Thank you for my new destop pic.

Oh could late night comedians have a field day with that !!!

Wife: "oh honey, what time is it ?"

Husband: "It's sex o'clock !" . . . . . . .

Wish I got Showtime, but not signing up for just 1 program !

Sterne's Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy begins with the moment of Tristram's conception, which is less than ideal because at the moment that his soon to be father is about to ejaculate, Tristram's soon to be mother, no doubt bored by the exercise of physical commerce, asks, "Pray, my dear, have you not forgot to wind up the clock?" To which Mr. Shandy replies, "Great G——! Did ever woman, since the creation of the world, interrupt a man with such a silly question?" And so Tristram is engendered when his father's spirits were not fully attentive to what he was in process of doing.

Tristram, who narrates his own begetting, coming of age (including the unfortunate incident of his circumcision by falling window pane), adulthood, and grand tour of the Continent, is particularly interested in the circumstances of how his parents disported themselves at that moment because he has a theory that "his genius and the very cast of his mind" is determined by "the animal spirits and how they are transfused from father to son."

The novel proceeds by indirections and digressions, so for the next 250 pages or so, Tristram tells us all about why it was that his mother asked that question, why it was that his father could have forgotten about winding up the clock, why it was that his father wanted to have a moment of coition on that occasion, where he had been before that evening, why he'd been there, what the arrangements were for the marriage of his parents, . . . .

It's a difficult novel, but I love it.

TWC offered a deal for Showtime for $3/mo. …. I'm on board! Wanted it specifically for Masters of Sex. 5 episodes in and think this show is fantastic.

Johnson is a hottie.... sharp and witty and luscious.

It's a cute show. I like it. Got all the big issue topics included. Sex, gays, abortion, adultery , bribery., domestic abuse. Women's issues. Haven't seen anything about guns yet, tho

Masters is a neat character. Johnson is the bomb.

I haven looked too close if it even remotely follows the real history of the two. Except to see that they do get married and set up their own medical research institute.

Don't plan to. Just enjoy the romp

The real M&J


Johnson just before she died this past July

Not a bad looking couple
