His classic book was a favorite of mine when I was in my teens also! lol
Have you seen the Japanese equivalent to this book? Nowhere as exciting
graphically. They use stick figures! But it is standard practice to give it
to newlyweds over there. I'm sure they have much more 'appealling' sex
guides but that is the bestseller.
I was saddened to hear Charles Schultz died. Some might say, "just a
cartoonist" but I loved _Peanuts_ very much. Over the next thirty years or
so until longevity tech really improves we will be losing alot of people.
I do look forward to Saddam Hussein dying after having read an indepth
article on the horrors he has inflicted on his own people. Seizing the
wives of other men and then sometimes killing both the husband and wife
later on is just one of his twisted personal habits. But his sons will
probably carry on in similar fashion. At least the older one who is a chip
off the old block.
sincerely,
John Grigg
