Just wondering, what are people reading while they take a load off these days? On the back of my toilet, I've got the Hockey News, Maxim, a Hewlett Packard Catalogue, and a Victorias Secret Catalogue for those 'special' moments in the bathroom...

I read aviation-related stuff on the toilet, too.
It's either Airliner World when I get the magazine, or else some old in-flight magazines. This past month I've been reading Malta this Month (Air Malta), CSA Review (Czech Airlines), Ulisse (Alitalia) and Fischer Air Report (Fischer Air). The latter has been in my bathroom for around a week now and I almost know the duty free prices by heart!

I just grab something off my bookshelf before entering the bathroom at home...doesnt matter to me as long as I have something...in those really urgent cases I also have been known to read the labels on cans of Lysol, deodorant, and toothpaste...but only when I dont have time to get into my room first...

When I was young I would sit there forever before, during and after taking a crap looking at the Janes Aircraft Encyclopedia. I had that book memorized.
Now days I take a crap and go cause I don't care to wallow in a cloud of stench!

I usually look at Airways, or some other Aviation related material. I try to imagine I am in an Airplane lavatory. That somehow allows the crap to flow.

I got Hulk Hogan's biography for Christmas, every night that week I read it, I finished the book in a week. I often times would sit on the toliet just to read it. It's pretty interesting stuff on how the WWF/WWE works.
I have a subscription to Airways since 1997 and I get 1 magazine a month, so I have a TON of them next to the can.
