Hmm, typing is not on my list of strong points today. Sorry.

I had a truly tasteless comment on this story, but then I remembered that I'm in polite company. LOL

Posted by: Siouxie in her jammies | December 26, 2006 at 01:08 PM
What if you only rent and don't buy?
Posted by: Heinrich the Lab Rat | December 26, 2006 at 01:09 PM
Have fun shopping in your jammies! Remember - gloves and tissue will help with the obvious evidence, but you have to be really clever to outsmart the CSIs.
Posted by: Clean Hands | December 26, 2006 at 01:10 PM
Hmm, prize for not buying sex after a dinner party... I seem to remember a related Korean prize for promising not to buy dinner after attending a dog show...
Posted by: Nebbisk | December 26, 2006 at 01:12 PM
No witnesses, Siouxie!
Details are important.
Posted by: Hammond Rye | December 26, 2006 at 01:12 PM
Siouxie, if you're gonna kill people here are some tips:
Wear shoes several sizes too big.
Stop at the salon and get lots of hair samples to scatter at the scene.
Leave a business card that says "My name is Bob."
Happy Hunting.
Posted by: blurk | December 26, 2006 at 01:14 PM
I wonder if these would be appealing as prizes for not buying sex after Christmas parties in Wisconsin?
Posted by: Clean Hands | December 26, 2006 at 01:15 PM
Maybe they should forget about the movie tickets and install these babies in strategic locations.
I bet that would stop all but the most daring.
Posted by: diverdowndoc | December 26, 2006 at 01:19 PM
Uh, 3D, WTFBBQ????? What are those???
*sitting with legs tightly crossed*

Finally something to kill the time as I am the only person at work today in my department

Those are old fashioned rat traps, according to Goooooooogle.
Just one who likes to keep her male patients on their toes.
Posted by: diverdowndoc | December 26, 2006 at 01:29 PM
3D, some of us are not only on our toes, but hiding in the rafters at the moment.
Posted by: Hammond Rye | December 26, 2006 at 01:31 PM
OK, blogguys, here's my plan. We register as Dave's Blog, Inc. and we all pledge to avoid brothels. When we win the thousand bucks that'll buy us 438 Korean hookers. Ya in?
Posted by: Layzeeboy | December 26, 2006 at 01:32 PM
like a guillitine for the penis....
Posted by: Chaz | December 26, 2006 at 01:32 PM
Layzee, sign me up.
Posted by: blurk | December 26, 2006 at 01:36 PM
cancels career change and flight tix to korea.
Posted by: crossgirl | December 26, 2006 at 01:36 PM
DDD, I truly like your style. Please come work with me? Pleeeeeeease?
Posted by: Nurse Tammy | December 26, 2006 at 01:38 PM
If you can reach your keyboard from the rafters, here is the original context.
Posted by: diverdowndoc | December 26, 2006 at 01:40 PM
Nope, Ain't gonna do it. I saw the medical films the last time I was over there. Frightening.
Posted by: Hammond Rye | December 26, 2006 at 01:40 PM
OK- Lazee, just remember that there are 300 traps hidden...

Quote: "Do they really think men buy sex every time they have a dinner party?"
Isn't that what you're supposed to do after having a dinner party? And then have a cigarette afterwards?
Posted by: tropichunt.com guy™ | December 26, 2006 at 01:41 PM
wow!! even with 2 robots, I had a triple simul- Howd'ya like that diver sammich Hammy?
Posted by: diverdowndoc | December 26, 2006 at 01:42 PM
:)
Posted by: Hammond Rye | December 26, 2006 at 01:43 PM
I would just go find a hooker after I went to see the movie for free. That way everybody is happy....
Posted by: Clark Kent | December 26, 2006 at 01:49 PM
PPNG should be enough of a deterrent, but what do i know, being a girl of the female type.
Posted by: wickedwitch | December 26, 2006 at 01:56 PM
3D, I don't care what that thing was intended for - every time I look at it now, it just gives me the willies. Kinda like turning on the radio and finding Manilow in full keen. *Brrrrrrr...*
Posted by: Clean Hands | December 26, 2006 at 01:59 PM
in retaliation...
"Businessmen, servicemen, and anyone who just has a
penis generally, 'come on down' to Kim Chee's House of Whoopee! We'll slash our prices to the bone, if that's what you're into, and make you forget all about those government incentives . 'Cause all they can give you is money but we can make you shout the name of the deity of your choice!"

