MISSING STRAP ON !!!!!

On Halloween night's Fetish Ball show , somebody walked off with our 2 foot, flesh colored strap-on at the end of the night (at the Note in Chicago). If you should see it walking down the street, you are being alerted to call the authorities immediately. Do not approach as it has been known to be armed and dangerous.

Seriously though, if somebody has it, get back to us as it has been our mascot and a "member" of the band for the better part of 3 years. Our dancers are beside themselves with grief and are beyond consoling.

Thanks in advance.

Keep us in your thoughts,
JaGoFF

"Mice have been placed in a state of near suspended animation, raising the possibility that hibernation could one day be induced in humans... If so, it might be possible to put astronauts into hibernation-like states for long-haul space flights - as often depicted in science fiction films." Read more here.

"Florida Gov. Jeb Bush signed a new anti-crime law on Tuesday that allows people to kill in self-defense without first trying to flee.... The new law expands that doctrine to include people in public places who feel threatened and could be subject to death or great bodily harm." Read more here.

Download crap and go to prison

Ahhh, "The Family Entertainment and Copyright Act"...

Gotta love a title that makes you feel all warm inside. Unfortunately, that warmth you feel inside of you maybe a little bit closer to prison love - if you share as little as one copyrighted song, movie or software thru a shared folder you "could be subjected to prison terms and fines of up to three years. Penalties would apply regardless of whether that file was downloaded or not." President Bush just signed it into law on Wednesday. Read more here.

It is all about the family or lack thereof...

From FlashNews "On May 4, the Epicenter Gallery in San Francisco will become the site of the world’s first "Whore College", to teach wannabe working girls and guys the ins and outs of prostitution" the founder's rational is that "there’s been a big demand for sex worker studies ever since the dot com bust of the late 1990s caused many Silicon Valley employees to become sex workers instead."

Topics include "Do-It- Yourself Web Cam" and other handy subjects. One look around some of the MySpace profiles and that does not seem too far out of touch.

What Are You Thinking Right Now?

From the BBC: "Scientists say they can read a person's unconscious thoughts using a simple brain scan."

You have the right to remain silent, not that it will do you any good...

Practice What You Preach

Studies reveal that 90 percent of all divorced born-again Christians divorced after they had accepted Christ. Evangelical Author and Activist Ron Sider examines the broken links between belief and practice for Christians—including sexual promiscuity, hedonism, materialism, racism, divorce, egotism, and physical abuse in marriage in his new book. Divorce rates and sexual promiscuity among evangelicals contradict a political pro-family stand, while a general moral failure contradicts evangelicals commitment to “moral values” compared to the rest of so-called “corrupt culture.”

NO SEX TOYS FOR YOU

Here is an interesting bit of news:

"The U.S. Supreme Court rejected on Tuesday a constitutional challenge to an Alabama law that makes it a crime to sell sex toys... First-time violators can face a fine of up to $10,000 and as much as one year in jail."

Interestingly enough "It exempted sales of sexual devices "for a bona fide medical, scientific, educational, legislative or judicial purpose."

What the hell is a "legislative, judical or law enforcement" sex toy???

Now where did that stash go?

If you are not so worried about your short-term memory but want to preserve what you have left of the long-term, this article from the BBC may be of interest to you:

"The active ingredient in marijuana may stall decline from Alzheimer's disease, research suggests." the article goes on... "Scientists showed a synthetic version of the compound may reduce inflammation associated with Alzheimer's and thus help to prevent mental decline."

Now where did that stash go?

Donating your body for fuel

Here is an interesting article that discusses the conversion of carbon-based life forms [basically all living things] into fuel.

"If a 175-pound man fell into one end , he would come out the other end as 38 pounds of oil, 7 pounds of gas, and 7 pounds of minerals, as well as 123 pounds of sterilized water."

Let the cloning begin.

Masterbating in the 1st degree

From USA Today: "Jurors and others in Judge Donald Thompson's courtroom kept hearing a strange whooshing noise, like a bicycle pump or maybe a blood pressure cuff.... The explanation, investigators say, is even stranger than some imagined: The judge had a habit of masturbating with a penis pump under his robe during trials."

"No child left behind" or "How I learned to hate the First Amendment."

While this news is a day or two old, it is none the less, pretty frightening to say the least:

From the AP: "The way many high school students see it, government censorship of newspapers may not be a bad thing..."

Who needs the 1st Amendment when you have a remote control, reality programs and herpes commercials.

"No child left behind" or "How I learned to hate the First Amendment."

Is that a banana in your pocket?

In a new study, it turns out that male monkeys WILL PAY to see pix of hot monkey ass.

Just one more argument against those looking to debunk the theory of evolution!

What in Sam Hell are they thinking????

This is a bit of a scary one to say the least.

According to this article at Nationl Geographic, some scientists have created a hybrid creature that is part human and part animal.

The Island of Doctor Moreau will be a reality tv series sooner than you think.

Jesus Would Be Proud

You will all be able to sleep better knowing that (according to these two reports) "Christian Conservative" groups have just recently issued a "gay warning" over a video starring SpongeBob SquarePants and others cartoon characters.

The word of God to be sure - Jesus would be proud.

A decade of MONSTER BONG HITS

Considering that all we are presently built on are memories from our past, here is some food for thought:

This article, from the Scientific American, explores the brain's conversion from short to long term memory. This is worth reading if you want to want to attempt to counter the past decade's worth of pulling monster bong hits.

Huh? Wait. What were we just saying?

Entertaining lewd & lustful thoughts

You will be happy to know that while you were sleeping, a US court struck down a federal obscenity statute. This literally means that "entertaining lewd & lustful thoughts" by "consenting adults" is still legal. You can breath a sigh of relief as it is, once again, safe to put your mind back in the gutter.
