Waddy, you have to take a space out of the URL. This seems to happen alot in posting links for some reason.
Try this:

http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2007/08/26/stat e/n154935D40.DTL

It is a weird story.

Sorry, the space went right back in where I took it out. In the word "state" just remove the blank space.

Oh!  Thanks!  I think!

I guess there is a limited market for such items.  I really think the title was misleading.  I didn't see anything about a saddle.

So for all this time I had assumed the fossilized walrus in my shop was a female. I had no idea it had been dis-membered. Sorry I could not resist
I am sure we will all be getting requests for fossilized walrus nuts.
Best, Evan

"The piece curves to a point and is covered with weathered skin" yum.

I actually saw a walrus "pleasuring" himself at the San Diego zoo when I
was a kid. I was with my parents. I'll never forget that.

Hesh, I'm pretty sure the walrus himself didn't have any micromesh.

Waddy, I don't think you want to know the details.

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know we were talking about personal acquatenses. I would have been more discreet!

So that's what they meant by that. Now I know where he gets his
confidence.

Probably very uncomfortable

I was really hoping to stay out of this one also but....

In actual fact, most mammals do have a bone "in that location". Look up "os penis" for further information.

The biggest thing I've learned from this thread is that Rick truly is a rascal and a breath of fresh air. But this is nothing like the fart thread of about 6 months ago in the OT section...or will it achieve a new level!?
