I think it's regarded as a healthy excercise so as to fight of effects like cold sinks...

It makes sense; I have heard that a cold shower is good for the circulation?

I cant remember the exact specifications of which muscles to flex (bar the obvious) from the top of my head (no sniggering at the back) but I'm sure it's the pelvic something or other - strangley enough, something you use to avoid damage when falling on your back - to help give the poor chap a little bit of a work out.

I wouldnt be suprised if you can get little bumb bells either...

As for cold showers...well if it's something you enjoy, like a warm shower, it's either bad for you or something unpleasent is better for you...

Of course you are assuming that we don't like that cold ceramic feel against our..... must stop at this point.

As Kafka puts it in A Tale of Two Cities, and i quote, 'nay set light to a fellas troosers when blows the untuned trumbone of destiny, Aye'

Is the main point of this invention to help maintain structural integrity?
Could your device not be miniaturised and produced in the form of some kind of pill shape?
If so then I might suggest that you contact the BMC and Pfizers as they have been looking for an invention such as this for ages.

Otherwise a warm flannel on the edge of the sink may work wonders.

Or a towel. Either around the waist or draped over the edge of the sink.

You haven't read the OP properly, have you? Or most of this thread?

Well, have you?

Surely the best solution is to save time and shave in the shower. Unless, of course, you're using an electric razor in which case just stand further back from the sink as there are no clippings to worry about.

QED
