While researching the history of mechanical massagers (There, is that better, Bob?)I came across the term, "female paroxysm" as an archaic euphamism for orgasm. I'd always thought of a paroxysm as an ailment, or perhaps metaphorically a positive thing, as in a paroxysm of laughter. I've not even seen the word in print for a decade, so I'm wondering whether it's now considered obsolete. Is it still used medically?

First, you knead a dill dough --------------------------------- Many years ago a radio announcer, advertising a tonic, intended to ask, "Ladies does your husband wake up dull and listless?" but in fine Spoonerism fashion, he asked, "...Does your husband wake up dill and lustless?" Ah, good old live broadcasts, or broads cast, or...

I firmly believe it was right, some 150 years ago, for the North to battle the South in order to preserve the union. That having been said, however, I do also strongly suspect that we might be better off kicking out individual states.
(Maybe we could claim knowledge of weapons of mass destruction?)

I understand the curved dildo was invented by Ima G. Spott.
I thought the funniest part was that if you owned five dildos, you were home free. Of course, my lawyerly husband explained that perhaps they thought with six there was an intent to distribute!
I have 2 business trips planned to Texas this fall. I think I'll bring 6 dildos with me just to have a little excitement (with the law, that is!) I wonder what our unpredicatable Supreme Court justices would do with this one!
Since you are a medcical professional, you'll have no problem. Remember, the vibrator was invented to relieve hysteria in women. Or you could just tell them good ol' boys how they's seismograph testing devices to calibrate the machines used in oil exploration.
I went to the Texas stand at the World Travel Market and was accosted by a large man in a large hat who offered me a (small) glass of beer. I told him that I didn't care for American beer.
"This ain't American beer", he said, This here's Texan beer!"
So I drunk it.
Horrible, fizzy, tasteless, yellow, weak, chemical muck - just like almost all American beers once were!
It was a good job it was a US-sized glass and not a UK-sized one so I didn't have so much to force down!

I just read that the penalty for first-time offenders for distributing in Georgia is $10,000 and a year in jail or hard labor. No, not for distributing drugs, but for distributing vibrators or dildos!
The same article said that fornication - sex between unmarried couples - was still illegal in Idaho, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia and Washington, D.C. The penalty can be up to $300 and 6 months in jail in Idaho.
Idaho, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia and Washington, D.C. ____________________________________________ So how cum they got them there condom machines in so many of their rest rooms? Entrapment of more than your bodily fluids, perhaps?

I doubt five or fewer would leave you "home free." My bet is that it would simply be a misdemeanor rather than a felony.
it would simply be a misdemeanor ____________________________________________ It would make the miss de happier, but since rednecks don't like happy women, it's illegal.

You "drunk" it, did you? Is that a Britishism or is that possibly the beer speaking? (This isn't sarcasm on my part [well, not much, anyway] since over here we would say "I drank it" and, possibly, became drunk as a result.)
Tinman sites the Capiton Hill Blue article by D. Murdock: Under Massachusetts law, an unmarried heterosexual couple that "commits fornication shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than three months or by a fine of not more than thirty dollars." If the same man and women left Boston and slept together in Boise, they could face "a fine of not more than $300 or imprisonment for not more than six (6) months" under Idaho law.
Hmmm... Somewhere between Boston and Boise our intrepid boy started banging a bevy of babes, not just one, thus adding polygamy to his "crimes"!
Just wondering what Kalleh got for her birthday from shu. _______________________ I heard it was prophylactics stuffed with breath fresheners, to be used to enliven main dishes. You know, condom-mints.
Apart, of course, from the sexual discrimination implicit in this term, is there not also a danger that anyone called Bob will have his emails thrown out by the net ninny-nanny?
