H.E. Bishop Williamson has been known to joke about how we pride ourselves on living in some kind of age of enlightenment because of our technological advancements, like "toasters that play golf."
Well, I've never actually seen a toaster that plays gulf, (sorry) but here's the thread where you and I can post links to things that are equally as bizarre/unnecessary as toasters that play gulf.
So if you have found something online that is really bizarre, or really unnecessary, or really "futuristic" (while we're at it, lets see what our "enlightenment" has gotten us lately)... go ahead and share your links in this thread!

No way! I got caught up in the Cuteness you linked this morning, stuck in the cute babies and lost over an hour. The kids needed to see it, also. :laugh2:

I think the Baby Mop is right up there with golfing toasters...
