Lane Bryant’s “racy” ad goes viral – YES!

I don’t care why this Lane Bryant commercial is everywhere, I’m just having fun watching dudes drool over the lovely lady in the commercial.

And what’s wrong with ABC and Fox? I’m cool with this. Can anyone explain why this commercial is too racy for TV?

I have it on good authority (ok, ok, Associated Press) that LeBron James has just pulled off a second MVP in a row! Go LeBron!

Approved “vaccine” for prostate cancer

I was really excited when I saw this article about a vaccine for prostate cancer, because who doesn’t want to avoid getting sick? And avoid cancer even more?! And prostate cancer just sounds…. Well, I tip my hat to you gentlemen who have had it. Doesn’t sound like fun.

But after reading the article, in which it’s claimed, “Clinical trials showed that the treatment extended the lives of patients by four months.”, I was less than ready to sign up. Is that really a “vaccine”? Sounds like more testing and development are in order.

Porn: A technological leader

I think rather than being surprised at this, we should be chalking this up to human nature. We humans were made with reproduction being the purpose of our existence, so we should be less-than-shocked to see that our intense interest in carnal matters leads us to make porn a part of every section of our lives.

Now this is a true Hometown Hero!

By now, we’re sure you’ve heard about Jay Thunderbolt, a Detroit man who got fed up with the lame excuses for strippers and call girls in his area ($225 for 3 songs?), and decided to start his own strip club – in his house.

You know….it sounds surprisingly easy. Anyone up for trying it out and letting me know how it goes?

Face transplants – up close and personal

We’ve just come one step closer to making a reality of the classic 1997 film Face/Off.

With Spain’s first successful full face transplant, including bone, cartilage, teeth, and lips, Nic Cage could take over the world any minute.

Think you’re better off being a bachelor? Bringing in the ladies and then seeing them out the door the next morning, yeeeeah. Well, before you go buy that automatic mood lightslashsexy tunes player, read this article (pages 3-4 are the best) detailing the health benefits (and negatives) of marriage.

And because you and I both know that marriage to the wrong person is worse than being single, check out this list of questions to ask about your partner before diving in.

What is Sex Addiction?

mark — Fri, 09 Apr 2010 16:45:09 +0000

We’ve heard so much about it lately – so many celebs are seen checking into sex rehab that it almost seems like there should be a Foursquare app for it. But what IS sex addiction?

Here are some articles that detail what it is, how it was discovered (ha!), and the truth behind it.

The best article I’ve read – this Mercury News article on the validity of sex addiction is informational without being boring. You’ll read ’til the end.

This Slate article’s title seems strange, as it barely defends Tiger, and makes no mention of feminists. But it’s interesting nonetheless.

Women struggle with sex addiction too!

Want a bulleted list or two? MedicineNet.com gives you sexual addiction behaviors and treatments with no BS.

Last, but not least: Sex Addicts Anonymous.

Tiger Woods’ Nike commercial – let’s just say it already

mark — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 20:30:13 +0000

With Tiger Woods returning to golf today in Augusta, it looks like Nike is giving a big push to the former multi-sponsor golden boy in the form of a commercial; a contrite-looking Tigey-poo listening to the voice(over) of his deceased father, Earl.

And the commercial is getting buzz. A lot of it. But here’s the thing: Every blog, news outlet, and article is saying, “Maybe this is ‘PR BS’…or maybe it’s true growth on Tiger’s part – WHAT DO YOU THINK?”

HELLO!? Why are we even asking this question? Are we trying to seem open-minded, politically correct, or acknowledging that to err is human? News flash: This is straight BS, created to make money. That’s it. Feel free to comment, but my mind is made up.

Duke v. Butler – Cinderella story or straight throw down

mark — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 17:04:19 +0000

By all appearances, all the hype surrounding tonight’s showdown between the Titled “Dukes” and the Workingman “Butlers” looks like it would have the makings of a 2010 version of Hoosiers, as many have noted. But before you subscribe to all this hooey, take a deeper look at whether Butler and Duke really deserve the stereotyped Hoosiers roles they’ve been cast into.

Weigh in! Who are you betting on to win tonight, Coach K or Brad Stevens?

Now, this is a Cinderella story!
