John Waters wants to make film on Larry Craig bathroom event.

OKnown at the beginning of his career as "The King of Sleaze,"The Prince of Puke" and "The Pope of Trash," provocative indie filmmaker John Waters has wormed his way into America's heart. His film "Hairspray" was reworked as a Broadway hit and this summer was adapted into a popular mainstream musical starring John Travolta in drag. Another musical, based on his ode to juvenile delinquency, "Cry-Baby," is about to open in tryouts. Waters brings his one-man show "This Filthy World" to St. Paul on Saturday. He'll discuss his career and obsessions, and might take questions from audience members, if they can get a word in edgewise.

Q It's been your job for about the past 40 years to think up shocking ideas, and --

A No, no, no, I'll stop you on that one. I don't agree with shocking. If I was just trying to be shocking, my career would have stopped in 1972. I never tried to top it. I tried to surprise you and make you laugh at things that aren't safe to laugh at. It's easy to shock. It's harder to surprise people and make 'em laugh.

Q Anyway, surprising ideas. The question then is, does it get harder --

A No, every day I'm inspired by things. I live in Baltimore, that always inspires me. Things happen to me in my daily life that are funny every day. I was in a bar in Baltimore and I asked a guy what he did for a living. He said, "Can I be frank? I trade deer meat for crack." I can't think that up. I could think of three movies about him. I mean, does he wait at a deer crossing sign and gun it when he needed a fix? It takes a while to get deer meat so you have to plan ahead, which isn't what most junkies do. Little things like that, anything can inspire me.

Q A couple weeks ago we had a case of somebody seeming normal but behaving oddly --

A Oh, at the airport! I hear that airport is becoming a big tourist attraction. I want to make a movie about it. "The Last Stall on the Left." Sex in a public bathroom? How could you? In every airport bathroom it's very crowded. It's in the main airport, eh? I have to go there. Which stall was it, do you know?

Oh John, PLEASE tell us you are not joking!

If you do make this film, I hope it's filthier than Pink Flamingos.

She can play Larry Craig's wife.

I can see her cussing him out calling him every name in the book (as only Mink can) and then cut to her standing by him at a press conference.

Hey, John, if the studios won't back you, I will donate!
