Speaking of "Parts" . . . .
Our new improved U.S. Supreme Court strikes again. Methinks Roberts and Alito have been spending too much time with John Asshat Ashcroft - you know, he of "Oh, my goodness, cover up Lady Justice's tits with a blue drape" fame.
The Court today refused to hear an appeal brought by some poor schmuck in El Paso County, Texas (why did you know it was gonna be Texas?) who was convicted of trying to sell a dildo to two undercover officers at - get this - an adult bookstore. (Now I ask you, why would you go into an adult bookstore and assume that they don't want to sell you sex toys?)
Apparently the appeals court had ruled that not being allowed to "promote" so-called "obscene devices" (that's "sex toys" to you and me) does not infringe a person's right to use them in the privacy of his or her home. In other words, you can own them - you just can't have anyone sell them to you so that you can own them in the first place.
Lends a whole new meaning to the term "wankers," no?
