Being a registered voter of Alabama, I admit I had to chuckle when I found out about this.

Loretta Nall is a 32 year old woman who is running for Governor of Alabama.  She is a write-in candidate (she failed to collect the 40k signatures required to be placed on the ballot) , for the Libertarian Party, running under her own US Marijuanna Party (she is founder and President of the USMJ Party).

Among her her platform is the legalization of marijuanna, the stopping of Columbia from spraying pestacides on coca plants (the chemicals may poison cocaine users), the removal of Alabama National Guard from the US Army, and the immediate pardoning of anybody convicted of a marijuanna crime.

She has made the news here before, having run for various state and national offices.  During a run for State Senate last year, she was prohibited from visiting her brother in jail because she would not submit to a search (everybody gets searched going into a prison).  She states that the reason she refused is that she does not wear panties.

Her fundraising has also been somewhat questionable in this area.  For $2, she will send you a cartoon of her boobs.  For $50, she will flash you her boobs.  And a T-shirt she has been selling states "Fote for Loretta Nall - More of these boobs (picture of her cleavage), less of these boobs (pictures of Governor Bob Riley (R) and Lt. Governor Lucy Baxter (D), and Judge Roy Moore (the "10 Commandments" Judge).

Boy, am I proud to live in the state which has the only pantyless Governor candidate.   :D

Hey, women going topless, I'm all for it!  No, wait, I'm against it! No, I mean...

It's a Catch-22. 
1. If I say I'm for wmen going topless, I'm an ogling pervo.
2. If I say I'm against women going topless, I'm an oppressive patriarch.

Can't win!

:D she already has my vote i luv boobies ... oh nevermind i forgot i dont live in that state ...bummer ???

For $50, she'll flash you her boobies.  Ain't that like a politician.  Even the Libertarian ones tend to overcharge for things you could have gotten twice as much of, and for free.

In that spirit, here's two pair (they always travel in pairs) of boobies hangin' out on a beach.  Yes, they're real (and they're fabulous!), and it won't cost you a cent to see 'em. 

Probably do a better job of running things than any of the candidates, too.  If only they were on the ballot.

Why is the pc word "boobs"? What ever happened to good, old-fashioned titties? ;D

Who knows, who cares.  It was rather clever, though.

Dude, she is just a little skanky.  She reminds me of either Pia Zadora with a weight problem, or Angelyne.  And I have met Angelyne many times, she looks nothing like her airbrushed and glamorized billboards.  She is only around 50, but looks like she is 70, with tons of face lifts, and the body of a 19 year old.  Very distubrbing.

And Angelyne also ran for Governor in 2003 against Arnold and Mary Carey.

Notice, I said "Pia Zadora".  For those that remember her, she was petite, and weighted maybe 85 lbs soaking wet.  But she had an elfin face, and even in her 40's she could have passed for being in her 20's.  In 1982, she made a movie called Butterfly, where she was supposed to be protraying a 16 year old girl.  Pia was 28 at the time.  (for those that were not around to remember the movie - it was controversial because it portrayed an incestous father-daughter relationship - incest was big in the 1980's, look at Flowers In The Attic and Back To The Future)  However, other then when doing a role, Pia tended to "dress and look her age".  She did not carry her "youthfull" appearance into her real life.

I guess I just find it disturbing when people try to look so much younger then they really are.  Kinda like seeing your grandmother going outside today wearing a tight sweater and a miniskirt.

Loretta is 32, tries to look 20, and dresses like she is 16.  I just find that disturbing.

I think it is a woman's right to go topless if she wants to (just like men can go topless). I call it being "liberated" meaning not being restrained by the old Victorian rules of society. I, myself have been topless on a few occasions-sometimes when we are out on the boat and when I have gone to a nude beach. But to charge someone to show them certain body parts (whatever that body part is), then I call it another word.

It's funny how in much of Europe, "topless" is no big deal.  Children in places like Scandinavia grow up seeing nudity, and seeing nudity as natural.  Thus, nudity per se does not equal sexuality.  Don't get the wrong impression, Scandinavians are some of the most porno-loving people on the face of the Earth!  The difference is they can differentiate the unclothed body from sexual overture.  You will see whole families strolling nude on the beach in Denmark and nobody cares.
Per capita incidences of rape, assault, sexual harrassment, and child abuse are far lower inthese countries than in the U.S.  Perhaps it is our Victorian hang-ups about sexuality (and I have my share of hang-ups) that create all the angst and bad behavior regarding sex.

