Digitally Advocated and Socially Mediaized
Recently (May 10th) I posted about the irony of certain air purifiers causing smog. Well some PR hack, not unlike myself, posted a comment on this highly respectable blog to notify me about the article I linked to being corrected and that Ionic air purifiers do not cause harmful amounts of smog.
Soooo the irony today is ... I sometimes do what this guy did and it makes me sad. However, I do like to think I try to contact a bit more industry based blogs. Anywho it was neat to be contacted not by a spammer.
In today's Ironic news: A man was arrested for stealing an artificial vagina. He will now likely become one in prison.
In I miss home news: Boy oh boy do I see this catching on at the Columbia County Fair this year.

OpenSource Vagina: A Lubricant-Free, Mess-Free Design for Humans
================================================================
(Version 1.0.20070609)
The priorities of this project were, in order:
-Simulating the sensation of a vagina without the use of fluid lubricants (fluids require too much cleanup, and cause fermentation issues)
-Ease and speed of cleanup, reloading, and general maintenance
-Mess containment
-Simplicity and economy of construction
-One size fits almost all
-Minimal size
What were not priorities:
- Simulating the appearance of a vagina.
Materials:
-9" length of 2" diameter PVC tubing
-Slip cap for 2" diameter PVC tubing
-2 x 6"x12" slippery smooth flat nylon fabric
-14" of 4" width elastic ACE Bandage (NOT self-sticking variety)
-4 safety pins
-Rubber band
Tools:
-Hand saw
-Ruler
-Sandpaper
Construction:
Saw two parallel 5" slits opposite each other on one end of the tubing. Use sandpaper to remove all rough edges.
Setup:
-Cut the 14" length of elastic bandage in half (so you have two 7" pieces)
-Fold one of the above 7" pieces in half, make in to a tube by safety-pinning top and bottom together anywhere between 2.5" and 3" from fold, depending on how tight you want it to feel
-Repeat above step for other 7" piece
-Slide a portion of each of the elastic bandage tubes it's full length (4") down the slit, on opposite sides from each other. The remaining portion of each elastic tube will naturally go around its half of the outside of the PVC tube
-Fold to double-thickness each of the 12" slippery nylon fabrics, then slide the folded ends 4.5" down the two slits BETWEEN the elastic bandages
-At the opening of the Artificial Vagina, pull the excess nylon fabric over to their respective sides (to get them out of the way). A rubber-band around the PVC tubing should keep the fabric from flopping around
-Check (with your fingers or any broomstick like appendage) that there really is a clear path straight-through the vagina and all the way down through the PVC tubing
-Fill the slip cap with toilet paper, and slide it gently on the far end of the tube
-Done!
Maintenance:
After use, prop the tube upright on the slip cap to allow drainage to the tissue. In a few minutes, take off the slip-cap, throw away the tissue, and either let it dry or just reload the cap with tissue for immediate reuse.
Tips:
-It can greatly enhance sensation to put a thin spongy or fluffy material in the space between the elastic bandage and the inside of the PVC tube. This is because adds a compression squeeze to the tension squeeze afforded by the the bandage. Try it first on only one side
-Consider making two or three Artificial Vaginas to have ready in case one requires drying-out time
-Baby powder or corn starch can reduce friction in the artificial vagina
-Try different fabrics for sensation. Teflon, for instance, might be ideal in moisture repellance and friction. The main issues is how they deal with moisture; nylon tends to get a very high friction component when wet, ruining sensation. ALWAYS be sure to avoid toxic materials
-Try coatings for the fabric, spray-on (like silicon spray), powder (graphite), or soaked (hair conditioners). ALWAYS be sure to avoid toxic materials
