Hmmm. I’ve got a question… Which do you prefer? The Wii or the PS3?
Now don’t jump to conclusions or anything. You should probably take your time and enjoy a Choco Party while you’re thinking.

In 1946, Walt Disney produced an animated film called “The Story of Menstruation“. At the time, Disney was hurting for cash because World War II killed the European market, which cut off a significant source of Disney’s revenues. At home “Fantasia” was a major commercial failure, draining more money from the company treasury. Disney was in desperate need of new funds, so he began to take for-hire assignments.
During this time, Disney opted to take a commission from the International Cello-Cotton Company for an educational film designed to be shown in health education classes. What resulted was “The Story of Menstruation,” a 10-minute animated film covering an area where Disney’s films never went before. Indeed, “The Story of Menstruation” is the first film which uses the word “vagina” (both in the narration and in an on-screen demonstration).

He, he, he. Hmmm. I like chocolate. I like partys. I guess I just never realized how much I like it when you put them both together!
You know, over in Japan they don’t even try to hide the sexual overtones in their advertising. They just put it out there for everyone to gawk at! That’s right, it’s hanging there, bouncing around, for the whole world to see!

I keep wondering two things, why does the RIAA continue to persecute people, and more importantly why do people do stupid enough things to keep getting prosecuted?
That organization exists for the sole purpose of suing the pants off of people, but they can only do so when people leave plenty of evidence about their activity - namely hosting content on their computers and allowing others to download it. Most of the time it seems these foolish people aren’t even aware that what they are doing by running Kazaa, eMule, Gnutella, or some other file sharing application puts them at risk.
But why in the world would anyone share their music, movie or software collections via open, anonymous connections? Especially when there are other virtually risk-free alternatives? (By the way, know your rights if RIAA comes calling.)

Ok, I know what you’re thinking. The answer to this question is soo obvious… But you’d be wrong!
A paper published to the Web in July 2007 by two University of Texas psychologists, Cindy M. Meston and David M. Buss, entitled Why Humans Have Sex lists 237 distinct reasons! And they run the whole gamut of human emotions ranging from altruistic (‘‘I wanted the person to feel good about himself/herself’’) to vengeful (‘‘I wanted to get back at my partner for having cheated on me”).

First of all, NO… my blog is not digressing into another porn site! Actually it’s sad, but I really debated about reporting this because nudity is involved. But I decided that it was for the common good and that the vast majority of my readers would probably appreciate the link…
The popular women’s magazine Jane has launched a Breast Health Guide, and a related Boob Blog called Show Us Yours!
The blog encourages regular women to send in a photo of their own breasts and a description about what they like about them. A LOT of women have taken up the challenge and they range from small to very, very large, and also including brave women with mastectomys, the site proves that boobs come in all shapes and sizes and that the most important thing is not what they look like, but that you are loved for who you are.

There are a lot of people out there right now hoping for some good hard evidence (no pun intended) linking sexual activity with long life. Well, if this article doesn’t convince you, I don’t know what will.
Before we get started though, it should first be stated that the benefits derived from sexual activity are more than offset by the risks associated with a promiscuous lifestyle.
That is to say that researchers almost universally agree that a healthy sex life is normally only beneficial in terms of monogamous relationships. Studies have shown that a promiscuous lifestyle can increase risks of disease by 40% due to increased risk of STDs.

Google has a cool little item in the Google Labs which allows you to compare the frequency of different search terms. For example, if you want to see which term is more frequently searched for between Sex and Drugs, you can.
Or, if you want to find out who is more popular, Pamela Anderson or George Bush, you can do that too.
Also of note, the results tell you where in the world those terms are most searched for.
