The intelligence of cats can be frightening at times. Studying them for any length of time reveals that they, indeed, are quite capable of learning by observation and researchers have frequently concluded that they are about equally intelligent as a 2-year-old child.

One of my cats had a favorite ...

OK, in my case I wasn't castrated, but I had a prolactinoma which reduced my testosterone to sub-female levels. I did not have erections. The tumor went undetected for 15 years (very slow growing tumor) before I was finally diagnosed and treated. After treatment, and HRT I have erections again, but ...

My wife has been treated with Xolar for allergies. Xolar is a form of recombinant mouse DNA, although the company that made it found that they could get the same results and better production quantities using Chinese hamsters. It has worked wonders with the allergies, and, so far, my wife has not ...

I have felt for some time that the stone age "Venus figurines" (Venus of Willendorf, etc.) were not fertility cult objects but represented the female ideal for the men of the time. If you could have a fat wife you were a good hunter and good provider. As such, they were small so that the hunters ...

I'm on it right now. I woke up a month and a half ago and I couldn't pee. It got painful so I went to the ER and they put in a catheter. That stayed in 10 days until I could get to see the urologist.

Right up until my prolactinoma made me impotent, in my 40's, I was able to have intercourse to orgasm six times a day, and could masturbate to ejaculation at least eight times a day.

Don't forget that while there is a measurable decrease in ...

I'll take my chances with the testosterone. By the time my father reached my age he had three open heart surgeries. He ended up having four, including a valve replacement and a few catheterization procedures for good measure. (He died of of pneumonia not heart failure.) I have not had any such ...

One day while working in the yard, I had to go inside to relieve myself. I was standing in front of the toilet and I was tired enough that I put my right hand against the wall to steady myself. Our hand raised kitten came in to use the cat box that was along side the toilet. He looked at me for a ...

A doctor once told me that if you get up to pee in the middle of the night, after age 40, you should sit to pee anyway. He told me that the most common cause of injury to men, after age 40, is loss of hydrostatic pressure in the body when draining the bladder in the middle of the night causing a ...

Amazing is right! The unfolding of the plot was not what you expected from the trailers. Viewing it was even more intense since I went to see it with a friend who is a recovering alcoholic.
