Internet Service through your.... toilet
Yes, thats right folks! Google has done it! They are providing you with the greatest form of communication for free through your toilet. Now thats a big data pipe! They offer it in 3 speeds: Trickle, No. 2, and Royal Flush. It currently only works with Windows Vista and has high hardware requirements. But its free!
/me gets handed a link http://www.cnn.com/2007/TECH/interne....ap/index.html Hmm, get flushing you all, the internet is not getting any fuller. *Note This was a meant as a joke based off Googles annual April Fools hoax*

Hey, I just tried to send a really big file through this new internet, but it got bounced back. Now there's data everywhere!

Everytime I try and put up a firewall, the lid goes down.

Every time I sit down while the firewall is up I get burned. The toilet backs up everything the internet goes down.

So apparently, it's not data overflow you're smelling but Nutz's burnt I/O port.
