Is the idea of a Virgin Mary blow up doll that much more shocking than the reality of a baby Jesus butt plug? I suppose my hypothetical promotional tag line (something along the lines of "No matter how many times you use it, you are always getting her cherry.") exacerbated the effect. But if the twisted sickos out there have already come up with the baby Jesus butt plug, and market it in the Midwest--the Midwest!--I have a hard time believing you cannot get the Virgin Mary blow up doll in dozens of fine establishments in, for example, NYC or SF.

There's a store in chinatown that sells Hello Kitty vibrators (they're in the window of the store no less and next to the hello kitty backpacks). So when I told my friend about this shocking bit of marketing, she said that would be a tough one to explain to the kids of how the hello kitty toy was mommy's and not to be touched. Who the hell is the market for hello kitty vibrators?
And Coltrane: I'll ask the question that everyone here has let drop - why the champage lunch? Did you find a writing sample?
