The reason some animals (notably dogs) get stuck is because the male dog has
a knob which engorges after penetration, and usually deflates after he climaxes

	I've never heard about this one, but many medical textbooks have
documented cases where a couple has become trapped during "normal" intercourse
when the woman's (in the case histories usually a virgin newlywed) vaginal
muscles spasm, trapping the penis. After time the muscles may release, if not
an injection in the appropriate area of a muscle relaxant will solve the
problem.

Why would the WHO try and help the spread of AIDS.  I can see how wiping 
out much of the worlds population would make there job a lot easier - but
I'm sure they wouldn't see it that way.

You have a lot to learn about economic imperialism if you don't think the
'imperialists' aren't already in control - with a large population of cheap 
labour to do the hard work - 'they' wouldn't want to lose that now would they.

Well, with cats, it's better for it to go under.  If the cat, when playing with
the roll gets a claw into the dangling paper itself, you have paper all over
the bathroom regardless.  But if you have the paper "over", the cat can dump
paper all over if it gets hold of the roll itself, as when it spins the roll
it dumps all over the floor, but if "under", spinning the roll itself is
harmless.

Not to worry. This is AFU

Since this IS AFU, I guess I better post some UL experiences, rather than
just focusing in on my buddy, James "T" Kirk.

I spent my vacation in Negril, Jamacia at the Grand Lido resort this past
summer.  It was great.  My spouse and I found that they had a nice nude
beach and we spent our entire week without having to have a change of
clothes.

Well, just as I'm thinking that I've gotten away from everything, I overhear
a young lady who's telling everybody about this TRUE story that happened
to a friend-of-a-friend.  It's the old classic AIDS story:  Guy goes to
bar; meets girl; goes back to his place and has sex; wakes up next morning
and she's gone, but...

And at this point I inject, "But on the mirror in his bathroom she had
written WELCOME TO THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF AIDS".  The lady exclaims,
"why that's right, how did you know?".  I tell her I'm psychic.

Needless to say, she didn't believe me when I told her it's an old Urban
Legend.  "But it's true!  It happened to a FOAF".  I asked her if she
could prove it did not happen! ;-)

Furrfu!  The things I do for AFU (and in the nude too!)

I had to make an emergency trip to Miami from Atlanta.  Normally I checked
my toolbag, and carried my briefcase on board.  Now my toolbag contains
one each of virtually every hand tool known to man.  Screwdrivers,
wrenches, hammers.  After a hectic two hours fighting traffic getting
to the airport, I realized I had checked my briefcase and was carrying
my toolbag.  It had gone through x-rays and metal detectors with nary a
beep.  Keep in mind that I'm talking about a good 30 pounds of ferrous
metal......

There is a restaurant in Toronto which had, the last time I was there
at least, two euphemism rooms (water closet, rest room, bathroom,
salle de bain, whatever your favourite euphemism for toilet is).  The
first was marked "MEN/WOMEN" and the second "WASHROOM".  I can't remember
if both had urinals, but both had a couple of stalls.  Nearly everybody who 
walked in looked around confusedly and, upon seeing a member of the opposite
sex, gushed apologies and fled.  I was washing my hands, having finished
my business when a middle-aged woman came in and looked panicked.  "It's
ok," I said, "I was just leaving."  This place was on Yonge Street and
rather popular with the Doc Martin crowd, who didn't seem to care about
such niceties.

Well, the triangle depicts a woman's... naughty bits ... and the circle

this symbol and she thought that all men were assholes...  honest, would
I just make this up?

>ObUL: Humananity's loss of fur as insulation over the millenia

Well, I heard from a friend of a friend that the need for toilet paper
was artificially generated by the Kimberly-Clark paper company in the
60's as a way of generating a new market for paper products.  They were
afraid that the computer boom which they saw looming would mean the end
of paper products, so they invented toilet paper and then convinced people
that they needed it...  Of course, the joke was one them, because it
turned out that the computer industry created a new boom in paper consumption,
but that was engineered by a rival paper-making company.  But now society
is stuck with toilet paper... right there on its shoe, and nobody is telling
it because they're too embarassed.

Those enemy soldiers/fliers/sailors can do a hell of a lot of damage

The method of transmission is eminently unsuitable for warfare
purposes -- are you going to drop paratroops into enemy areas to have
sex with them?  Or maybe just sneak up and inject them with
contaminated blood while their sleeping?

Even if you could come up with an effective delivery method, HIV
doesn't survive well outside the body.  The logistics problems of
manufacturing, storing, and transporting large quantities of the virus
are almost as insurmountable.

You're much better off with bacterial agents which spread by skin

I'm a little confused here.  I don't know what the situation is in the USA,
but my understanding is that in Britain something is a Bill until
parliament makes it law by turning it into an Act.  The posters above talk
of the Bills of Rights being passed, so why aren't they Acts of Rights?
And if they are merely Bills, why do they have any effect?
