Peronel.
103 would never do that - the RCC says he can't! And so consequently no one that righteous would ever dare to defy the church!
Yeah, right.
I just hope his attitude towards women opens up a little bit, or I really do think in the face of a nekkid woman his bits will retreat back into his body forever and a day!
Ah but 103's not a member of the RC church yet, and (based on what he's said on other threads) will only feel obliged to follow its teaching once he joins. That's apart from the teachings he wants to follow.

Gort, sometimes the Ship provides Too Much Information™ on certain matters but this account of your experiment has been most interesting!
The "little blue pill" doesn't provide the actual stimulus. It just, errm, sustains it once started. As you have found to your cost! ![[Eek!]](eek.gif) But there are other, second-generation, medications out there for your condition that have fewer restrictions and different ways of working - perhaps you should take advice on them?
Not that I, errm, know anything about this personally, errm, you understand...

Oooooo! Is it on DVD?

Gort--
"Do not go quietly into that good night . . ." Make a trip to your physician and have a couple blood tests done, especially checking for free testosterone. If it's low, there are patches and gels that can be applied externally that will supplement what your body may still be making. There's a lot to read up on. Do a Google search on andropause and see what info you can find; there's a wealth of it. There are treatments and things that can be done. You do not have to take this lying down (so to speak--). And don't let ANYONE tell you it's all in your mind, because it isn't.
The blue pills are a start, but if there is a next time, try half of one. They are not a permanent solution, either.
Don't ask how I know about these things. (I'll have more info when my package comes from the pharmacy . . .)

Since I'm being pressed for details and I haven't the inspiration to spin this hideously tangled web further, it's time to confess that I'm a fraud.
I concocted the whole mess from my feverish imagination. Forgive me. The only drugs I take are 80mg of aspirin before bedtime and my daily infusion of transdermal nicotine...and, well, a few shots of single malt.
My parts are all in working order, except for a few remaining neurons that have a problem with short term memory.
I'll just go buff my exoskeleton now.

If it's trolling you're doing you should hook the fish first. Unless you think that ye short arm qualifies as bait?
An eighty year old man goes to see the doctor. "Doctor" he says, "I'd like some Viagra". "Sure thing", says the doctor and starts writing out a prescription. "Another thing, Doctor, can you get them to cut each pill into eight portions?". The doctor looks concerns and says "I'm sorry, sir, but an eighth of a Viagra tablet won't be sufficient to give you the sort of erection necessary for sexual intercourse" "Intercourse, Shmintercouse" says the old man. "I'm eighty years old and have great-grandchildren. Why would I want to have intercourse! I just want it to stick out far enough that I don't pee on my shoes any more"

Yeah yeah, Gort, that's what they all say when they've revealed too much. I made it up. It wasn't me. I adopted my neighbour's personal history for a bit of a laugh. See you (or not) at the next shipmeet.

And you know this how? I mean, at your age, still suffering adolescent acne, you have how much experience of things coming back at you later in life? From my position, you have no later in life. And on a thread like this one, you'd be advised not to parade your experience -- or lack of it: someone might mock. In love, of course.

In my experience the JR deals with the tumescence... so if it's embarrassing/unwelcome, quick dash to the loo and all's well. Maybe that's just me!

I'll sell my only spinning wheel,

Judy Collins recorded that song, and I think it's spelled "Shularoon" on the album "Golden Apples of the Sun." And I think she sings "sword of steel," but I'm not sure of that.

I've spent way too much time around penguins, both in their native habitats and at the Aquarium. In short, the penguins are sex obsessed little creatures, and careth not about the JR when they could be having it away instead.
I kid you not when I say that only last weekend I had to vehemently agree with a five year old (who I had taken to the Aquarium) when I said "YES! THAT'S ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! THE MOMMY PENGUIN *IS* GIVING THE BABY PENGUIN A HUG!!!"
Oh, the humanity. Every parent around me immediatley told their small child the same thing. Loud, rutting jackass penguins. My eyes! My eyes!

Probably someone who wants his body to work like it did even, maybe, three years ago? That's why you get tested. There's no reason not to seek treatment. Women get HRT. Why not men? I'm not advocating anabolic steroids, but treatment by a physician, specifically an endocrinologist. The injections supposedly don't work all that well, lots of ups-and-downs, implants are more of a big deal with outpatient surgery. Topical application is said to work quite well.
But, then, I wouldn't know this by personal experience. Or readily admit to it, anyway.

The point is that I get treatment because my body doesn't work properly. It never has.
I am just saying be careful what you advise, because if you get too much testosterone your risk of prostate cancer increases.

I'm in total agreement here-- taking testosterone treatment is, quite literally, using steroids. In the US, they're considered a Class III pharmaceutical (abuse-equivalent to things like morphine painkillers, amphetamines, tranquilizers, etc.).
I was given a quite thorough digital exam and a PSA. I was tender for 2 days, but there was only slight enlargement (I'm 52) and the PSA was normal. I wouldn't use anything like that without thoroughly discussing the side-effects and without researching what I'm about to get into. Considering my behaviour in the 70's, this is quite an about-face for me. But even then, I was always careful to read up an what I put into myself. The PDR wasn't widely available then, but was usually around a large university library, so research was possible.
Frankly, I don't like putting foreign subtances in my body, but given the choice between, say, a stroke from uncontrolled hypertension, and tampering with the angiotensin in my system, I'll choose the latter. It's all risks. You weigh the odds and takes yer chances. I ride a motorcycle,too.

They do indeed, and it increases their chances of having heart attacks, strokes, blood clots, and breast cancer. My mother has had both breast cancer and uterine cancer, so it's going to take more than hot flashes to get me onto HRT.

Some commercials are well worth watching in themselves.

Since you were jaust extracting the urine though I will not suggest that the offending structure be used as a handy orange juicer.
OK

Without stupid people we would have no one to laugh at, so take time to thank a creationist for their contribution.
