Where do they find the fans for these segments, and do they give them ecstasy prior to taping? How hard did they have to work to find a roomful of people whose reaction to this was anything better than "Huh...eh"? It's a mystery to me.

SURPRISE!
Plastic surgery on your labia is harmful! The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the Society of Gynecologic Surgeons are both saying that vaginal rejuvenation and cosmetic methods of altering the vagina "are unproven and potentially risky, and that medical claims about results are exaggerated."
"To do this for cosmetic reasons, and to say it will improve sexual fulfillment is totally absurd," says Thomas Stovall, past president of the Society of Gynecologic Surgeons and a clinical professor at the University of Tennessee at Memphis.
They cite Dr. 90210's David Matlock for popularizing cosmetic surgery for female genitals. It's a little beyond me why anyone would really want to undergo a procedure that quite often leads to "infection, scarring, nerve damage and loss of sensation," but let's keep in mind that Dr. David Matlock is the same doctor that:
Are we really surprised that this is the man who's performed over 3,000 surgeries, and trained 140 doctors?

- almost had his license revoked by The Medical Board of California in 1998 for alleged "insurance fraud, dishonesty and negligent care to two patients" (State Records of California)
- Was placed on probation for four years in 2000

so hey, it may be your uterus, but legally, it could belong to your ex-boyfriend
A quick snapshot: seeking a first-time abortion? Well, if a new Ohio law passes (H.B. No. 207), women in the state will have to provide their abortion providers with "written, informed consent" of the father. Additionally, women will have to provide paternity tests to prove that the written, informed consent is actually from the father. So, not sure who the father is? Pay for paternity tests! And if you lie about it? It's now called "abortion fraud," and that's a first degree misdemeanor. Commit "abortion fraud" twice, and it's a felony. And the icing on the cake? If you've been raped, you have to prove it. No, really, you have to provide your abortion provider with proof you've been raped.
It all just strikes me as terribly wrong.

The paper from Hell is done! 2,955 words on the relationship between Socialist art, the German Art Nouveau movement, and Zionist iconography through the artwork of Ephraim Moses Lilien!
Try writing that paper 3 times. OUCH.
Scratch your head, wondering why everyone accepts there is a connection between Zionist and Socialist symbolism, but no one has ever written on it/researched it in English!
Try finding out all your sources are only available in ONE room of the Royal Library, where someone will sit with you and watch you read them as you write things down with a pencil and paper because electronic devices are banned from the rare books room!
Watch as you are told that you cannot make copies of artwork because it is classified as an 'art book'!
Wait for an old man to take pity on you as start to cry because you actually needed those copies!
Groan the moment you find out that getting a copying card takes over a half an hour!
Scratch your head when you are told that you cannot put less than a 100 DKK on your card at one time!
Realize you are being ripped off as you make your copies and spend only 8 DKK!
Realize you computer has crashed again and you have lost your research!
Marvel at the Danish system of book retrieval as you try to check out the same books you did the day before, now mysteriously missing!
Conclusion: the Danish Library system is AWFUL. And in case anyone ever needs a copying card, I have one with like 92 DKK on it.
Also, I've been listening to this Tobias Fröberg guy from Sweden(brother of Jose Gonzales)...its sort of folky easy-listening stuff...kind of like Damien Rice, but with actual emotion and lyrics that have something to say, as opposed to just pretending. Mom, you would like him. I can send you the link to some free tracks.
Estonia this weekend!
