Gah. I've somehow been roped into going out for dinner tonight with my boss and some work people. How much do I not want to do this? Feh.

I am bailing on the blues club afterwards, no matter how cool it is supposed to be. (And it is, Kingston Mines. But just no.)

I put Old Bay on my popcorn.

And have been known to try other things. Soy sauce sounds interesting.

Popcorn hurts my mouth.

I need to take some comp time for working last weekend.

Now I want popcorn. I think I have some microwave kettle corn in the pantry...

I am feeling a compulsion to buy gourmet popcorn. It's something I do fancy I can taste the difference with, and is worth it. But I have most of a bottle of Pop Secret to make it through.

Man, when I was on different meds I could plow through half a cup of kernel's worth of popped corn in a sitting. Not so much anymore, no matter how hungry I am.

I like Bacon Salt on my popcorn, but non-liquid toppings never really seem to stick.

Live sex toy demonstration held on NU campus

Northwestern University acknowledged today that an unusual demonstration was held on campus last week in which students observed a naked woman being penetrated by a sex toy.

The sex act was performed in front of about 100 students in psychology professor John Michael Bailey’s human sexuality class. The demonstration occurred after class, and attendance was optional.

The university will pay several hundred dollars to guest lecturer Ken Melvoin-Berg, co-owner of Weird Chicago Tours. His Feb. 21 discussion of bondage, swinging and other sexual fetishes was arranged by Bailey, who gets extra funding from the university’s College of Arts & Sciences for lectures and other activities he routinely holds after class.

...

The woman undressed and got on stage with her male partner, who used a device that looks like a machine-powered saw with a phallic object instead of a blade. Melvoin-Berg said the couple are exhibitionists who enjoy having people watch them have sex, and they were not paid for the demonstration.

“It is probably something I will remember for the rest of my life. I can’t say that about my Econ 202 class and the material that I learned there,” said Northwestern senior Justin Smith. Smith, 21, said students were told there would be a “sex tour operator” speaking about fetishes after class, but they didn’t initially know there would be a live demonstration.

...

An Evanston police department spokesman said Northwestern police would be responsible for determining whether the demonstration violated any local ordinances. University spokesman Alan Cubbage said “the issue has not been raised,” and nobody had filed a complaint with the police department.

Huh.

Sounds like the Econ professors need to step up their game.

Heh. Not sure how. Maybe an invisible hand job?

Not sure how they could beat that. A mecha-dildo trumps even a donkey, and doesn't shit on the floor.
