Highly Scientific Study Shows That Celebrities Show More Skin Than Ever

How much more are we seeing of Missy Elliot now than we did of Carrie Fischer in the 70's? Hold onto your socks…59%, people! And we don't mean mass, we mean nekkid factor! Apparently since the 70's, you know, when people were total prudes, they'd walk the red carpet with only 7% skin showing.

But when Liz Hurley accompanied Hugh Grant to the premier of "Four Weddings and a Funeral" wearing a hot safety-pinned Versace number, she blew that statistic all to hell. It is this movie premiere which is said to have garnered her the movie role offers and Estee Lauder account she now boasts (I guess talent and drive were not considered factors by Hollywood.). And today, everyone has followed suit (or lack thereof) to catch that same ride to stardom. Now apparently, if trends continue, our celebs of the future will be buck nekkid on the red carpet by 2010. Let's pray Michael Moore has retired quietly before that time.

History of Porn 101

Just last week I managed to catch an hour long documentary on the man himself, Ron Jeremy. I learned that Ron is inwardly shy and a super nice guy, how he got into the business and that he ultimately just wants to be a regular actor. This is as about as likely as Madonna leaving her hubby for William Hung, but there is that small possibility.

The next step toward porn going mainstream is the new documentary on the making of Deep Throat, entitled "Inside Deep Throat." (Ummmm…ew?) This February-airing documentary will take you into the 1972 picture's "social impact" and "cultural legacy." Well good, because as far as I'm concerned, it's a popular title thanks to Dick Nixon's naughtiness in the White House and the humorous naming of Woodward and Bernstein's anonymous lead. Oh, well that and Traci Lords did move on to have somewhat of an acting career. At least she's cute. Sorry, Ron.

No Making Sauce on the Mountain!

Crimeny! These people keep climbing Mount Everest and having sex at the base camp, and this really torks off Professor Ralph Pettman. The Sherpas are pretty ticked too, since this is a sacred mountain to them.

"For them, it's a very sacred mountain, but people treat it in unsacred ways," Pettman said.

So far, Pettman has received $2000 in funding from Victoria University to create a website to unite international support for this endeavor. Apparently a sign that says "No Having Sex Here" just wouldn't cut the mustard.

He said having sex - known as "making sauce" to Sherpas - was as much a desecration of the sacred mountain as garbage and pollution. "It's very much an issue of an ongoing problem which is really not recognized. Just because (these issues are) not material doesn't make them less important."

John McKinnon, a Footprints Tours guide who has been traveling to Nepal since the 1960s and lived there for two years, said he was astonished at the proposals. He doubted Sherpas were offended by tourists having sex.

"I find that claim rather questionable. Sherpas have a very raunchy sense of humor," he said.

Wellington teacher Eileen Thwaites, who climbed to Base Camp in 1998, said "Honestly, it's just so high up there, just walking is exhausting so I don't know how they get the energy to do it."

If you're not busy, you can join Pettman's social movement next year at Everest. He plans to commission a haka for the event. Good times.

Celibacy Vow Not Kept. Shock Nowhere to Be Found.

Hoa Trung Nguyen, 47, a Buddhist monk of the Phap Bao Temple in Sydney's Cabramatta, alleges he had never had sex due to his vow of celibacy. Then he decided one fine evening to break that vow.

Too bad he asked an undercover cop posing as a prostitute. Magistrate Ronald Maiden said, after the four-hour hearing, "The accused's version of events, in my view, borders on farcical. It is quite fantastic."

Believing he never had sex his WHOLE LIFE until he decided at THAT MOMENT to buy sex? Nahhhhhhhhh!

UK Women Gettin' Busy at Work


In a study done by newwoman.co.uk, 2,000 women aged between 18 and 35 across the UK were questioned. The study proved that four out of five UK women flirt and sleep with associates without remorse. Furthermore, only 8% said it destroyed their work relationships and 58% said it had no effect at all.

It gets better. Allegedly 25% have had sex in his office, 16% in hers, 12% on the bosses' desk and 4% admit to sex in an office cupboard. These are small women.

Pick your jaw up off the desk. If you're a boss in the UK, 20% of women will sleep with you no matter what you look like.

I'm thinking that further research into this "research" may prove that it was filled out by males aged between 18 and 35.

The Love Necessity

South Korea has decided that the word "Condom" is just not kitchy enough and needs to be changed. They've decided to go with "ae-pil" or "love necessity". Unfortunately, a backlash hit when South Koreans with similar-sounding characters in their names responded that they did not wish to be known as "Mr. or Ms. Condom" from here on out. Party poopers.
