Welcome to Buster's Blog

Irregular commentary on whatever's on my mind -- politics, sports, current events, and life in general. After twenty years of writing business and community newsletters, fifteen years of fantasy baseball newsletters, and two years of email "columns", this is, I suppose, the inevitable result: the awful conceit that someone might actually care to read what I have to say. Posts may be added often, rarely, or never again. As always, my mood and motivation are unpredictable.

It's Only Fair



State Senator Nina Turner has a great idea. Since Republican men are so very concerned with female sexual activity and contraception, Turner says she'll introduce a bill requiring men to get a second opinion before obtaining a Viagra prescription.

In a press release, she said, "The men in our lives, including members of the General Assembly, generously devote their time to female reproductive issues, and the least we can do is return the favor." (Seems fair enough to me.)

Turner said she felt compelled to "guide men to make the right decision for their bodies. Before a man takes that little blue pill, let's make sure there's a valid medical reason for his limp dick. A healthy man running around town with a four-hour woodie is just showing off and wasting good medicine."

Her bill allows an employer's health insurance plan to opt out of covering erectile dysfunction drugs based on the employer's religious or moral objections. Turner said an employer's desire for a completely flaccid workforce is "a matter of religious freedom guaranteed by the Constitution."

To ensure the medical necessity of the drug, Turner's bill requires 24 hour advance pre-screening. A man wishing to pop a Viagra or Cialis must submit to an external penile ultrasound the day before, and at the doctor's discretion, a trans-anal probe. Turner acknowledges there is no medical reason for this, but said she wants all parties "to be sure of what they're doing, and, you know, we kinda want to fuck with the men a little, too."
