This self-contained and waterless toilet is called the EcoJohn Sr Toilet. Quite simply, it burns the crap you normally flush, into white ash. It operates just like a regular toilet, except that water doesn’t take away your waste. Just close the lid and the waste is whisked away like South Park’s Mr. hankey the x mas poo on Christmas eve. It’s final destination is a burn chamber where it is cremated. A small bit of smoke is belched out and filtered through a catalytic converter before hitting the air.

There is some water involved, just minimal. The toilet is equipped with a small reservoir that holds about a quart of water. Press a special rinse button, and it’s easy to keep the bowl and auger clean. It’s the perfect water saving device, though I’m not sure how I would feel about having a chimney on my toilet.

Now you can feel like those suckers putting in a full day at the Springfield power plant. That is, you’ll be under the watchful eye of C. Montgomery Burns with this webcam. You’ll know exactly how Karl and Lenny feel, not to mention Homer. Don’t fall asleep with a donut in your mouth.

The webcam includes a large clip that allows it to be attached to your flat-panel monitor or laptop screen. Specs: 30 fps @ 640 x 480 with built-in microphone, supports USB enabled machines running Windows 98, 2000, XP and Vista, runs with Skype, MSN Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger and AOL messenger. You can pick up this little tyrant for $49.99.
