Jun 22 2007The Pool Treadmill
The Pool Treadmill allows you to swim in your pool as if it were a full-sized lap pool. Turn it on and it creates a downstream current of up to 6 mph. Sadly, the thing costs $3,999.95. For that price I could probably just buy a river. Or Australia. I have no idea how much things cost...

When I was a kid, I used to swim into the jet-stream that shot clean water into the pool and it had the same effect. I find it hard to believe that the grown-up version would cost an extra $3000, especially because if you had an extra $3000 you could probably afford to buy a bigger pool.

Hmmm... If you wanted to save $3980 you could pay the towel boy to put his foot on your head? But if you had $4000 spare dollars and a towel boy you'd probably be Elton John or Michael Barrymore... eeeek!

Actually, Australia costs a little more than that to buy, mainly because it's got me in it. That automatically puts the price up by a couple of million.

You do realize that u could just buy a small outboard boat engine. It would probably cost less and you could use it if u had a boat.
