The Paranormal Power of the Lady Parts
I’ve been off the blog lately due to a move that took forever. We just got the internet hooked up in the new place. I’ll be back with longer posts once I unpack some more stuff, but here’s a quick little bite via Respectful Insolence.
It seems Randy’s million dollars may be claimed by this McSweeney’s author’s paranormal abilities:
Delightfully, I have not only a love for the scientific method but also a demonstrable paranormal skill! I have the ability to control men’s minds with my vagina.
So, is that paranormal…or just normal?

It is funny, but I’m concerned about the nomenclature. I don’t think she actually means “vagina” since that would mean all these men having a view of the inner canal of her lady parts. As awkward as it may be for her to sit nude in front of these men, having them able to see up in there seems to me awkward in the extreme and not really the kind of thing that might entice them to buy her hamburgers. I think she means simply her pubic area, not specifically her vagina.
Didn’t Kylie Sturgess (Podblack Cat) have a rant on this recently? I think it was her discussing the misuse of certain anatomical terms.
But yeah, a funny open letter to James Randi. Has he commented on it yet?

Heh, yes, kind of a rant, but more of a fond reflection on a Mur Lafferty essay that was the most HILARIOUS rant that has ever been written on the subject!
Do check it out, it’s an audio experience not to be missed. http://www.michaelandevo.com/2006/09/05/wingin-it-75/
And to think, with Randi’s most recent revelation about his personal life, I think their vagina is probably even less of interest to him. :p
