Independent Sources editors reject story on 10-year erection
Story labeled “not newsworthy” by newly-sensitive faction within I.S.
If you are interested in the story about the former handyman who won more than $400,000 in a lawsuit over a penile implant that gave him a 10-year erection you’ll just have to click to the Jammy. Sorry, we are simply not able to talk about the fact that this man could no longer hug people, ride a bike, swim or wear bathing trunks because of the pain and embarrassment.
Besides this story, if you look carefully at the Jammy you might find a story on the circus hippo that swallowed a dwarf in a “freak accident” (their pun, not ours).
Update: On a related note: (a) It appears that medical researchers have just determined that Viagra helps certain endurance athletes perform at altitude. Tests were conducted on 10 trained cyclists who were riding in simulated altitude. (b) It was also noted that a previous test had shown Viagra having a positive effect on the heart’s workload for certain individuals while at the base camp of Mount Everest (over 17,000 feet). Finally, the military is testing the drug’s effects because of a desire to help in its ongoing fight in the high altitudes of Afghanistan.
To which Independent Sources responds: (a) Great, Viagra helps endurance athletes bike at altitude. How comfortable is it going to be for the next Lance Armstrong to be powering over the Pyrenées with a stiff you-know-what? (b) What in the world were mountain climbers doing with Viagra at Everest base camp? If there was ever a time that “Not tonight, I’ve got a head-ache” was almost certainly true, it would be at Everest base camp. (c) Male enhancement is probably the last thing that a group of men need who are stuck in the mountains of Muslim country. Why not give it to prisoners or a couple of guys stuck on a remote island. Where is the common sense?
