on the train to training (part 2; reading today’s metro)
According to today’s metro paper; “we can still have sex in a public toilet, providing we take the trouble to close the door first”. Do you really want to have sex in a place that smells like public toilets do while listening to the guy farting and shitting next door? Let alone that if you don’t catch a STI you most likely will catch a PTTI (Public Toilet Transmitted Infection).
Just, ew!

Scientists Find Fossils in Sexual Union
Thu Nov 3,11:03 AM ET
LUCKNOW, India - This was no one-night stand. Scientists in India say they have discovered two fossils fused together in sexual union for 65 million years.The findings were published in the October edition of the Indian journal “Current Science,” which said it was the first time that sexual copulation had been discovered in a fossil state, according to the Press Trust of India news agency.
But voyeurs will need a microscope to view the eternal lovers.
The fossils are tiny swarm cells, a stage in the development of the fungus myxomycetes, also known as slime molds.
The cells reproduce by “fusing,” Ranjeet Kar of the Birbal Sahni Institute of Palaeobotany in Lucknow reportedly told PTI. Once the cells fuse, long, threadlike appendages known as flagella, are lost, he said.
Finding the fossils in a fused position and with their flagella shed, is evidence that the two cells were having sex, Kar said.
“The sexual organs being delicate and the time of conjugation short lived, it is indeed rare to get this stage in the fossil state,” the study said.
The cells were discovered in a 30-foot deep dry well in the state of Madhya Pradesh.

Dear Mr. G.W.B.,
Please,
look at what happened. Your people need you. Yes, your people. I think Iraq has had the pleasure of your attention for far too long now. It is time you directed your eyes at something closer and more important. Time to help the people that ASKED you to help them when they voted for you. Support them, they need you. Yes, you’ve tried but that’s just not enough.
My heart goes out to all these people that are living through this disaster, the one’s that didn’t make it and their families. I feel so grateful to be so far away yet I wish I was near. I wish I could help. My hands cannot reach that far but my heart can.
I can’t help and it makes me angry. You can help Mr. President. Please do it for me. You can practise saying “nuclear” some other time.
Thank you in advance,
Colin
