More Things to Worry About on Wednesday
A super-hot 20-yr-old Italian model is selling her virginity for €1m ($1.42m), and her brother vouches, "She's never had a boyfriend. I swear on my mother's grave" (Bonus: She prays to Padre Pio [at the link, scroll to Update]) . . . . . The U.S. Army just awarded a $4m contract for developing, er, "thought helmets," so commanders can pass along orders silently (but the U.S. is already 26 yrs behind the curve because Clint Eastwood needed to steal that technology from the Soviets in a 1982 movie) . . . . . Of course we're winning the war against gangs in this country, except that, well, we all have to stop wearing rosaries because gang members are wearing them, too . . . . . The Guinness Book people thought it'd be cool to photograph the shortest man in the world alongside the woman with the longest legs.

Ehh, it's kind of a victimless crime, isn't it?

I remember back in the 60s walking the streets of Naples being offered ladies' virginity for a whole lot less than a Million Euros. Must be all that inflation we keep hearing about.

Ya gotta listen to the sales pitch by the Guinness rep at the end of the video (link on same page). They don't want to turn this into a freak show and it's meant to be educational! For those of us old enough to remember the side-shows of carnivals this sounds awfully familiar!

See the chicken woman on the inside just one thin dime, a tenth of a dollar.

The chick in the US that is selling her virginity is setting it up at the Moolight Bunny Ranch in Nevada. Prostitution isn't illegal there! I wonder if I could sell my lack of virginity?

And who thought it would be a good idea to photograph the worlds smallest man between the legs of the woman with the worlds longest legs? I hope she's wearing some kind of undergarments.

You can really only be a Virgin-Hooker once though, a very short career.
*internal monologue: damn why did I think of this 10 years ago?!?*

Sorry, its a bit of a different auction being that, as stated, the virgin thing was done with 10 years ago.
Just out of curiosity, what are we starting the bidding at? My condo needs new windows..........

I'll give you 3 shekels and some gum with a little flavor left in it.

What's a shekel?

Big Gary - the price depends on who's buying and whether "BIG" Gary is an accurate nickname 😛
