toilet.

But what if you don't want blue water? I think the cleaner comes in some sort of wintergreen color as well. Neon green water is not exactly a color you see in nature outside of stagnant, algae filled ponds. But why not let the consumer decide on the color of water they want? Why not red? Every time you flush you could thrill to the sight of blood red water seeping out of the fixtures. It would be like a horror movie every time you flush. That would be quite the sight.

Note to Self

Be judicious in the use of the "random" tag. Since there is no guiding principle behind this blog every useless piece of crap I post could fall under that category.

Now that I think about it, I should probably have a "useless piece of crap" tag as well.

Today is the first blog of the rest of your life

Hey ho, what do you know, I have a blog! Since Geocities went and died on me I realized I needed to have a new place on the world wide web to pointlessly pontificate. To that end I decided it was high time to get into the whole blog thing. But what am I going to post here? At this point I'm really not certain. But at least I have staked out my territory so I can use it at some future date.

Will this be a bold new venture in aimless ramblings? Will this blog fall victim to neglect and disuse? Will I forget my password? Only time will tell.