Posted by: diverdowndoc | December 26, 2006 at 02:24 PM
The movie tickets are for Korean Porn.
3D, do those thing come in XS for the Koreans?
Just askin.
Posted by: Meditrina | December 26, 2006 at 02:39 PM
And NTTAWWT XS size.....
*snorking back a snicker*
Posted by: Meditrina | December 26, 2006 at 02:41 PM
ddd - your link sorta looked (to moi ownself, at least) kinda like dangly earrings ... but it sorta made me think of "Axis of OWIIIIEEEEEEEE" ... merely sayin' ...

Korean Porn (or 한국 포르노 - "Hanguk Porunoh") WBAGNFARG.
Posted by: Clean Hands | December 26, 2006 at 02:44 PM
On second thought, I don't know if I want to do this in a country whose leader's name is Ill Dong.
Posted by: Layzeeboy | December 26, 2006 at 02:45 PM
That's a good point OtheU- maybe some of them could be earrings, but then when the ears are near the genitals... *SNAP! Instant deterrent! And the best part is that you only have to have it happen once, then you could still visit, but not do anything. Plus, all the ED docs would have extra business! It's a fool-proof plan!
Posted by: diverdowndoc | December 26, 2006 at 02:47 PM
Diver - You are my hero; always thinking of new, creative ways to drum up business and clean up humanity.
My earrings are off to you.
Posted by: Meditrina | December 26, 2006 at 02:55 PM
3D, do you mean Emergency Department docs, or the docs who prescribe things the make the spambot go NUTSOID on me for typing them?
Posted by: Clean Hands | December 26, 2006 at 02:57 PM
Comeon Meditrina! We should set up a limp-in clinic in Korea right next to the largest brothel.
CH- shouldn't be typing things like f*expletive deleted* and s*expletive deleted by spambot who is about to have a nervous breakdown and desperately needs a gumball*
Posted by: diverdowndoc | December 26, 2006 at 03:05 PM
NON HUMOR ALERT! NON HUMOR ALERT!
Now I'm not saying that the Korean Gender Equality people are wrong for trying to keep Mr Happy from getting a little slap and tickle during the holidays, but, well, it they REALLY wanted to keep the brothels unemployed, why not pay the prostitutes to stay home?
Wouldn't that make more sense? The government could give them all a year end bonus for a job well done, movie tickets, flowers, a really good meal, shopping coupons and a day at a spa, have somebody take care of them for a change. Now THAT would be gender equality!
Posted by: Annie in Texas | December 26, 2006 at 03:08 PM
Annie, you are abolutely right. however, you are probably only 50 years ahead of your time. instead of attempting to legislate morality (which never has worked), why not govern with common sense. oh, never mind, i am talking about politics and common sense and those things should never be written in the same sentence. maybe the damn bot will blow up.
Posted by: wickedwitch | December 26, 2006 at 03:14 PM
In the real world, the prostitutes would take the bennies, and then head back out to the streets to carry on with their business. Complex problems rarely yield to simple solutions, regardless of who benefits from those simple approaches. :-(
Posted by: Clean Hands | December 26, 2006 at 03:19 PM
CH - You are right. Baby has to eat. Mama needs shoes. The harsh reality.
Posted by: Meditrina | December 26, 2006 at 03:22 PM
In the sugar-coated utopia I occupy, of course, this would be a matter of two people making a business agreement that happened to involve the exchange of sexual services for valuta.
Of course, in the grit of the real world, there's often a lot more coersion than that involved, sadly, and that is what I'd prefer to see gov'ts focusing their efforts on, instead of making moralistic judgements and attempting to enforce them.
Posted by: Clean Hands | December 26, 2006 at 03:33 PM

ch, so you're saying they should get married?
Posted by: crossgirl | December 26, 2006 at 03:40 PM
kudos, CH. won't happen in our life times though!
Posted by: wickedwitch | December 26, 2006 at 03:41 PM
cg-you get a large SNORK for that observation!
Posted by: wickedwitch | December 26, 2006 at 03:42 PM
Hmmm... I guess that's how some marriages work. Most, not so much, though, in my observation.
Posted by: Clean Hands | December 26, 2006 at 04:00 PM
Come on, CH. You're telling us that you haven't ever cleaned the kitchen, so you could get a little action?
Posted by: Meditrina | December 26, 2006 at 04:04 PM
Let the record show that the accused stood mute.
Posted by: Clean Hands | December 26, 2006 at 04:22 PM
diver-those look too cruel, even for a rat ;-)
Posted by: Lisa Bisa Fo Fisa | December 26, 2006 at 04:25 PM
I'd think about paying for it, but I've got two more American Idol Barbies to open before the New year, don't guess I'll have time 'tween now and then....
Posted by: russell | December 26, 2006 at 05:07 PM
So regarding the grand prize:
Would we win one million won? And if it happened that we all won, we won one million won? Is that one millon won is available for winning? Or is it available to be won? Can we all win, therefore we all won? If we don't win, can we find out who won?
Who's on first?
Posted by: qsman | December 26, 2006 at 05:17 PM
Not to brag or to try to make all of you jealous, but we had chips AND dip at our last office party. Like three kinds of chips and TWO kinds of dip. Seriously.... It was way crazy.
(Never occurred to me to bring hookers, though. BRILLIANT!)
Posted by: Clark Kent | December 26, 2006 at 05:48 PM
qsman -- shouldn't your question read ... Hu's on First ... ?

