http://www.dazereader.com/24000928.htm LA Weekly collects a bunch of quirky, cringe-inducing news items involving penis-related activities. Did you know that "Thailand’s Health Ministry released an official public warning earlier this year to the growing number of men (and, in some cases, schoolchildren) who were injecting their penises with olive oil, paraffin and Vaseline"?


http://www.dazereader.com/24000927.htm Schadenfreude is not admirable, but who can resist the occasional indulgence? Tulsa Pastor Arrested On Lewdness Charge.

An executive committee member of the Southern Baptist Convention was arrested on a lewdness charge for propositioning a plainclothes policeman outside a hotel.

[Lonnie] Latham, who has spoken out against homosexuality, asked the officer to join him in his hotel room for oral sex. Latham was arrested and his 2005 Mercedes automobile was impounded.

When he left jail, he said: "I was set up. I was in the area pastoring to police."

"Pastoring" would make great slang for oral sex. I'm gonna start using that. (Via Hit & Run.)

http://www.dazereader.com/24000926.htm Recently in Wai Wai, the Japanese tabloids in translation review: Ancient rice festival has reputation smeared by 'therapeutic' facial cream claims.

Initially, the festival is a somewhat closed affair as the shrine's parishioners gather at the main hall to have a feast.

As time goes on, Cyzo notes, the atmosphere becomes considerably lighter and soon men come along bearing containers.

Inside the containers is rice flour mixed with water to form a sticky, glutinous substance called oshiroi, which is where the festival gets its name.

Starting with the shrine's chief priest, the men draw out handfuls of the gooey mess from the containers they're carrying and smear it all over the face of all those taking part in the banquet, whether they like it or not, with results closely resembling what the adult video world refers to as a gansha, or facial shot.

Not particularly sexy photos from the Oshiroi Festival here and here. 3yen.com links to this TV news clip about the festival.
