    remember when STDs used to be "VD"? i said something to a younger friend about VD one day, and she looked at me like i was insane, had no idea what i was talking about.

    The City really ought to drain the Canal and make a park out of it. It's cancerous and except for the oil depot and some private boats nobody uses it. How many times has the City tried to circulate water in the system with the stupid propeller and then have propeller break? Make a green space where people can stroll, look at some historical exhibits, have a market sprawl along on weekends and plant a shitload of sun loving, bee and butterfly attracting perennials.

    That's not bad, but Chappelle and Q-Tip left off so many. What about chlamydia, syphilis, HIV/AIDS, lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV), chancroid, genital warts (HPV), and one could argue cervical cancer?

    i'll pass. my dad was a doctor and we had his college textbooks in the basement. my brother and i had a field day looking at the gross pictures of diseases and such.

    (and, re the video, that the crabs part nearly made me fall over laughing.)
