Something I learned From Dan Savage's Column Today

[furrbear]

While perusing Dan Savage's weekly Advice Column, I got a good laugh at the end:

Dear Dan: RealTouch, the new sex toy for men that you wrote about recently, is a porn-marketing device, not a sex toy. Note that it says on their website that the first "30 minutes [are] free" (translation: You'll have to pay the rest of the time) and that the FAQ says explicitly that it cannot be used by itself. It's a scam, IMO.

Not Buying One

"RealTouch is only activated by the... movies in our video-on-demand library," says Jim McAnally at RealTouch HQ.

Good to know. But many men will be disappointed to learn that they can only use this toy when they're watching porn. Here's hoping that RealTouch 2.0 has more functions.

OK, Is the RealTouch spokesman really named Jeff McANALLY?

I'll wait until someone buys me one, then I'll write linux drivers.

Are you assuming that the principals behind "Challenger, Gray & Christmas" were actually born with those last names?

The point of your non sequitor?

Quite possibly. When I was in grade 2, a family named Christmas, from England, moved into our neighborhood, and their girl was in my class. She had a younger sister named Mary. (Of course, over there, the traditional greeting was "Happy Christmas", so that name wouldn't be consider as unusual as it would be here). I also had a boss surnamed Weinacht (a variant spelling of "Weihnacht", the German word for "Christmas").
