Joke of the Week
Mike was hospitalized for a few days, and his wife
Carol reported that the dog really missed him. "She
spends the night at the front door, awaiting your
return," Carol said.
"What an example of true love," Mike replied. "I
wonder if you'd be that concerned about me?"
"Honey," Carol answered, "if you were gone
overnight, and I didn't know where you were, you can
be sure I'd be waiting for you at the front door."

Member News: Small Unit Indicating Big Change
P - Pod's collapsible porta - potty is changing the way we envision portable sanitation.
Imagine if your portable unit was a third of its current height; the reality is that you could transport roughly three times as
many units at a time. This is one directi on the future of portable toilets is leaning, as P - Pod has unveiled their prototype
for a new, collapsible portable unit.
While the commercial benefit is certainly there, the unique unit has already begun to receive interest from military and
disaster - rel ief organizations. The latest design even allows the unit to be easily attached to a bumper of a vehicle for
transportation.
The unit uses a single bar inside the P - Pod to hold it
upright. By releasing the bar, the portable toilet then folds
down into it s compact position. One unique factor of the
P - Pod is that it is a locally produced product. Rob Weir, P -
Pod's inventor, is located in Windsor, Ontario – and
conveniently for him, so was everything else. "This product
– when it's all said and done – will h ave been born in
Windsor, developed in Windsor, produced in Windsor,
manufactured in Windsor, Weir said. And continuing with
the local tradition, once the P - Pod moves to full
production, it will likely create "up to 40 new jobs" in the
origin city. REA D THE STORY
