Make Your Thanksgiving Happier

Well, if you're a woman:

Wanted: women to test new orgasm machine. No, really. An American surgeon who has patented a device that triggers an orgasm has begun a clinical trial approved by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States and is looking for female volunteers.

Anyone? Michele? Vicky? Jo? Pieter?

Meloy, of Piedmont Anesthesia and Pain Consultants in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, is hoping to find eight more volunteers willing to have electrodes inserted in their spine and be connected to a pacemaker-size machine implanted under the skin to heighten their sexual pleasure.

Somehow the words "electrodes inserted," "spine," and "sexual pleasure" don't go together for me. For Pinhead, maybe - for me, no.

The married woman who tested the machine, dubbed an orgasmatron, had not had an orgasm for four years. But during the nine days she used it, she had several.

Be on the lookout for a lawsuit from these folks.
