My co-workers and I are alternately fascinated and repelled by this book. The very first toilet featured in the section devoted to North America is the revolting commode at CBGB's. I suppose some people take pride in having survived a visit to this particular loo, but sweet god almighty. Just earlier this week I learned that the owner of the now-defunct club is moving his operation to Vegas... and bringing the bathroom fixtures with him.One of the authors is stopping by tomorrow to autograph. I'll have to get her take on the most disgusting public restroom in North America.

How many times have you seen a teenage girl or young woman on television telling Maury or Jerry or even Oprah that she has never had sex and that she caught the STD or got pregnant simply from using a public restroom toilet seat?!?! We all thought those girls lied didn't we? After viewing some of the toilets in this book, I realize, those girls might be telling the truth. Disgusting display.
You know, the CBGB toilet is not even the dirtiest toilet in the neighborhood. The prize goes to the Marz bar, two blocks away. see for yourself: http://www.flickr.com/photos/betheboy/175738126/in/set-72157594178448321/
I think I'm going to be sick.
