Hustler publisher Larry Flynt

Larry Flynt is (or was) suing his nephew because apparently the nephew is making sub-standard porn and ruining the Flynt name.

No, really.

Clearly, the lesson here is that teens in large rural states have no other way to fill their time than by having unprotected sex.

Yes. Especially when they've been taught that condoms are not effective.

Abstinence education can work just fine, we just need to tweak the program. First, remove all sexual references from TV, Music, Videogames, Books, etc... so teenagers think about sex less. Second, require concealing school uniforms and segregate classes by gender. Third, strict curfew laws prohibiting teenagers from going out unaccompanied after dark, well to not get too draconian we can just make it teenage girls. Forth, make sure that any teenagers who somehow get pregnant wear badges at all times to discourage sexual activity through public shame.

There we go, four simple steps toward a better America without having to lower our moral standards.

I think if you want Obama to look like Obama you probably need an artist who can make people look like human beings. Unless Spider-Man is now set in an AU where people's jaws are attached differently and we have double-joined wrists.

Is it just me, or is this funny and cool? Whopper Sacrifice, Burger King's Facebook Promotion: Delete 10 Friends For Free Whopper

Burger King has created an application for Facebook that allows users to delete 10 friends in exchange for a free Whopper.

Taking Klondike's "What would you do for a Klondike Bar?" motif to the next level, Burger King invites Facebook users to sacrifice 10 of their friends on the social networking site for a coupon for a free sandwich:

"What would you do for a free WHOPPPER? Now is the time to put your fair-weather web friendships to the test. Install WHOPPER Sacrifice on your Facebook profile, and we'll reward you with a free flame-broiled WHOPPER when you sacrifice 10 of your friends."

Third, strict curfew laws prohibiting teenagers from going out unaccompanied after dark, well to not get too draconian we can just make it teenage girls.

Actually, I'm pretty sure more teen pregnancies happen between 3 and 6 pm....

Curfews can be adjusted.

As a teen, I went to a coed Christian evangelical camp for one week. During that week, three of my friends became pregnant at 15. One had an abortion and two married the guys right away and had their babies. Surprisingly, the one I am still in contact with is still happily married to the same person!

But my point is that you can preach all you want, but hormones are hormones. And it sure seems that abstinence education ends up actually pushing kids to try sex (possibly because it's so exotic and "dangerous") and get pregnant than does teaching about contraception and demystifying the whole thing.

Huh, I told both my teenage boys not to have sex until they were married or 35, whichever came first. They agreed. They said they wouldn't do drugs either. I gave them a pass on rock and roll.

Also: I couldn't stand that co-ed camp and managed to get sent home early because I walked out of the chapel when the (woman) speaker told us that girls shouldn't grow up and be doctors, we should grow up and marry doctors and make babies for them. Yeah.

I happily attended and worked at an all-girls Christian camp throughout my childhood and teenagehood. It was so much easier to have fun without hormones and boys getting in the way. ;)