I myself have absolutely no problem with nudity.  My friends all know to let me know if they are comming over.  If they do not, expect to spend 5 minutes or so waiting outside while I get dressed.  And I have also worked at several strip clubs.  While I did not like the environment (the quasi-prostitution and exploitation), the nudity part did not matter to me one little bit.  The human body is nothing to be ashamed of.

I would question the "sexual assault" claim though.  I did a quick search, and found that the rates in Canada, England, and France are within 2% of those in the US when broken into a per capita rate.  About the only reason why there are more actual crimes is the larger population in the US (US: 300 million, France: 63 million, England: 53 million, Canada: 32 million).  There is a report on the amount of rapes in Canada that came out from their Government last year, which shows that almost the same percentage of women are raped there as in the US.

In reality, I think this is a sad but true average around the world.  The only places where you will see a drastic reduction is in nations which either under-report it (like the USSR frequently did), or where it is largely ignored or not treated as a crime (as in many Sharia Lw countries).  To show how this can be, under Sharia Law, rape in and of itself is not a crime.  The actual crime is the theft of something from the father (or husband) of the woman.  Therefore it is not considered "rape", as much as "theft".  And because the women are often punished as well because they did not die to protect their "honour", it is rarely even reported.

I also think that American's "fear" of nudity is asinine.  Yet we love violence.  I can't tell you how many parents I know that allow their children to watch violent movie after violent movie, but then their child sees one breast and all hell breaks loose.  It's ridiculous.  And I think it's the violence that leads to rape far more than sexuality.  For most rapists, rape is a show of power.  It isn't about the sex.

You owe me a new keyboard, but I maintain it goes all the way back to Star Wars, when Luke and Leia jumped over the catwalk.  Totally gratuitous depiction, had nothing to do with the plot.

Actually when you look at him in the 70's, he was quite good looking.  That was in the era when chest and back hair was all the rage on the disco floors.  He was tall, was a good actor, had a great wit, and was rather thin.  Plus he had the classical dark Mediteranian looks.

He only became the "fat hairy toad" that we know today in the early 1990's.  And of course that was after Video became all the rage.  Acting became irrelevant, and audiences wanted more and more extreme action, with little reguard to quality or acting.

I don't recall his exact measurements...  I'm sure he wasn't John Holmes   :P It's been awhile since I've seen cheesy 70's porn.

Well, for our metric friends out here, he measured 24.76 centimeters.  That is 9.75 inches for us Yankees.

And I admit, I actually like some of the older porn movies.  Some of them really had cute/funny stories.  And some of the people in them could really act.

IN my opinion, good porn "died" when videotape came along.  Pre-video, a typical porn budget was between $100,000-140,000.  After the camcorder and video tape distribution came along, a person could make a porn movie for just a few hundred dollars.  No need for sets, actors, sound people, editing, or scripts.  Just tape 60 minutes of your friend getting it on and make the copies in your garage with a bank of $100 VCRs.

There were a few people in the US that tried to buck this trend.  One of them was Andrew Blake, who to this day still only shoots on film (with an average budget of $400,000+).  And the new "rebirth" is actually comming from Europe.  Viv Thomas works out of England, and films all over Europe.  His sfilms always have a story, and are shot on either film (his earlier work), or high quality digital video.

But the industry is over-run with the cheaper types of film, with no story and wall-to-wall sex.  Bangbus, Buttman, Girls Gone Wild, CFF, and the like.  An Average Bangbus "episode" runs for around an hour, and costs less then $5,000.  The owners of these companies have all become millionaires, because of the low cost of making the movie, and the ability to sell them instantly over the internet.

Now excuse me, I am off to watch my favorite version of "My Fair Lady", it's called "The Opening Of Misty Beethoven".  8)

my armpits, I have to shave, though I am lucky, cuz it's quite light, so I can let it go for a week or so sometimes.. Now my legs, that's another story... I sometimes don't shave my legs all winter!! (I live in Minnesota.. we need the extra insulation!)  In fact, I haven't shaved my legs in about 3 weeks right now.. luckily I'm blonde so it doesn't show up much, not that anyone is seeing them right now anyway.

