the sad part about the guy with the watch is that he didn't even get to see it under the x-ray.

This is one of those stories that just keeps on giving. I hate it when my posse steals gifts for me instead of spending the money they've mooched for being my friends. With apologies to the real Ron Mexico, I would like to propose his name as a new euphemism for any situation where you'd like to take a do-over after sex with a disreputable person: I've been seeing Ron Mexico.

I propose settling this the old-fashioned way -- by simply busting a cap in someone's ass.

Or: "it burns when I pee, time for a stop at the Ron Mexico clinic..." "free Penicillin and Valtrex to the first five people who show up and say: Ron Mexico sent me..."

Gives new meaning to the ol' "bump and grind", doesn't it?

It does happen, I remember when Magic Johnson got sued in a similar claim...and they do have a point on the consent issue. Probably not too many people would consent to sex (unprotected or otherwise) with someone if they were casually informed beforehand: "by the way I have HIV" or "by the way I have herpes." It actually reminds me of the old hairpiece/herpes Cheech & Chong bit...

Sounds like she's a sore loser STD's are only not funny when they happen to you. Rest of the time, comedy gold.

...think of them as God's way of punishing the sexually active.

I remember when Vernon Maxwell got tagged for this a few years back. Currently in Toronto, Morris Peterson has been accused of the same. Hey, it's going around. (ba-dum-cha!) In other news, Jose Canseco was formally charged with knowingly giving someone a headache.

And she's a health care worker. Maybe she thought he was a virgin? You know, it's tough to meet girls when you're an NFL quarterback.

Finally, someone actually catches something from Michael Vick! Holy shit, that's the funniest thing I've read all week. Thanks, but you owe me a new monitor. I just got done with a round of Valtrex thanks to a nice case of the shingles. Those damn things are bigger than footballs.

Those damn things are bigger than footballs Hopefully Valtrex is not a suppository.

I wonder if he was planning on attending the NFL Cheerleaders/dancers convention.

Hopefully Valtrex is not a suppository. That would've made me sad if they were suppositories.

What response were you looking for, Dad -- inconsolable wailing interspersed with cries of "why, God, why?"
