I am starting a new network, in response to myspace, face book and twitter. As above, it will be called you're a twit, and it will be the first Anti-social Network. In YAT we will not poke, tweet or tag. We will not not bother each other at all. If we need to get a message to another YAT member we could maybe write a letter. Mostly we will just wait until we run into each other at the liquor store. We won't post videos on you tube or text pictures to our cell phones. If you want to know what I looked like in high school, come over to the house and we can look at my yearbook and drink a beer. If you like, we can skip the yearbook. Now that I think about it, don't come over at all.
I have resisted a life long impulse to make of solitude a religion. But I can make of it a club.

Well, I’ve written a few pieces here on older adults and sexual behavior in the past, but this time will be a first. I was asked to review a product web site for a device to improve the male sex organs. Now first you might ask, “Can the male sex organs even be improved? Can you build upon perfection? I can only answer in the words of one of my best friends, a card carrying lesbian- (she showed me the card once) “Ewww!”
The site is found by looking for penis enlargement - URL http://www.peloop.com/.
And there you will find the most curious add I’m ever likely to send you to. It’s a very scientific description of the device a man wraps around his business and it has magnets and some other stuff in it that emits growth rays and air vitamins to not only stop the inevitable shrinkage that age visits upon our junk, but also this nearly magical device can make the whole thing work better too! Penis enlargement - URL http://www.peloop.com/ is one of those best sellers on the internet, you can sell just about anything that suggests it can make a penis bigger, or look bigger, or work better, will sell. Some people are a little shy on the computer so they might do a search for male enhancement instead of GIANT FUNCTIONING PENIS but would still find their way to the same Male enhancemment - URL: http://www.peloop.com/.
So what about the product itself? Well if they send me a free one I will give it a try and report back to you faithful reader. In the meantime I can only tell you this: The only scientific proof I know of for a device that makes your penis bigger is a vacuum pump. They sell in the backs of diabetic magazines and if you use one to draw a lot of blood into the corpus cavernosa and then restrict it from leaving with a cock ring, you’ll have a big , usable , possibly painful boner. If you have tried the peloop let me know how it worked!

A senior doctor at University of Edinburgh had an article published yesterday that warns about the menace of medicine to today's elders. The push, somewhat driven by pharmaceutical companies to prescribe preventative treatment may make the majority of healthy older adults into patients, taking drugs and suffering side effects and the risks of monitoring- blood tests, etc.
The dilemma we have to work with is how to apply the technical knowledge we have developed with values of self determination and freedom. It takes a court decision to ensure people with strong, but non-standard religious beliefs can follow them. Christian Science Practice and blood transfusions for Jehovah's Witnesses for example. What about a person who doesn't like the sexual side effects of her anti-depressants? What if she can't communicate her wishes to her caregivers? Ethics is by far the hardest part of medicine. It used to be about who gets the very limited resources of care. Now it's just as often about who gets to say "No."