Double [accidental?] *snork @ DDD, for ED, followed by 'limp-in!'
On the subject of prostitutes, my travels have brought me to Hilton Head today. That's a noun, right?
Posted by: CJrun | December 26, 2006 at 06:42 PM
And as we drift off-topic, let us take a moment to remember James Brown.
Posted by: Guin | December 26, 2006 at 08:05 PM
Well Clark, you ARE in H.S. That would be considered kinda wild here. And pay for s3x? People do that? Who knew?
Posted by: Jazzzz | December 26, 2006 at 08:10 PM
It would OtheU- we have to learn how to play our tuning forks in Unison. Our first song would be "Is that an HMO card in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"
Our encore should be, "Malpractice Blues"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Posted by: OtheU(manity) | December 26, 2006 at 09:51 PM
For DDD (from Elvis) -
Well, since that lady cut me,
I've got a new place to heal,
It's down at the end of my happy place
And the pain is quite unreal.
Don't call me 'Shorty,' baby
Don't call me 'Shorty,'
Don't call me 'Shorty,' or I'll cry.

Posted by: CJrun | December 26, 2006 at 10:13 PM
off topic;
at the penneys in washington square or i heard one of the best cell phone lines ever. a woman said, at full volume," I don't let diarrhea get me down!"
i hurried to the stockroom to snork in private.
Posted by: tarzina | December 26, 2006 at 11:21 PM
*snorks* all around!!
Well I'm back from shopping hell and here to report that no one was hurt in the process. There was a small incident where I almost beat up this guy for continously yelling at the customers in the discount shoe dept.- "IF WE SEE AGRESSIVE BEHAVIOUR WE WILL ASK YOU TO LEAVE. PLEASE PLACE SHOES BACK ON THE SHELVES".
I almost put HIM on the shelf....but then my eyes were diverted to a pair of tan designer leather cowboy boots that were on sale for $19.99 ..THEN 1/2 off!! MY SIZE!!! TEN BUCKS!! so I forgot about the annoying little man.
Saved by shoes...another heartwarming Christmas story.
Posted by: Siouxie | December 26, 2006 at 11:27 PM
Sioux - a Christmas miracle if I ever heard one. Please see my previous post regarding shoes.
I am immersed in 24. I have no cable or tivo, so when the "season" is released, I am in heaven. My own Christmas miracle.
Jack is such a stud. If I were his publicist, he would never have been photographed wearing tighty whities! Boxer briefs, baby.
Posted by: Meditrina | December 26, 2006 at 11:38 PM
A sucessful shopping experience for all. Then to top it off, we saw "C@sino Royale". I'm still wiping off the drool caused by a semi-nekkid Daniel Craig. I'll take HIM shaken...not stirred ;-)
Posted by: Siouxie | December 26, 2006 at 11:42 PM
Med, mama always needs shoes ;-)
And Jack is indeed a stud!!! I can't wait for the new season. I was not a huge fan till this blog.

On a brighter note, they didn't comment on the booger content.

OMFG! Jack is such a patriot that he is making me, you know, hot..... under the collar, of course.

Posted by: Siouxie | December 27, 2006 at 01:04 AM
Siouxie - "Your country is about to pay a very steep price." Is that why gas was $3 a gallon? I had no idea jack was involved!!! I am sending him the bill, and I pray to God he pays in person. ;-)

Well then Happy St. Stephen, stevie...be as cranky as you want...
I'm with you, O...stayig away ;-)

Posted by: Siouxie | December 27, 2006 at 10:36 AM
... um ... Siouxie? Sum folks consider "Love" to be merely another four-letter word ... merely observin' ...
Posted by: OtheU(manity) | December 27, 2006 at 11:47 AM
O?? but isn't that all you need?