I think you should start your own thread.. "Ask Me Anything About Porn" . You sure seem to know a lot about it. :P


LOL!  Actually, I know several people that work in "that industry".  And as somebody interested in the movie industry in general, it is only natural that I follow that industry as well.  In many ways, they are pioneers.  Digital distribution, digital editing, even digital video filming are all things that porn started to do years ago.  Hollywood is only now starting to catch up to them in some areas.

To give an idea what I mean, Star Wars II (2002) was the first movie shot on digital video.  The porn industry had already started to move to that in the mid to late 1990's.  The Stand (1994) was the first full-length movie to be edited on a computer.  Porn had already started that move by the late 1980's.  By the end of the 1990's, virtually every porn movie was being edited by computer.  By 2006, less then 50% of conventional movies are edited that way.  Hollywood is still rigidly fighting on-line distribution of movies, saying it will loose them money.  On-line distribution of porn has made a lot of people rich, and is very profitable.

Of course, there are other things that came from porn.  Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker (the creaters of Airplane, Naked Gun, and Scary Movie series) first became known because of a little film they did called "Kentucky Fried Movie".  David Zucker has admitted that a lot of the inspiration behind their ideas came from "edited soft-core" porn movies, and the scripts often used in them.  They simply took the same over-the-top style of racey comedy, and made it mainstream.

With this armpit hair vs no armpit hair, I say to each his/her own. I would rather have hairy legs than hairy armpits.  Personally, I don't like it on women but I respect those who chose not to shave-that is their right, but I wish they wouldn't show it. Carlos' ex came over one day to pick up their youngest daughter after coming from a wedding. She had on a sun dress with no sleeves and you can see the hair under her pits.  :P Yes, she was dressed like that for a wedding!!! Yeah, it was her right to do that but that doesn't mean that it was in the best of taste. Of course no one ever accused her and husband of knowing how to dress for weddings. At Carlos' daughter's wedding, her husband showed up in cut-offs, a tee-shirt with some kind of picture on it and no shoes.  ::)

I'm with ya on the shaving thing... it's all a personal choice. I do it in summer, naturally as more flesh is exposed. In winter, I'll shave the pits, but the legs will go until I can't stand them any longer.. It's funny , the hubby has never complained about my man legs in winter. I think he knows better!! I'd have to tell him where to go... :P 

I wonder how it came about that women started shaving their pits? ???


As far as I know, the ancient Egyptians started shaving under their arms as a way to cut down on body odor.


I personally prefer to be clean shaven, and wish that men would shave under their arms too.  :P

It was a lot more fun back then.  With a few exceptions, those performers could not act their way out of wet paper bag.  And that music--classic!  What I recall is the dialog got shorter and shorter as the '80s progressed.  By the mid '80s it was down to a few lines to introduce what the folks really rented the tape to see.  Something like,
"Soooo, you want work for me, eh?  Well, come into my office for an interview!"
(canned music: wakajiwakajiwaka bwah bwah, wakajiwakajiwaka bwah bwah...)
Then by the late '80s, a the industry reached the critical mass of carnal footage that allowed producers to release "wall-to-wall" compilations of scenes.  Thus, the same Christy Canyon scene from 1986 might appear on 30 compilations over the next 15 years!.
The thing about the "golden age" of adult movies of which Mr. Mushroom speaks was the atmosphere was more friendly.  The swill that's on the Internet nowadays is no fun.  There's too much anger in it.  The whole idea is revenge on women.  That's literally all the "Bang Bus" stuff is.  I don't watch that kind of material, it makes me nervous.  Many of the feminists claimed that pornography was about "revenge on women" from the start.  You can make that argument about pornography produced 20 and 30 years ago, but you also make a contrary argument.  Not so with the Internet stuff.  Everybody may be legally consenting adults, but it sure doesn't seem that way!

I think that was a Jeff Foxworthy joke!
:D



Joke or not, it did happen. I was embarrassed for the bride & groom. I understand not wanting to wear a suit and tie but even a nice pair of jeans and a nice shirt would have been ok.

