Toilet Paper available!


Well, maybe not just yet, but it will be:


Putin, Bush and Blair to Appear on Ukrainian Toilet Paper

MosNews

A publishing house in Ukraine has started selling toilet paper with pictures of a number of world politicians, including Russian President Vladimir Putin, U.S. President George Bush, Belarussian President Aleksandr Lukashenko, British Prime Minister Tony Blair, U.S. State Secretary Condoleezza Rice and Russian businessman Boris Berezovsky, the Korrespondent.net website reported Monday.

The Inspired B publishing house prepared three “editions” of the product for sale in Ukraine, Russia, the United States and Great Brtain. The retail price for the Russian and Ukrainian products was announced at about $0.30 per roll.

The toilet paper is made in China by the Zhucheng Senke Paper-Making Company.

2. Ah, where else can we 'get real satisfaction.'
But do I really want any of them there, with or without soap?

And it's funny that they have "Ukraine" in the title, when "Russia" would be just as appropriate, and the pic's in Russian. (I can't imagine Putin's quite as unpopular in the Russian-speaking areas of Ukraine as he is in the Ukraininan-speaking areas.)

Too weird. Then again, it's MosNews. I really wish they'd link to the original Russian stories, though. Assuming, of course, there are original Russian stories behind them ...
