I found the segments on smell and especially the one on immediately curing addictions to be pretty intriguing.
Oh...and the teaser at the current commercial segment was for the remote controlled orgasmatron. Why oh why do I think this is just for women and we guys still have to do it the old fashioned way?

By defintion for men to be men they must do things differently than women, otherwise men are not men, they to are women. The location of the identiy of some men can be a fragile place. They cannot cope with the notion that they might find pleasure in the same manner as women. | |

I grew up thinking that men were very strong beings, but have come to find out that men are actually fragile (at least the ones I've been around). Maybe this is a trend that has happened in more recent times. However, it's even more difficult for a male embryo to survive the womb and be born. | |

I grew up thinking that men were very strong beings, but have come to find out that men are actually fragile They were, prior to the Industrial Revolution. But in the first 100 years after dramatically rearranging the role model relationships (the beginning of the IR) the fracture began to grow from a crack to a chasm. And in the last 50 years the rate of acceleration has of this has resulted in the 50% divorce rates...because yeah...they're lack of effective male role models has left us with a huge, fragile, wuss/jerk population of adult males. Much of this is manifested in guys who need to parade macho behavior around to help hide their fragility.
But hey, what would you expect when you transfer role models from working the fields/ranch/boat/etc for boys to having them spend their days with mom and the sisters. One of the problems of not having good role models is that adult males aren't stepping up to being men (first) and fathers (second). Way too many guys think its OK to fracture and destroy relationships thinking that being a man is about being a good father...they kinda forget that they too made commitments they're now breaking...and that's the first and most memorable thing their son sees, so their son begins to believe he doesn't have to be true...honest...real...with is g/f.

Oh...and the teaser at the current commercial segment was for the remote controlled orgasmatron. Why oh why do I think this is just for women and we guys still have to do it the old fashioned way?
I was trying to remember if a man was in the orgasmatron in Woody Allen's movie, Sleeper, and found that there was a man in there as well.
I found an article written in 2004 where doctors invented a spinal cord stimulator for chronic pain which had a certain side effect. Here's what they said:
"When we turned on the power in this case, she let out a moan and began hyperventilating," Meloy said on ABC News' Good Morning America. "Of course we cut the power and I looked around the drapes and asked her what was going on. Once she caught her breath, she said 'you're gonna have to teach my husband how to do that!' "
I don't know if it would work the same for men, but since both men and women have spinal cords, it would seem logical. Seems there really is an "orgasmatron." | |

Hands, hands, fingers, thumb dum-ditty, dum-ditty, dumb, dumb dumb?
Here's the truth:
Early in the days of the Garden of Eden a voice from above proclaimed to Eve and Adam that she had two gifts-one for each of them-stating that the first was the ability to stand while voiding. Adam immediately stated that he wanted that one. The voice proclaimed that his demand was granted and informed Eve that she was stuck with multiple orgasms.  | |
