Find out in “Napoleon’s Privates: 2,500 Years of History Unzipped” by Tony Perrottet
As I a teenager, I wasn’t too crazy about history, because I thought “history” meant copying down the dates my surly, alcoholic 8th grade teacher wrote on the blackboard, and then forgetting them at exam time. If only he had possessed the insight to engage our perverted, pubescent minds with the more intriguing, human aspects of history. Like, Napoleons’s penis, for instance. In the words of Tony Perrottet, author of Napoleon’s Privates: 2,500 Years of History Unzipped
Happy Birthday, George

Your hecklers would like to thank you for supporting free speech.
Dick Cheney’s favorite sock puppet, George W. Bush, was apparently drowned out by hecklers as he spoke at the swearing-in of 72 new citizens at Monticello on July 4. The LA Times on line has a nice summary here, with videos of both the hecklers in the crowd and a more conventional view of bush speaking at the podium. Poor George. And right before his birthday too. Always quick on his feet, Bush ironically reminded the crowd that America believes in free speech while the Secret Service and security clamped down on the hecklers.
Return of the Unknown Comic Strip

Help me name my political comic strip, and I’ll include you in an episode.
In 2004, I worked on a political comic strip for a while. I’ve decided to revive it, so I’ll be posting some of the old strips. Problem: I never came up with a name that I liked, so I never promoted it. Help me out.
Name That Comic

Help name my comic strip and be immortalized in graphic design. I’ll include your likeness in the strip.

A REALLY Bad Idea

There are some things you just don’t want to use after someone else has.
If you’re easily offended by the topic of recreational sex, stop reading. Also stop reading if you’re even moderately rational. I just want to be on record as saying that I think a dildo rental service is a BAD IDEA. A bad, bad, bad idea. However, the site is well designed; their FAQ page immediately addresses important questions like “Do you include batteries?” and “What about lube?” And boy, am I ever glad I clicked the “NOTICE TO CUSTOMERS” link. How else would I have found out that on September 27, 2005 they stopped lending anal sex toys to customers. On the bright side, if you had one of these types of rental toys at the time, you were invited to keep it without charge as a “courtesy accommodation”. Yech. So, one last thing. Can someone please tell me what a “rabbit vibrator” is?
