Just as I was finishing my email and getting ready for bed, I got this article from my friend Bawb the Revelator:
Man With Faulty Implant May Not Get Cash

PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- A former handyman from North Providence who won more than $400,000 in a lawsuit over a malfunctioning penile implant may not get the money after a judge dismissed his claim.
Superior Court Judge Edward C. Clifton on Monday granted a request by the implant manufacturer's insurer to dismiss Charles "Chick" Lennon's claim, which his lawyers say will amount to $1 million with interest included.
The implant has caused Lennon to have an erection for 10 years.

Do you have Chick's number ...?
LOL. Yeah, my first thought was, dude, you're SUING over THIS?! That's more like 10 years of non-stop action and bragging rights. William Burroughs' Steely Dan references aside. On the downside, it sounds dangerously like a Japanese horror movie theme.
When my friend sent me the email it arrived under this heading:
"I'm ready ALL the time, bitch..."
I have noticed, when googling news items for "penis" it never seems to be good news. I can't bring myself to google "vagina."
