Trespassing by Labyrinth Dog

January 22nd, 2008 10:02 PM / Location: 20.620534,-105.2294

INSTRUCTIONS: Go somewhere you are not allowed to go.

Well, I hope I get this right. The instructions say "go somewhere you are not supposed to go". I used to do that as a puppy, but it was because you know, when you gotta go, you gotta go!
I learned, though, and now I only go where I am supposed to go, that is, outside. Sometimes, like the tab to the right here says, I mark my territory, sure: trees and car tires and all that.
Anyway, I didn´t go where I wasn´t allowed to recently, and wouldn´t have proof of it if I had, either.
But I am under the impression that the "go" in the instructions could be interpreted in a different way, and I hope my interpretation is not too big of a stretch, and well, this is my first task completion alone and I am not very sure of things yet.
So, what I did was to enter a place which is forbidden for me.
You see, we dogs are not allowed to go into public restrooms. Well, I am not sure, maybe some dogs are allowed. I don´t know every dog. I wonder if Poncho is allowed. Geez. But I know that I am not allowed to go into public restrooms. Ever. No matter how thirsty I am. 
And last week I went into one, my first public restroom ever. Oh boy, was I excited! Lots of interesting smells there. The proof that I trespassed there is that I saw this thing.
I can tell you that it was a little too high, but that didn´t matter anyway because it had no water. Pity.
Now, I didn´t have a camera, but I met this guy there, who happened to be taking a picture of the thing. So I asked if he could send it to me. He is not a SFØ player but who still carries a digital camera everywhere, specially to public restrooms, it seems.

(The captions in the pictures are Martin´s comments, who asked me to include them, because he thinks that was a particularly notable public restroom. I wouldn´t know about that).

Water free and with aim-improving features

This is the urinal that you find at Puerto Vallarta´s airport. It is of the "green" variety. It doesn´t use water, supposedly the design somehow allows the drainage of even the last drop of urine without any flushing. But what really caught my attention was the little bee printed, (um, engraved?) in the back wall: is there to help you aim better. Just like the little toilet paper "boats" my mom used to put for me to sink...

Someone told me that in Amsterdam urinals had a "spot-marking" fly. But here you can see that at Vallarta is no fly: a distinct yellow-stripped bee. Why a bee in the restroom and why would one wanted to pee on it?

The bee is a top-of-the-line feature, it seems. Cool how these things work.
