Prof. Ida Sabelis and her partner Joep were a young Dutch couple who never imagined they would find themselves having sex inside an MRI machine as part of a groundbreaking scientific study. They happened to know the right people at the right time. Their close friend, Dutch scientist Menno Victor "Pek" van Andel, wanted to answer a basic question that had barely been studied: what the anatomy of sexual intercourse actually looks like from the inside. Inside the narrow, noisy MRI scanner, the couple were instructed to maintain a fixed position while the system captured a series of relatively slow scans lasting several seconds each. The conditions were far from comfortable, but the results were clear. For the first time, medicine could observe in real time how sexual organs align and function during intercourse, documentation that had never previously existed.Here is the resulting paper: Magnetic resonance imaging of male and female genitals during coitus and female sexual arousal Club ONT Poetry Corner I Can't Help Falling in Love with You Every Breath You Take feels brand new I Wanna Dance with Somebody all night long Your Body Is a Wonderland, where I belong Baby One More Time and I'm completely gone Ain't No Mountain High Enough to keep me from (You're) Still the One after all these years Let's Get It On and banish all my fears I Will Always Love You, it's tragically true Oops!...I Did It Again-fell harder for you The Club ONT Jukebox Some tunes for various stages of love.

Hello, Horde! 😊♥️
Well, a new one for the bucket list - for a special Valentine's Day dinner for my sweetie, I went to Central Market and bought a couple of Wagyu steaks for both of us. I was kind of hesitant to prepare them, but I mustered my courage, consulted the Internet, and followed the instructions as written for a Reverse Sear preparation. Gotta admit, I wasn't quite sure I was doing it right when the steaks were still pretty raw looking after reaching the "probe" temperature as listed, but after searing the steaks on all sides as directed, the steaks turned out perfectly! Even Mr. TiFW - who doesn't usually like his steaks too pink/red - said his was delicious 🥳🎊🥳🎊🥳 Our Chambers stove got fixed this week, so I was able to use both ovens to make everything - steaks, scalloped/au gratin potatoes, roasted asparagus, and shrimp/lobster sauce - so that they all came out at the same time. It was great 😊♥️ Rebecca really enjoyed dinner, too - normally she just wants pizza or chicken nuggies, but she decided that eating "fancy" is good, too. Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of this luscious feast - we wanted to get down to business...

I read the entire paper, and kept a copy until a “college” stole it off my desk. The experimental write up was the funniest I had ever read. The women were all gymnasts.

General virus killers is about all I can recommend for the nose running like a faucet stage of a cold. Maybe antihistamines help a bit to prevent the post nasal drip throat irritation but I've never had them stop the waterworks phase of my colds. Other than going through a box of kleenex I don't mind the runny nose so much except when I get the PND which hasn't happened my last couple of colds, maybe the Ivermectin, or quecetin prevented that. Constantly swilling hot tea and cola or diet coke helped with the throat irritation for me.

equality is over-rated. I am not going to judge my wife if she spends the same as i do on gifts. I do ask that she give me the total that I spend on her credit card so I can pay her back, but that is squaring accounts and has nothing to do with equality.

And since it is VD, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the painting - An Allegory with Venus and Cupid by Il Bronzino.
The depiction is of Venus and Cupid in an erotic embrace. Venus is his mother for Zeus's sake!!! Cupid fondles his mother's bewb while she slips him the her tongue. AHHHHH!! There is also a representation of syphilis too so it all works out. Posted by: Tonypete at February 14, 2026 10:46 PM (cYBz/) 96

Have had magnetic attraction twice in college. One powerful eye contact for 7 seconds in a crowded room. Crazy about him altho he was destined to die in months but felt fine at that moment.
Second time less of an earthquake but memorable and I am still with him. Never in my bingo card for today or any day did I consider comparing Di Vinci's confusion, and some stuff partially correct, to a MRI of random people who volunteered. Then reading the medical notes. I am NOT going to admit this to my husband, currently watching basketball as our MRI machine is not working. Di Vinci's little squiggle on the woman to her boob confuses me. Did his women lactate with sex? Was he ghey and imagined this I wonder? Lots of squiggles. Then I look up Di Vinci and he never married and lived with a boy from age 10 as his "assistant." So Di Vinci was a pedo, apparently. One of those confirmed bachelors. No evidence of any romantic relationship with women. Hmmm. Brilliant but ghey. I now need to think about other things. Or listen to music. Or look for a MRI machine on Craig's List. Prayers for whig (and I was glad to see him post today) and for tcn and her baby grandson, and all who need them.

