I saw Spider's Erection open for The Spinners. Great show! (Everyone got completely wrapped up in the music.)

I wonder if I could get part of my nether regions encased in amber, as those radical prostatectomies can mess with you.
Amber is likely booked up for the weekend.

If erection lasts more than four hours, call your doctor immediately...

If an erection lasts more than 99 million years, call your paleontologist — although there's no particular hurry...

Dating Amber can be hazardous to your health.

“What a way to go!” exclaimed the spider.

Pharmaceutical scientists are hoping to discover the type of Viagra that spider ingested 40 million years ago. Women's groups want to know how it was possible for Amber to hang on to a male even half that long.

That's a very kinky spider, although I have heard that men often get erections as they die.

I'd like to know what Le Petomane was looking for when he found this.

Awww, fractalist beat me and the rest of the entire internet to it.
