Several weeks ago A. and I were perusing old front pages of the Mirror (a British tabloid for those of you outside the UK), and we found a few that headlined a topic we -- and I imagine a few of you -- find of great interest.This front page is from June 21, 1938. I can't really make out the story (alas, they were not much bigger than thumbnails of the front page), but that headline certainly has a lot of scope for the imagination -- both the birching AND the branding. Though I can't say any of my fantasies have combined the two...at least not yet.
Sorry to make this a short post, but I've been gobsmacked this last week. And watching the Republican Convention last night only made it worse. Good gawd Mitt Romney is a repellent individual. "A man-shaped polymer casing of a spiritual vacuum" in the words of Jon Stewart some months back. Sounds about right. (And no, I'm not a big Barack Obama fan either.)

Given that you were watching, apparently with the sound on, anyway, did you re-test the Miracle Massager? :-)
Would almost be worth it to find that story archive. Terrific headline.
Indy -- He he, I did think of that, and it might not have been so horrific if I had. But I was testing out another toy on Tuesday night that left me too sore and wiped out to wanna do or stick into anything down there. Though I can say that when that toy didn't make me come in the end, I turned to the ever reliable Miracle Massager to finish the job. It's like the most perfect toy for someone like me who is weak and fatigues easily. Easiest orgasm you'll ever have, I tell ya.
Mr. Shiny: Isn't it just? :-)
Unfortunately the Mirror no longer has the link up on their (horribly designed) front page. A. says he may have the link bookmarked somewhere and I'll share that if I get that from him. However, I did save a few front pages from the thirties, which I'll be sharing in the coming weeks, as well as some front pages of some other newspapers we've been looking at.
