121. Use it to clean up the mess you made when you spat out a liquid that was almost, but not quite, exactly unlike tea.

74. If both the marker and towel are washable, and you don't have a piece of paper, you can write stuff on it (but I can't see why you'd want to).

Or if you had a white towel you could bleach it after each message you wrote on it.

132 - You could take a towels on their last leg and make a new one.

133 - You could hold it over your head if you were trying to hide from a satilite.

135. Use it to make modern art! Towel origami, anyone? (there was an article in the paper about towel origami in the paper the other day)

EDIT: On the topic of modern art, I came up with some more. I'd do another post, but I hate to have two posts in a row... so here's 2 more uses for a towel:

136. Twist one end up, and you have a paintbrush.
137. Or if painting isn't your style, flick paint on the canvas with it for a splatter effect.
138. Use it to clean up the mess after doing 137.
139. Heck, you can use the towel as the canvas!

141. In addition, you can use it to hold a rooster-crowing contest...
I swear, they used to hold these at the county fair. You get a bunch of roosters, throw towels over their cages, and at a signal, whip 'em off and count how many times the roosters crow in 5 minutes. 'Twas very fun.

145. Throw it at your cat for some brief but entertaining fun.
