A guy named Woods suffers from a life-threatening erection...How eponymic.

I like the NYPost headline -- "A Real Stiff Drink".

The Post's headlines have been fantastic since Murdoch took the paper over. Too bad everything else about the tabloid has gone down hill.

A law suit seems excessive.

A Stiff fine should work. :)

Only in America does a man sue for having continual erection.

And did anyone else notice the drink was called Boost Plus? Now they have a new ad campaign out of this!

"Boost Plus: For those long hard marathon sessions."

I wouldn't have gone to a hospital, I would have gone to a whore house to see if I could get it down. :D

I wonder if his wife will sue the doctors who removed it?

Yeah, but if you have to go both ways, and someone tells you the best joke in the world? Laughing and having to do both numbers while maintaing wood is pretty painful.

It may be funny, but can you imagine people's reactions, especially from Mother's with kids?

I had to read that three times to make sure I'd fully understood, and when I got myself convinced I had, I felt like crawling back to the stem cell thread... XD

Oh well, at least I'll have something to laugh at, tonight. :D

Hey, why's he annoyed? He can cross the finish line about 5 inches sooner then the rest of the people!

Fall over forwards could be quite unpleasant though.

Kid: "Mom, what's that?"
Mom: "Oh, he's just got a cucumber in his pants."

I wonder if he had bladder trouble too. This Boost Plus seems to be the blasphemous mixture of Beer and Viagra.

Imagine, though, if we had a way of making sure that the urine wasn't flammable, then we could have a measure of last resort for the FDNY...

Just a question about the Viagra commercials.

If you have an erection lasting more than 4 hours, who do you call first?

You Doctor or a friend? I say call a friend and brag about it.

I was thinking the reactions would be more along the lines of "fucking paedophile!!"

I hear the stocks of the company rising by the minute...

Myself, I´m getting one of those.

Stocks or drinks?

Personally, I think we should stock up on bonds for this purpose.
