It's always worth checking the Graham Watson site (http://www.grahamwatson.com/wallpapers/wallpapermain.html).

The Eye-tide screensaver is really cool, too. New images are constantly being made available, and you can set any image as your wallpaper. On the downside, getting image updates might be too bandwidth-intensive if you're on a dial-up line.

I still have this one on my desktop. It's from Graham Watson's 2001 TdF collection. Makes people stop for a second look. :D

what if they used foley catheters while cycling? They wouldn't have to stop...they could instead have a drainage (or collection) system...how sick would that be?

Foley catheter = a drainage tube that goes to your bladder.
it is situated like this....

...and held in place by a balloon that is inflated with a syringe

Very painfull when taken out! I had a catheter for two weeks when i had chest surgery. I can not imagine anyone who would want one for any reason.

UH HUH! To think I actually thought this thread was about household wallpaper. Boy I really feel dumb now. I got more than I bargained for here.

Thank you!
