Forget the better mouse trap. The Dutch have pioneered a product that, we're told, fills a pressing need. "When a lady's options are limited to ducking into a filthy outhouse or squatting in the brush, the P-Mate is her new best friend," Washingtonpost.com assures us. That's right, it's a disposable, leak-proof funneling device that enables women to pee standing up."Surprisingly, the implement, which resembles a cardboard elf's shoe, creates a perfect spout and does what it claims to," the Post reports in a consummate bit of consumer reporting. The P-Mate folds flat into a package no bigger than a business envelope for later disposal. It was invented by a Dutch woman in 1999 and has become popular in Europe and Canada. Look for it soon at a retail outlet near you. Or if you can't wait, go to www.goyourway.net. Five-pack for $5.95.
