Just got this on the news and couldn't resist. Another woman has been arrested in Somerset, NJ (ya gotta love this state, don't ya!) for attempting to cut off her husband's you-know-what with a large kitchen knife. She claims he did it to himself so he could accuse her of doing it???? But I don't think that'll ever stand-up in court! (And, hey mav, Somerset County, you got outta dere just in time, mate!)

Meanwhile...LOL!...they reported that the man works as a meat slicer at the local Shop-Rite supermarket! oh, I can't take it!.....who scripted this, anyway!?

Well, maybe we'll add another new word or two to the language out of this one when all is said and done...
so there you are, more bobbittry from the fine state of New Jersey!

Detail, please. You've got to be kidding! Well, okay then...I believe they said it was a 1/2 inch cut, she (or he) didn't quite get it, while he was sleeping. A rude awakening! Now, whether a 1/2 inch wound seriously impaired the gentleman or not, I don't know.

Connie, after posting those pictures you better stay out of this conversation!

Well, I saw it through Picasso's eyes. I said it before, I haven't lost any to frostbite, so why would I bobbitize? I wouldn't dream of harming a hair.........well, you know the rest of that saying.

A limp lingam would be hard to cut.

Reminds me of the Bobbitt joke - a stales' favourite...

Lorena's just done the deed..

Runs screaming from the room clutching knife and severed member

Jumps in her car (still clutching things), roars off down the road.

Realises what she'd got in her hand, screams and throws it out the window.

Member bounces off the windscreen of a passing car...

Driver of other car expostulates "Jeeez - didja see the size of the dick on that bug!!!"

ahem

stales

my favorite was about how Bobbitt wanted to change his name after the attach-- he didn't want to always be associated with Bobbitt..

So he is changed it to Les Johnson..but that name didn't work for him, so now he is Willy Dunnin?

He may have been cosmetically restored, but still denied power of consummation, his potentia coeundi permanently cut off.

In checking my Latin, I found this, which amused me:

Ficken Ohne Ende:
Die Fähigkeit des Mannes zum Vollzug des Koitus. Außer von einer potentia coeundi,
spricht man auch von einer potentia generandi, der Zeugungsfährigkeit. ...

Amusing Latin indeed, Bill. Couldn't find "Zeugungsfährigkeit" in my Latin-English dictionary, though. Must get a better one.

I believe the technically correct term is bobtailed bartleby: bobtail: 2. An animal, such as a horse, having a short or shortened tail. 3. Something that has been cut short or abbreviated, although some might agrue for dismembered.

Dear CK: It seems to me that there are two quite contradictory translations of "Ficken Ohne Ende".
The most probable one I would not be cruel enough to wish to be your lot, but the second possible one might appeal to you. Strenuous, though.

Would have thought that demembered would be the most appropriate usage in this case ...

Dear Bill, I fear you missed my point.

I understand that during the Cold War the Gehlen Bureau used the term "um die Ecke bringen" to describe the permanent removal of nuisances. I have this little list.

I have it on good authority that the police were stumped as to what exactly to charge Lorena with. They finally settled on littering.

They police could have called it performing surgery without a license.

Ahhhh, there is a short video to be watched but when I clicked on it a box came up asking me if I wanted to install some quick time thingy (as an aside, quick time is not what us ladies want, let me tell ya) and you know I have no clue about that computer installation stuff.

Dag nabbit, what's on the video? Anything worth watching?? Not sure my hubby would appreciate my waking him up to install something that will let me watch a penile enlargement video, understanding though he may be.

You'll need something to watch that video. The link sure don't work! She said with a wink!

I didn't see anything about a video. And if there were a video, it wouldn't be worth the bother. Just a new way of separating idiots from their money. The only spam that annoys me more is the porn.

"Quick Time ActiveX Plugin" Sure sounds like a penile enhancement kit to me! But, seriously, I have no idea if it is recommended to install this on anything but an Apple computer. Jazzo? AnnaStrophic? No video for me.

Spam, Dr. Bill? I got it off one of those TV drug commercials, so it must have FDA approval (dunno if it's prescription or over-the-counter). Suffragium asotas...you just pop a pill, and "hey!"...I wish it were my product to market, though. As P.T. Barnum once said, "There's a sucker born every minute." Oops, wait...let me rephrase that...

The video's there alright but it ain't porn. Just a cheesy afternoon soap-style film with a spanish guitar and some washed-up actor telling you how you can 'enhance your lurv' with a capsule a day. Save your internet pocket-money by avoiding this overblown site. It's not worth it!