Mrs B gets roses and a few cards. She never asks for anything, but she likes roses, so its a tradition. There's also a pretty funny story behind it. When I first met her she smoked. We pulled into a 7/11 so I could get smokes. She was driving the 1970 chevelle she had. Anyway, I ran into the store to get smokes. I'm standing at the counter and she comes and says I need smokes too. They were selling single roses at the register, and her eyes go right to and says "pretty" or some girly shit, and right then I'm telling the dude what I needed. I yanked one of the roses and said this too, and handed it to mrs B. I'm thinking no biggie, it was spur of the moment. She says she's going back out to the car, and off she goes with the rose in her hand. I get outside, I get in the car, I look over to her and she's just staring out the driver side window but was looking up and not saying anything. Then I see it, the long stem from the rose hanging in space. She caught it in top of the door while getting in and closing the door, and guillotined the bud off of it. All that was left was this stem. Then I hear her say "my first rose". I ran back in and got another. So every year, its roses. lol

I laughed when he first mentioned marriage, and told him he'd had too many beers and to ask me again. He did. I told his highness he had to not break up with me (never a reason) for one year.8 months later I said yes. Paid cash for the ring. To arrange to have a photographer film this event would have been hilarous. Eldest son, and married almost 2yrs called me today after fishing in FL (no fish due to cold weather). He described a bridezilla friend of his wife's that has my attention for an anthropology paper. It is wild what she's demanding. We were both cracking up.

Even our home wasnt always private. Unlike most motion picture stars, whose fans seemed feel were unapproachable, everyone believed that Gracie was their friend. Quite often someone would ring our doorbell and explain that they were just visiting and couldnt go home without saying hello to Gracie or getting her autograph I suppose they felt since they let us into their homes, we should let them into our home.

There was never any professional jealousy between me and Gracie. Acts would run into trouble when they began competing for laughs. We never did; Gracie got the laughs, and at the end of the night, I got to bring Gracie home.

I was reading an article on some treasure hunter who found the sailing ship Central America (aka the Gold Ship), and, of course, the IRS gets about 39% of every treasure find. But, that got me thinking and I did some research.
Were you aware that the same laws allowing the IRS to tax treasure finds, also require you to report change you find on the sidewalk as Income for the year? (IRS Code, Section 61) . You round to the nearest dollar and are legally required to list it on your 1040 as other income. Granted, the IRS generally follows the legal doctrine of de minimis non curat lex ("the law does not concern itself with trifles"). BUT, it's at their discretion. My point is that chances are everyone in the comments section is a tax cheat. In fact, I'd wager just about everyone in the country is a tax cheat as a result of the above.

One of my current anthropology studies is when a guy buys The Ring. Then the instagram proposal like Tay Tay & that loser NFL guy. It is all instagram worthy.
My husband paid $300 for my rings & they were perfect. Small center diamond with a sapphire on each white gold band, & a chip of a diamond on the wedding band. At the time the lady was impressed he paid cash (197 I was excited, and without the wedding band it did look a bit odd. It was perfect because I have worn, since age 16, a ring my parents gave me instead of a class ring (mother's idea), a diamond with small sapphires on my right hand in white gold. At work my co-workers tell me my engagement ring was pretty. The house supervisor of 3-11 shift, a snobby woman, asked if it was a "promise ring" because the diamond was small. Instead of getting mean I simply said I think it is pretty. Told my boys to buy what they can afford like their father & they listened (rare) vs Tay Tay.

Happy Valentine's Day to all those who celebrate!
Possibly I screwed myself, I dunno. I'm so rusty at this dating thing that I honestly have no idea.... I'm, like, 35 years out of practice. I met a woman here at the senior housing complex (actually I've met several, but she's the one I like best). Thought about making her a good meal for Valentine's Day, but then I thought again... it's not like she's my formal girlfriend (yet, but I have hopes in that respect), so maybe Valentine's Day is rushing things. I made the dinner last night instead. She wasn't home, so I left a note on her door, casually inviting her over for dinner. No word. I know she's been there because the note is gone. Now I'm wondering if maybe she WAS expecting me to ask for today. Shit, I dunno. She's been over here several times for coffee, etc., so it's not like she's afraid to come over to my place. Crap, I feel like I'm 15 years old. And not in a good way. Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia at February 14, 2026 11:49 PM (IG3/x) 226

Posted by: four seasons at February 14, 2026 11:43 PM (3ek7K) In a nutshell, visit to meet her new grandbaby revealed her son had turned the condo TCN was underwriting into a pig sty and had another young couple and their dog staying in the second bedroom. I believe there was evidence of recent pot smoking, something she previously told idjit son was verboten in the condo. So, TCN was faced with the dilemma of calling CPS and taking custody of grandbaby or turning on her heel and pretending she saw nothing. I believe her absence from here suggests she's chosen the former course, so prayers for wisdom and straight paths are in order. People are shit...
