For those of you interested in unusual animal penises and researcher assisted animal masturbation for science, check out this SciCurious piece about the penises of Echidnas, aka Spiny Ant Eaters, and their function (newly discovered). Fun fact, they have 4 headed penises with interesting functions. Photos and video are actually included in the linked article. Maybe NSFW.

C'mon what is this, a full day with no posts, here at the longest thread.

Well, I had a very rewarding audition today.

by **JJM** on Sun Jan 27, 2013 10:06 pm

You got in the Comedy contest.

by **jonesthecurl** on Sun Jan 27, 2013 10:09 pm

No, this is something else. Lots of things are looking good right now.

by **JJM** on Sun Jan 27, 2013 10:27 pm

So what was the audition for?

by **jonesthecurl** on Sun Jan 27, 2013 10:35 pm

A bunch of things, working together with a cult horror film legend (so I hear, I've not seen the films myself yet) - Bev Bonner, who played "casey" in Basket Case
Personally I never heard of her, but she's been in the entertainment industry since at least the early 80's.

by **JJM** on Sun Jan 27, 2013 10:50 pm

So you will be in a play?

by **jonesthecurl** on Sun Jan 27, 2013 10:55 pm

Yes, and some ongoing comedy shows if all works out.

So you are performing with her?

Here's something about the play when performed in Michigan.

We're talking about doing a lot of other stuff too.

by **JJM** on Sun Jan 27, 2013 11:17 pm

So it is a follow up to her play from 30 years ago.

by **jonesthecurl** on Sun Jan 27, 2013 11:18 pm

No, it's a play that is a follow up to her movie from 30 years ago. One of a series I think.

by **JJM** on Sun Jan 27, 2013 11:20 pm

Cool. Was she the lead actress in that film?

by **jonesthecurl** on Sun Jan 27, 2013 11:24 pm

I haven't seen it. I guess I really need to now.
As I understand it, the character wasn't the lead, but was popular enough to appear in at least one sequel and in some other movies unrelated to the original (but still horror) - very much a cult figure rather than mainstream.
I guess i'll be learning more about this.

by **JJM** on Sun Jan 27, 2013 11:26 pm

How about your character?

by **jonesthecurl** on Mon Jan 28, 2013 12:17 am

Don't know that yet.

This just in, Iranian state television said on Monday that the country’s scientists had succeeded in sending a monkey into space "as a prelude to sending humans." The state news agency, IRNA, said the monkey was sent into space on a Kavoshgar rocket that reached a height of 75 miles and "returned its shipment intact," Reuters reported. The monkey survived, according to Press TV, the state run satellite broadcaster.

While I, and many monkeys would like to go to space, we'd like to go so willingly on our own accord, and my sources say this monkey was not given a choice.

He'll have a pretty good story to tell his grandchildren about.

You know what I just remember from the past? Candy cigarettes. I use to always get them when I was younger. But I never started smoking. Hm.

Who is everyone at the longest thread choosing to win the superbowl?

by **muy_thaiguy** on Wed Jan 30, 2013 3:09 am

Truth be told, don't care. Not really a fan of the Ravens, and I have family that are near obsessed with Colin Kapernick (they live in Fallon, NV, 60 miles from Reno where Kapernick was QB).
