Safe sex, with or without condoms

Wednesday, February 13, 2008 ||

So, supposedly all of the parents hate the sex issue of Student Life. This reaction is to be expected. I never used to understand the protection issues that fathers have with their daughters. I mean, all of those fathers were once the boys whom they now intimidate and hurl ludicrous threats at, like “If my daughter isn’t back by 8:30, I will strap you to a tree and pour honey down your pants until fire ants have come and eaten your penis.

I was browsing through YouTube videos the other day when I came across an episode of “Crossfire” from 1985 in which the brilliant Frank Zappa was the guest. He had come onto the show after testifying before Congress about the possibility of government censorship of popular music.

ResLife: Twin beds are too small

Looking to have sexual relations? It can be fun, but not if you have a TINY BED.
