We’ve said it here before many times: Don’t take nude photos of yourself if you don’t want people to see them.

An Arkansas couple is learning this lesson the hard way.  The husband Phillip Sherman stopped at a McDonalds for a burger fix and accidentally left his cell phone in the restaurant.  Unfortunately, the phone had nude photos of his wife Tina.

When Sherman discovered his mistake, he immediately called the restaurant, and employees there assured him they’d keep his phone safe.  Yet the photos — along with Sherman’s name, phone number and address — made their way to the Internet.

Now Sherman is suing McDonald’s for $3 million.  He claims they had to move to a new house to get away from his wife’s stalkers.  Although this is an unfortunate incident for the couple, $3 million is not a bad payday for a few nude photos of the wife.

What recession?  Apparently nobody told lingerie maker Victoria’s Secret that the economy is in the dumps.

At the Victoria Secret fashion show in Miami, 35 supermodels strutted their stuff in a “fabulously opulent extravaganza, with most of them dripping in feathers, lace, sequins and eye-wateringly expensive jewelry.”

Adriana Lima walked the line in the Black Diamond Fantasy Miracle Bra, worth $5 million.  The bra is adorned with white and black diamonds and rubies and will be for sale in the Victoria’s Secret catalogue.  The bra’s designer Martin Katz said, “You could wear it as an open top because it looks like a finished top.”

“Sex addict” is not a term usually associated with women.  But experts say the number of sex addicts is rising, and contrary to popular opinion, they are not all men.

“In America, 30% of people coming in for treatment for sex addiction are female,” says Don Serratt, director of a sex-addiction treatment center.  Women will “come for help with alcoholism, drug addiction or depression and, in the course of treatment, the sex addiction, the root cause of the other addictions, will be uncovered,” Serratt says.

The point is driven home by Valerie, a 35 year-old human-resources manager in the UK.  “Any time I met a guy who didn’t respond to me sexually, it would make me determined to have him,” confesses Valerie.  “It became a challenge, a game, regardless of whether he was married or with someone.  The lowest point came when I tried to seduce my best friend’s fiance.  I couldn’t bear the fact that, when they were together, he wouldn’t so much as look at me.  It was an itch I had to scratch.” 

Valerie was unaware of her problem, even when her friend’s fiance rejected her advances and threw a drink on her.  It was only as she grew older and all her friends settled down that Valerie began to question her behavior.  She is now in 12-step recovery program for her sex addiction.  “Everyone used to tell me how lucky I was, as I could get any man I wanted.  I’m quite a competitive person and it was important for me to know that, in my circle of girlfriends, I was viewed as the hottest,” Valerie said.

Although female sex addicts crave intimacy like all women, Serratt believes they are subconsciously terrified by true intimacy.  And because of their low self-esteem, female sex addicts are afraid to let a man get to know the “real” them.  Once they are in a relationship, sex addicts will often try to find fault in their mates and hold them to unrealistic standards.  They tend to seek men with superficial qualities, good looks and bad-boy images, because what they’re most attracted to is the fantasy itself.

Warning: The Apple iPhone has a glitch that will photograph your genitals and email it to hot women!

This was the claim by a woman named Susan in the Apple help forum.  She was snooping through her husband’s iPhone and found a photo of his privates attached to an email in the Sent Mail folder.  The email was addressed to another woman.  Obviously, Susan assumed her husband might be cheating on her.

When Susan confronted her husband, he claimed this was a known iPhone glitch.  He said the iPhone will take random photos while in your pocket, then email those photos to attractive female co-workers.  Never mind the fact that it’s usually pitch dark in your pocket, and the phone would be completely surrounded by cloth and therefore not have a clear shot of anything, um, hanging nearby.

Susan wanted to know if this was possible, since the future of her marriage depended on the answer.  The forum members were unanimous in their response: he’s having an affair.  Their advice was to dump him immediately, though at least one writer wanted to see the photo.

You can’t open your email without being reminded that your equipment is too small.  Viagra ads are everywhere — your Inbox, on TV, on radio.  By now, everyone knows that you should seek medical attention if you have an erection lasting more than four hours.  Or call the Guinness Book of Records.

With this marketing blitz, consumers will eventually tune out the noise, hence advertisers need to get creative in order to reach new customers.  So Viagra has turned to creative product placement with this light switch cover found in doctor’s offices.  It gives the term “turning on the lights” a whole new meaning. 

So if I flip this switch on and off repeatedly, does that make me gay?

You may not like her politics, but you gotta love her thighs.

With the explosion of the Internet, there is more self-expression today than at any other time in history.  With the click of a mouse, you can instantly broadcast your message around the globe where potentially millions of people can see what’s on your mind. 

But a decidedly more low-tech means of personal expression is currency defacing.  Although it’s illegal in most countries, currency defacing allows you to create art that’s instantly valuable.  How valuable of course depends on which denomination bill you deface.  And when you are done enjoying your art, you can always spend it, and allow an anonymous chain of subsequent owners to enjoy your talent.
