The most widely distributed single issue of a magazine is illegal to own in most places. The magazine in question is a 1984 issue of Penthouse magazine that was wildly popular because it contained a scandalous, yet beautiful, photo spread of then Miss America, Vanessa Williams. The issue also contained nude photos of porn actress Traci Lords. It was later revealed that Lords was not yet eighteen while performing some of her early porn work (including the Penthouse photos). Most buyers did not intend to purchase child pornography, but are guilty of possession, none the less, if they still own the issue

This has been the most stressful week I can recall having in quite some time. Also, it's finally gotten Summer-level hot here in the past three weeks. I could seriously have done without that.

Small wonder I'm not in bed asleep even though I should be.

The Ostrich is farmed around the world, particularly for its feathers, which are decorative and are also used as feather dusters.
Its skin is used for leather products and its meat marketed commercially.

That is too funny.

In many traditional accounts, ghosts were often thought to be deceased people looking for vengeance, or imprisoned on earth for bad things they did during life.
