hahaha I actually managed to do that.
I used a power door lock actuator from a car then built a little interface that hooked upto the parellel port. I had a webcam pointing in the toilet, you click a button on the webpage and it would flush. You could also turn the light on and off in the bathroom. I had to shut it down though because it was all running off my cable modem and it got a *little* too popular and completely killed my bandwidth... and thats why I'm not posting the link on here! =)
