Can't resist sharing more info on this subject. There was a story on DIRECTV late at night, I think it was on FX, about a penis museum in Scotland. Their largest example was from a sperm whale, 8' long and over 200 pounds! And they interviewed an old man who had agreed to provide their first human specimen, (after he died, of course).

I remember getting in trouble at about 10 years old for pointing out, to a 6 year old neighbor boy, the action in a fish tank of guppies.

Ah, yes..Richard m'boy..That's from W.C.Fields. Contemporaneous with Mae West's "Is that a banana in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?"

Colymbosathon ecplecticos - derived from the Greek for "astounding swimmer with a large penis"


lol, I can see the scientists sitting around thinking THAT one up..

now,

Wouldn't the drag against the water preclude you being an
'astounding swimmer'???

Just wait. someone on a college swim team will change their name to C. Ecplecticos just for the Athens Games...


and for my last joke....

425 million years is a Viagra nightmare.

Uh....penis is the correct term for that particular body part.

Typically medical terms aren't considered 'bad'.

Whew! Glad to hear that. Don't get me wrong, I really like this subject. It's still a little shocking to hear it said on TV.

Have you ever heard of the infamous Jimi Hendrix plaster cast?

I'm really getting sick of the one star rater. :rolleyes:


I think this is a fascinating subject. I never would have thought such a tiny living thing would have a penis, so it's pretty surprising. We're only talking about a part of anatomy.

Don't worry about the 1- rater, Luckies. This is a sensitive subject.

But probably that person either has one of these, or knows someone who does!

You were brave to post this interesting thread!

Funny Zippy-kat!

Funny Richard!

No, Jimi is not a fossil! I heard about the JH plastercast in a book by a groupie back in the 60's. She had made plastercasts of many rock stars' _____s. JH's was the biggest.

Keith Richards is the fossil...LOL

Hey Slick,

I've got ya beat by 2 years!! I call it "involuntary celibacy". :eek: :eek: I thought a "date" was a place on the calendar. :D

Richard,

Did you know that fish "stuff" is called emulsion???? Try reading the back of a plant ferilizer container. I call it fish sh*t. It's amazing what you can find when you actually read labels.

Ok, you found the oldest penis ... but I found the most penises. ;)



"Czech family say they've got rabbit with three penises

A family in the Czech Republic say a rabbit they've bred has three penises.

And the Samek family from Liblice say two other rabbits they bred, but killed, each had two penises.

Lenka Samkova, 14, said: "We went to see a vet about it and he was puzzled. He said he'd never seen anything like the rabbit with three penises before."

The family has already killed and eaten the two rabbits with two penises, but has kept the third rabbit in the hope they can enter the record books, say local media.

The Guinness Book of Records say there is no record for this at present, but added they would consider the rabbit for inclusion in the book if the family gets in touch and provides the relevant information."

I think the more relevant question is how did the PTers find all this penis information. I mean, did you just google "penis?" I can only imagine the results from that search!!;) :p

OK you penis Googlers... you're going to get us ALL in trouble. Godfrey Daniels ..... I don't think I've EVER Googled a penis. Well maybcfgctft *stifles self* My journal SCIENCE also broke the story about the cockroaches that had little rockets strapped to their backs by scientists . This was to study something or another but the thought of armed cockroaches was enough to give me nightmares :eek: I'M NOT MAKING THIS UP!!

Soledad
12-12-2003, 12:57 PM
Yes, lbaker, but what about jet powered cockroaches with multiple penises? Now THAT'S a nightmare.

From my experience, the possession of ONE penis is enough to turn your average man into a bumbling idiot (Richard, present company accepted).
If 3 became the norm, God help civilization.

Soledad

I think that if men did have three penises, jet packs would be in order because I have no idea how they'd walk.

Is it wrong I laughed after Piper lost "the family jewels" and gained a funky hop for a day or two?

Uhh... nope, can't say I would've noticed... I thought Piper was a girl the first few months that I had him! :eek:

Oh the indignity I bestow up on the four footed twirp!
