Finding an Affordable Crystal Dildonew
"I only found a couple sites that seemed to carry such a thing and they were in the rather prohibitive range of $600-$1,700. I don't want glass, pretty as those can be; ideally, I'd like one in rose quartz, to maximize the loving vibrations. Maybe there's a Stevie Nicks-endorsed line out there I missed?"

'The Simpsons Ride' is Thrillingnew
About two weeks ago I got word that Universal Studios' highly anticipated successor to their Back to the Future simulator, had quietly soft-opened for "technical rehearsals" in advance of its May 15 grand opening. I headed for the park, dreams of penning the attraction's first published review dancing in my head.

Russell, and we'd all be ooohing and aaahhing over its dark, ironic vision of immigrant life in a world at war with itself. But because Liberty City is a video game, where players are in the driver's seat, so to speak, it freaks people out.
