SAN DIEGO -- Police in San Diego are looking for a potty perp.

Someone swiped a high-tech toilet seat worth about $2,700.

The seat is thermostatically controlled and circulates hot water to warm the bottom.

The theft victim told police the specially made potty seat was taken from an unlocked storage facility. The man said he had the seat because he hoped to market it in the San Diego area, but the company that makes it wanted it back.

He said he discovered the seat was missing when he went to get it.

I'm wondering if it was a Japanese toilet seat. Those Japanese toilets are incredible.

The toilets in our home do that and they didn't cost no $ 2700 !

Oh, high tech. I thought maybe Marilyn Monroe had sat on it.

Was that in bad taste?

My hubby would contend that by keeping the toilet seat up at all times keeps it warmer. ;o<

Does anyone know if they make toilets that stop the water supply by itself once it knows it's going to overflow?
That is the only feature i would want. I hate getting that sinking feeling when you realize it's plugged, rushing when it's at the last few inches below the rim, get down and turn the valve off like a nascar pit stop, then plunge it to death to clear the pluggup. :)
