(You left out D.C. last Tuesday and Atlanta last Wednesday.) Hang on for a second round of promotion with much more radio, and some national TV dates out of NYC--perhaps even a surprising TV interview treat. As Al Jolson used to say, you ain't heard nothin' yet. She isn't even warmed up, especially on the East Coast. It's a brand new world. Be afraid; be very afraid. I'll shut up now so I don't get anyone into trouble.

Check out Customer Reviews Here: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/stores/detail/-/toys/B00005NEBW/customer-reviews/ref=ase_teacher1stop-20/ref=cm_cr_dp_2_1/104-8954368-2741503 These are becoming controversial in the fact that they are meant to go between kids' legs, and they are battery powered so they can vibrate. Yes, vibrate. And, the recommended age group is 8+... Sooo.. I'm wondering if that comment Tori made about the Harry Potter broomstick was a joke.. in the transcript there was a "...." after the comment, made to seem like it trailed off, like it could have been. If anyone has seen it, can you confirm an inflection of the voice made to seem like it was meant as a joke? I'm sorry, but these marketing execs are fucking paedophiles. This sickens me. I mean, the picture used to advertise the product is, well, even that's fucked up. Sorry, but Jesus H. Hell Mother Mary Christ!! stuff, micah ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 1 Sep 2002 13:42:14 EDT From: VioletLilith@aol.com Subject: *broomsticks* **I'm wondering if that comment Tori made about the Harry Potter broomstick was a joke..**-micah i'm not sure, but it is obvious that tash loves "harry potter", so i would think tori was serious???!!??? but, i didn't see the show, so, please, someone who has, let us know... *jennifer* ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 1 Sep 2002 17:23:32 -0700 From: "Missy" Subject: Re: tori's comment on harry potter broomsticks Ummm Maybe I'm too open minded...but they're just broomsticks. Geez. Just becuase adults associate it with vibrators doesn't mean kids will..Not that kids are stupid..but most of them will probably just run around with it anyways...they don't care if it vibrates or not. They are kids. It's just a toy. Personally..I don't see anything sick about a picture of a kid riding a broomstick. They make fake horses you can ride.. and lots of things. Anyhow..I respect your opinion...just figured I would share my point of view. bye!

I do feel uncomfortable putting all that personal infromation out there, though. And on another note, I picked up a couple posters of SLG at the RAINN benefit. I was wondering if there are others out there? ( I havn't checked ebay yet) The posters are double sided too. elizabeth >===== Original Message From guapo stick ===== >toriamos.com has been updated: > > Friday 30 August > > Win Tori's New Album And A Signed Photo! > > Synthesis.net is helping us celebrate the forthcoming release > of Scarlet's Walk by giving you a chance to win it, along with > an autographed photo of Tori! > >you can enter the contest at http://www.synthesis.net/contests/contest.php?cid=209 >. > >woj ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 02 Sep 2002 01:41:04 +0000 From: "micah maranda bailey" Subject: Re: tori's comment on harry potter broomsticks i'm not saying kids will associate these broomsticks with vibrators. however, a vibrating sensation between the legs, i mean, that feels good. sexually, it feels good. and for 8+ year olds.. well i think it may force the masterbation issue a little earlier than expected. i'm a chick so i don't know about guys, just what i hear... that guys start masterbating at around 10? 12? if i had that broomstick vibrating between my legs at 8, i would probably take a peek to see what's going on down there, if ya know what i'm saying. you learn from repitition.. if something feels good, i'm likely to try it again. and again. and again. i'm all down with masterbation. but for a (possible) 8 year old? i'm pretty open minded if i do say so myself. if a kid wants to masterbate i'm all down with it. but i'm not quite down with buying my kids a toy that may help them on their way, even if it is innocent. maybe that makes me narrow minded? I don't know. "Just becuase adults associate it with vibrators doesn't mean kids will." well that's the part that sickens me. adults are marketing execs for mattel. don't you think even one of them made the vibrating-broomstick=vibrator connection? By the way, i'm not upset at your reply, and i respect your opinions as well; i enjoy the discussion. =) stuff, micah ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V7 #199 *************************************