The sweat and the bacteria and all the other nasties stick to the hair and that to me, makes it unhygienic.


Wellll.... That stuff sticks to hair all over your body.

Time to break out the razors!

;D  I saw this subject line and already knew it was about Nall, being an Alabama resident.  I don't really respect Baxley or Riley.  I just see this election as one big pissing contest.  Seriously, I was watching TV with my mom, and four political ads played consecutively.  What's funny is that one of Riley's negative ads criticizes Baxley for playing negative campaign ads.

it's the presence of sweat, dark places, and heat that bring about the bacteria growth . Our skin is covered with bacteria anyway, it's called 'normal flora' .. Normal soap and water takes care of it, if you are too rigorous with scrubbing you actually can break down your body's normal healthy  immunity and leave yourself open to infections.  But that aside, razors ARE a good way to exfoliate!

That is one reason I am very grateful that I have cable.  About the only channels I watch are History, Discovery, A&E, PBS, and Sci-Fi.  Thankfully, most political campaigns do not target those networks, so am failry "politics free".

And to be honest to both sides, most of the negative political adds nowadays do not come from the candidates themselves, but from various PACs.  And quite often, they are doing their "negative work" against the wishes of the candidates they claim to be in favor of.

There was one that ran in LA about 6 years ago for a State Legislature campaign.  A PAC played a horribly smearfull commercial, accusing the guy of corruption.  And even though the candidate it claimed to be in favor of wanted it stopped, they still ran it.  In response, the candidate himself did a commercial, stating that while he was running against this guy, he thought he was an honest and fair man, and charges against him were greatly exagerated.  It ended with him saying that if his opponant was guilty of anything, it was of trusting a relative (I seem to remember the corruption started because of the actions of his brother or brother-in-law).

Myself, I have never liked negative ads.  It is fair to make an ad highlighting things where you and your opponant dissagree.  And it is even fair to bring up things that might call something into question (poor attendance record, corruption (indited or proven - not suspicians), or voting against constituant wishes.  But when I see these ones like "this person voted for/against sending troops to Iraq" (which the majority of both sides supported) or "that person went to a Playboy Party", I say enough.  Give me a broad picture of a person and why I should vote for/against them.  Because everybody in office will make decisions I agree and dissagree with.

We're running a little off-topic here, but I must weigh in.  I don't know of anybody who claims to like smear campaigns, other than skunks like Dick Morris who run them.  What they played on Harold Ford was the dirtiest race card in the deck.  They might as well have put a big caption on the screen saying, "Harold Ford: A Black man who has sex with White women!"  That's a scummy tactic aimed at racial fear we all hoped was behind us.  A lof of Republicans publically condemned the ad.  Jack Kemp was one of them.  Of course, Kemp couldn't care less who sleeps with who, all he cares about his eliminating the capital gains tax!  They've also doctored Ford's photos to make his feshtone darker.  Pathetic.

To be honest, I thought nothing of that.  Like I have said many times, I am "colour blind", and could not care less what race anybody is.  Even when it was pointed out to me that Mr. Ford was black, I still did not see what the problem was.  I think they only reason they used that woman was because she was stereotypically a "dumb blonde ditzy skank" type, and nothing else.  It could have been a black woman, or an asian, and it still would not have affected me one way or another.

Besides, I also think nothing of his having gone to a Playboy party.  If anything, Playboy is rather tame nowadays.  You will find as much nudity on Cinemax as you will on their TV shows, and pictures almost as graphic in a lot of "women's magazines".  For most people, the idea that Playboy was about "rampant sex" died during the 1960's and 1970's, when Playboy hosted several TV shows and started their now famous "Playboy Jazz Festival".

Their were Playboy Playmates at a Superbowl Party that Ford attended.  He wasn't partying at the Playboy Mansion with Hugh himself.  Even if he was, 90+ percent of the electorate could care less!  If they're not playing the race card, I don't know what they're driving at.  Sexual depravity?  As you say, Playboy is tame nowadays.  Maybe not if you're over 80 and lost track of pop culture after "Ain't Nothing But a Hound Dog."  There might be some Christian Right constituents who will feign outrage, but they all know they were at the t!ttie bar last weekend.
