Enormous Expanded Raccoon Testicles: Oh My!
2000-10-25 07:38:28
This could only come from the land of the rising sun- a commercial advertising the services of a construction company, featuring a little red riding hood theme. So what's so strange about that? How about dancing forest animals with oversized testicles and mammary glands.
The theme of this commercial is a simple one: Use the services of this company, and your dreams will come true. Apparently, the animals of Japan dream of having huge balls and knockers. But then again, advertising in American advertising usually promises this as well. The only difference being, Japan tends to be more open and up front about it. Who knows? Perhaps the American swill beer companies will take a cue from this. Drink Coors, and your breasts will grow three sizes. Drink bud, and your penis will gain three inches. The possibilities are endless.

During a magnificent sunny day in a fast receding autumn, the Spock Science Monitor reporters once again blew the playa dust off of their computers and covered the 2002 Burning Man Decompression – held every year just east of Portola Hill in beautiful San Francisco. Both an afternoon and evening issues were released to the unsuspecting crowd of freaks attempting to in some small way experience the euphoria of the playa – if but for a brief afternoon far from the desolation of Northern Nevada.

Three Days and 25 Spocktails: A Cautionary Tale
Johnnie Royale picked me up from the dental surgery. I felt warm, safe, cradled in the anathesia's loving embrace. The pharmacy downstairs gave me a bottle of Vicodin and a few instructions: take it with food, don't mix with alcohol, don't operate heavy machinery. I put it in my pocket and we left. "Do you want to go home, or do you want to go to a bar?" asked Johnnie. (More...)
