If you could drive one car in the world – any one – what would it be? For me, it’s 007’s Aston Martin. It was introduced to the world in the third Bond film, Goldfinger. Not my favorite of the Sean Connery Bonds, (that distinction goes to From Russia with Love) but certainly one of my favorite Bond moments.
Watch the clip, even Connery salivates over this one – although he’s not inclined to show it.
BOCA RATON, FL (Special to TSD After Dark) Spam. We get a ton of it here at the TSD offices – No, not the canned food product, but SPAM of the unwanted internet junk mail variety. Lately my inbox has been inundated by ads telling me how I need to spice up my love life with either Viagra or Cialis or a host of other male enhancement products. What gets me are the headlines, and more specifically all the lovely pet names for penis – or slang for wanker, if you prefer. Slang for Wanker. I kind of fancy that phrase. Sounds like an indie band.
Anyway, these are some of the actual terms that have come across the transom that refer to said penis:
Device.
Measuring Stick.
Dr. Spank
Flagpole.
Crisis Center.
New York Strip.
and…The Butler.
Some admittedly are sharper than others. But it begs the question, is there any other part of the human anatomy (male or female) that has inspired more pet names?
Imagine it being your job to actually come up with these terms. Imagine sitting in the office and actually hearing your boss say “Smithers (because that’s the only name they use for the put upon guy with the prick for a boss), I want you to rush out all that discount Viagra spam immediately, and while you’re at it, come up with about two dozen names for dick.”
I’d rather play in an indie band called Slang for Wanker.
Back in the 70’s companies like K-Tel made millions by selling compilations on records, 8-tracks, and cassettes. It was quite special. Really. No joking. You could find many of your favorite pop hits on one or two big vinyl discs. Unless of course you got suckered into buying anything from TEJ Records with their “remarkable soundalikes.” Just brutal. Even the commercial from 1974 bit the big one.
Need the perfect compliment to a nice grilled steak or maybe just a good weekend cigar? Do it right with a nice Shiraz. Here’s a little backgrounder on what’s in the bottle.
A few year’s after Twilight Zone’s infamous Talking Tina and several years before the horrific Chucky, there was this – a real, honest to goodness child’s toy from Remco. To see this thing rocking in the corner in the middle of the night just might be the thing that would permanently drive the sane over the brink.
Behold…Baby Laugh A – Lot
Put Up Your Nukes. This treehouse is part of little Brent Jewell's demands.
SHAVERTOWN, PA (Special to TSD After Dark) Brent Jewell, is not your typical bullied twelve year old. He is not plotting a Columbine-like event just because he’s felt the wrath of neighborhood ruffian Bernie Chalker a few times too often. He instead is devising a plan to seize complete control of Chalker’s bedroom, basement fort, and treehouse. Read the rest of this entry »
You don’t have to understand Greek at all. You just have to appreciate a Three Stooges-like moment juiced up for maximum comedic effect. The legendary Greek comic actor Thanasis Veggos lays it on the line with his daughters.
Oily to Rise. Gaga and Bieber will be lowered to the depths at 5:00 A.M.
GULF COAST, FL (Special to TSD After Dark) After several failed attempts to plug the massive hole where nearly 100,000 barrels of oil is spilling into the Gulf of Mexico on a daily basis, the BP Corporation will try a radical new theory which they hope will finally seal the gaping chasm. Current pop icons Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber will be submerged to a depth of nearly 5,000 feet below the ocean surface in an attempt to cut off the flowing oil supply. Read the rest of this entry »

De-Faced. James R. Lyons, the former Facebook employee is weighing his options.
PALO ALTO, CA (Special to TSD AfterDark) James R. Lyons, an employee of the social networking website Facebook, was let go from his position yesterday after it was discovered he was spending what employers call “entirely too much time on Facebook.”
