NEWPORT BEACH --
Authorities are calling it a case of do-it-yourself male enhancement gone awry.

A local man has been hospitalized after a metal dumbbell ring became stuck on his penis.

The unidentified man was reportedly trying to elongate his organ.

But instead, the ring cut off circulation, causing the organ to swell to five times its normal size and turn black.

The man was hospitalized in Newport Beach.

Keith Jones, deputy fire chief in Costa Mesa, said the ring had been stuck below the belt for as many as three days, and that the man initially resisted treatment.

Jones also said the patient was "obviously having some other issues."

The man, described as middle-aged, eventually relented and allowed city urban rescue experts to remove the ring in a two-hour, ultra-delicate procedure involving a pneumatic chisel that sent sparks flying around the operating room, Jones said.

The man's condition isn't known,
but Jones said it appeared he remained fully intact.

so my corner of the state, and the bordering corner of oregon are very conservative.

very conservative.

a lot of times the letters to the editor can be very vitriolic & hilarious.

for example,

A letter to the editor of the East Oregonian published on September 9:

I was very disappointed that you printed a naked picture in an apparently homosexual setting in the Sunday, Sept. 6 East Oregonian. I immediately ushered the paper to the trash to protect my children. In the future, such things will be cause for canceling our subscription.

I am also disappointed in the coverage of health care issues. It seems that a majority of political cartoons and commentary are for it - where is the balance? When opposition is covered it is done so as if persons opposing are deranged or uninformed. When intelligent, opposing argument is presented, it is couched in obscure positions. Where is your personal responsibility? (This is a critical issue in terms of your own health care and your own families.) Certainly an intelligent and fair addressing of the issue is wise; there is much at stake for all citizens. There are many ways to solve the problems and all options should be examined, not just toting one. This is especially true when closer examination of that option seems to reveal many serious concerns that should be completely worked out before it is considered for the nation.

Certainly you are intelligent enough to see the absolute merit of such an approach. We would like to see a more open, wise approach to the subject. There is no reason to take your paper if it is simply propaganda and not an intelligent discussion.

the healthcare bit aside,
what the heck is this nakey homo picture the newspaper ran?

ready?




are you sure?



brace yourself...













































no. seriously.
that's the picture.

it was used in a story about annie leibovitz's money troubles as well as sean & his girlfriend recreating the classic rolling stone cover.

i guess she was so outraged she couldn't be bothered to actually read what the picture was in reference to.

so six days later the paper printed this letter,

This is in response to the letter by Mariann Adams in the Sept. 9 East Oregonian.

Ms. Adams was disappointed you printed a "naked picture in an apparently homosexual setting."

Ms. Adams stated that when an opposing view is given, the person giving it is covered as "deranged or uninformed." I don't describe her opposition as deranged, but I will go as far as saying it was uninformed. The photo she was referring to, as was clearly stated in the caption, was taken by Annie Leibovitz for the cover of Rolling Stone magazine. No one can definitively argue what is art; beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What can be argued is the apparent homosexual setting. The photo is of a man (John Lennon) and a woman (his wife, Yoko Ono).

People often view things according to the their own values. Perhaps Ms. Adams' pre-existing bias regarding this picture was also present in her opinions in the rest of the letter.

TMZ has confirmed TV pitchman Billy Mays was found dead today in his home in Tampa, Florida.

According to the Tampa PD, Mays was pronounced dead at 7:45 AM.

The 50-year-old was found by his wife early this morning.

TMZ has learned Mays' body has already been removed from his home.

There are reports that Mays had just returned from Philadelphia, where he shot a new Oxiclean commercial.

We're told Mays was at his home around 6pm last night, and according to a source Mays was "acting fine and normal ... he was talking business with his father-in-law."
