The Penis Book
24 journalers for this copy...
The book's explicitly obvious subject matter is treated with probably more humor than many might like, but there are some medical truths and discussions, such as turtleneck or not (the Foreskin Debate) and truth about penis size (what book on penises could skip that). There's a peek at ThePenisBook.com for anyone interested.
I love the centerfold, a collage of men of all different shapes and sizes baring it all. You don't see any faces, so it is just penises on parade. But you do see lots of expression in the way the men are standing. There is one guy with a very small penis, but nicely developed body and his hands are clenched in fists, like he is saying "You wanna dare make a 'cute' comment?"
Thanks for helping with my comedy moment!

This book has been sent to the first participant of the ring... sweetpea0678
I hope everyone enjoys this book as much as my friends & I did! :)
Thanks Rhonda :) Let me know the order to ship when you figure it out.
Anyway I liked the book, especially the pics LOL. I am still figuring out why a guy would want to pierce or tatoo that part of his body. But to each their own. Thanks SandDanz for sharing. Will go out to hfitz tomorrow.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Sorry Had to move. DC# 0303-2460-0002-9140-0776
SandDanz had originally wanted to do some sort of 'slam book' to accompany this, but had too much going on. So I thought I would add some random thoughts in this journal entry.
Zmrzlina-I read the previous journal entries when I recieved the book and your comment "penises on parade" had me giggling madly. I instantly thought of the Disney song from Dumbo "Pink Elephants on Parade". Think of "Pink Elephants" as something like "huge penises" when you read (or sing) the lyrics HERE See if you can get the song out of your head while reading the book. ;-)
There is a hilarious video about dildos. "The Dildo Song" is sung to the tune of the "Slinky" jingle (the springy toy that 'walks down stairs'). This is for mature audiences only!! There is no nudity, only the dildos and catchy 'naughty' lyrics. The Dildo Song
sweetpea0678 (TMI warning!): This is in response to your comment about why a guy would want to pierce that part of their body. I can't speak for a guy, but as a woman with a piercing - WHOO HOO!!! Alright, everyone who fell out of their chair can get up now. :-P There's a funny (I think) story about my piercing (not sexual). If you want to know, PM me.
I've probably shocked enough people with this journal entry, so I'll stop and send the book along to Breeni in the next day or so. Thanks SandDanz!!!
Edited to add a link for the "Penis Song" sung in the Monty Python movie "The Meaning of Life". (Sorry, couldn't help myself. hehe) Penis Song

I "devoured" it in one sitting. Much to my husband's chagrin. High in fructose and 5 calories a teaspoon, definitely not allowed on weightwatchers.

Released to Corry000.
I apologize for the delay and thanks for letting me read it.
It's going to be on its way to the next person in line today.
What can I say????
Its definately a one of kind of book.
I have mixed thoughts about it. A couple of things did make me giggle. I'd rate it a 5.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
I loved this book!
It's now on its way...
:)
I was expecting something a bit bigger, but still looks entertaining. I'll PM the next person in line right away since I doubt I'll hang onto the book for more than 2 weeks.
This will go out in my next batch of mailings.
EDIT: Shoot! I found this book when I was cleaning out my car. Somehow it managed to avoid my mailing run two weeks ago. I have another post office run in the works for Monday or Tuesday afterwork. I'll make sure it gets in there then! Sorry! :(
Fun book!
I've sent it on to the next person on the list. Enjoy!
Thanks for sending it, hak42!
OK, I have to say that using the ah, cock (meaning rooster this time!) BookCrossing bookplate was a lovely touch. He's never sat so proudly in any other book! This was light and fun, although not quite as funny as I had expected, but then I don't imagine men would appreciate the idea of ladies sitting around laughing at any of their...membership. :P Thanks for including me in the ring, even though I've been horrid. :blush:
This is heading off to the next person in this morning's mail.
It's probably not appropriate to call this book cute. It was fun though! The picture of the guy holding the wind up penis toys cracked me up. And let me tell you, the fold out pages of all the pictures certainly got the looks from those around me - including Noumena12 and Aceofhearts!
I have no idea who it went to after because it just got passed around when I was done with it.
I think CheriePie has it.
Hi everyone that's already journalled this! :)
Though I looked through many of the pics in this book there, and read a bit of the text, I definitely want to share it with some of my other non-BC friends, and since this coming weekend is a Pagan holiday (Beltane, which actually falls on Monday the 1st), I'll have a fun group around to laugh over it some more with. :)
Soooo, I was also one of those people who hijacked this little booklet at the breakfast table. It sure was tons of fun!!! Like HoserLauren said, it would've been a bit of a snooze-fest otherwise...
Lots of crack-up pictures and bits of interesting information - plus of course the infamous centerfold... :-)))
Awesome!!!!
Actually I have... plus I wanted to have it here during the few get togethers we've had at my house over the summer. I was planning to buy my own copy to keep in the RV and bring to Starwood with me. Since I haven't sent it out yet, and I'm heading off to Starwood next week, I'm going to bring this with me. (I promise if a bunch of wacky Pagans get too excited over it and make a mess, I'll keep this one and replace it with the new copy I was going to buy anyway. LOL)
But I just wanted to update this entry that I haven't forgotten about this book, and I know it'll be the "life of the party" at Starwood as we're sitting around listening to songs like o/~ Scrotum... scrotum... it's my wrinkly crinkly bag of skin o/~ ... :)
I'm visiting my family tonight and I'll share it with my mum and my sister (Dad's interstate so he won't be around to disapprove!). I'm sure there'll be plenty of giggling!
Zmrzlina - I just love the bookplate "pun". That had to be intentional, right? Very cheeky! (Previous readers, in case you don't know what I'm talking about it's the "Poultry in Motion" bookplate featuring a large rooster... think about it! ;) ) Even if it wasn't intentional it's a happy coincidence!
Thanks to all who helped get this book here!
The book took a trip to the hospital where Mum works to visit the filthy-minded night nurses - apparently it was a hit!
Sorry I didn't get this one on the move again sooner - I've had it back from Mum for a while, but it's a crazy time at uni at the moment and the poor little penis book just got put aside and forgotten.
Anyway, what an enlightening and humorous little book! More than anything that anyone other than a few professionals would ever need (or want!) to know about the male organ. Very thorough, very informative and VERY funny!
Thanks for sharing - this book is now off to newk.
I am now away for a few days and will not make any more notes til then. Cheers and happy bookcrossing to you all
At least I kept in touch.
Now off to breakeveryrule
Thanks for sharing and a happy Christmas/festive season/holiday/december/january to all of you
I have added to the existing bookmark a lovely bookmark from the Iranian tourist office (aka katayoun) and a couple of bonza ones made by freesia for the recent Australian bookcrossing convention. The latter unfortunately arrived too late.
I confirm that the book was posted today. 4-6 weeks at the most.
Thanks again for sharing and passing on the book.

I thought the whole thing would last longer but it was over so fast ... My surname well yes could have been listed on page 22 of the book (you will have to pm me to find out lol )
Thanks for sharing this funny read, will PM next on list . Must just add one bit I read out aloud brought tears to my husbands eyes ...hehe
