Night Light(TM): First Glow-In-The-Dark Condom Cleared For
Marketing by The FDA

-- Condom Contest to Light Up Sex Lives

BOSTON, Feb. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Valentine's Day is for lovers, and Global
Protection Corp., a world leader in the manufacturing and marketing of
condoms, wants everyone's love to shine a little brighter this year.
Global Protection announced today its new Night Light(TM) condom has
become the first and only glow-in-the-dark condom granted permission to market
by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for disease and pregnancy
prevention. Prior to this, glow-in-the-dark condoms have only been available
as novelties. The company also announced that it is sponsoring a contest on
the Web site nightlightcondom.co.....condom.com to give 10 lucky winners a free
year's supply of Night Light condoms. A drawing will be held on April 1 for
the first five lucky winners and again on August 1 for the remaining 5.
Winners will be selected from those who have registered on the company's Web
site.
"Couples will find every night will be a little brighter with the Night
Light," said Davin Wedel, founder and president of Global Protection. "The
Night Light will certainly be putting fun back into many couples' bedrooms.
We would like to give the phrase 'rise and shine' a whole new meaning."
The Night Light is now available at a wide variety of independent drug,
convenience and specialty stores. To locate a retailer near you, or to
purchase the condom, visit nightlightcondom.co.....condom.com. The Night Light
is available in packages of three (which retails for $3.99) or can be
purchased individually.
The Night Light is able to glow because of a technological advance using a
safe, non-toxic phosphorous pigment. The condom is made with a patented
3-layer process. The center layer contains the phosphorous pigment while the
inner and outer layers are regular latex, similar to other condoms. The Night
Light is packaged with a clear backing that when put up to a light for 30
seconds will activate the glow pigment which allows the condom to "light up"
for 15 minutes -- although it will glow at a lesser intensity for much longer.
There are thousands of jokes that can be made about the Night Light, but

Warning, warning, warning...
Duhhhhh!!!
This one on a box of Kellogg’s Pop-Tarts:
"Warning: Pastry Filling May Be Hot When Heated!"

Here’s a warning that was attached to a Bat Man the Animated Series Armor Set Halloween costume box.
"Warning: Please exercise caution-mask and chest plate are not protective; cape does not enable wearer to fly."

This one was found on a hammer, of all places.
"Caution: Do not use this hammer to strike any solid object."

Here’s one from a butane lighter:
"Warning: Flame may cause fire."

How about his one found on a box of Tampax Tampons:
"Remove used tampon before inserting a new one."

A warning on a baby stroller said:
"Warning: Remove child before folding baby stroller."

Who can forget the sleeping pill prescription that had this warning?
"Warning: this drug may cause sleepiness."

Wanted: Nudecasters

Jobs offer for journalists with nothing to hide



REUTERS

TORONTO, Feb. 21 — An Internet-based news service is looking for journalists with nothing to hide. They don’t even need experience in journalism, NakedNews.com said.

THE WEB SITE is auditioning for new, nude newscasters this week. Male and female applicants should be fit, attractive, articulate and ready to live in Toronto.
“The Webcasters we hire will give us greater latitude in reporting on news events from around the world,” said Kathy Pinckert, media director for the Toronto-based site.
“We are also being responsive to a deluge of requests from our female fans to have males present the news as well,” she added. “With men added to the program, NakedNews will truly be the news program with nothing to hide.”



The NakedNews Web site, which says it should only be viewed by people over 18, currently shows four female presenters, Victoria, Carmen, Diane and Holly. “The naked news is presented uncensored and without bias,” it says.
Pinckert said the site, which is just over a year old, recorded 5.6 million unique visitors last month, up from 4 million in December.
The interviews — with separate times for men and for women — take place in Toronto on Wednesday and Friday of this week.
“Auditions will not involve any nudity, however you may bring a swimsuit for the script-reading part,” says a recorded announcement. “Thank you for calling, and good luck.”
