"VR porn is here and it's scary how realistic it is"






"Editors' note: The video above is SFW ... more or less.

"I've tried a lot of different virtual reality experiences. Some good, some extraordinarily amazing, and some terrible. But mostly good.

"I've never, however, tried VR porn. So when Naughty America, one of the U.S.'s largest pornography production companies, invited me to try out VR porn for myself at CES, I wasn't sure what to expect.

"Would I merely be a spectator in a room watching people get freaky? Or would I actually be having VR sex?

"I got my answer as soon as I slipped on a Samsung Gear VR headset and hit play on a VR porn video.

"As the Naughty America title screen faded away, I found myself transported into a bedroom. Kneeling before me was a female porn star who was seductively talking dirty to me. I looked down and saw some guy's muscular body. Well, that's not mine, I thought to myself. I was confused. Whose body was this? Then I realized, I was now this guy.

"The porn star brought in another female friend, and the next thing I knew, they were both naked and performing oral sex on this VR guy, err, me, turning the party into a raunchy threesome.

"Even though I was conscious that the two porn stars weren't actually there and that the guy's body wasn't really mine, I still thought they were real. The more the porn girls jiggled their breasts in my face and rubbed their butts against me, the more I internalized being the VR porn guy. I felt my face get flushed as they showed me their, ahem, skills.

"Things got really weird, that's all I'm going to say."

Playboy magazine will no longer feature nude women because you can get porn for free on the internet.

Deat Madame Zoltar

Hello,, my snow queens and kings!  How are you?  Did you survive the last few blasts?  We're supposed to have a warming trend with temperatures on the weekend in the 30's, and maybe even the 40's.

 "The Big Chill" Postponed to Jan. 15-17.   

http://racinecountyeye.com/big-chill-postponed-jan-15-17/

Whatever.  Whatever winter brings us.  I'm not going to complain about warm weather in the winter, but I sure can notice it.  It;s pleasant, but weird., kind of like when you receive your first massage....

The Irregular Football League may be finished for the season, but the notorious NFL keeps going for awhile longer.  Due to their meltdown at the hands of the Minnesota Vikings last Sunday, the Green Bay Packers have to meet Washington on their field this Sunday, January10, at 3:40 pm.  It's do or die for the Packers.  Let's hope some of our best boys are up to the challenge.  It ain't over til the fat lady sings.  

I have never seen or heard this so-called fat lady.  How fat is she and what does she sing?  Just another of life's mysteries.  If you fret about too many, you'll blow your stack, Jack.  Just be what it says in the image above

I'm cool, daddio.

You might even say
I'm super-cool, like liquid nitrogen..Don;t touch me, I might even break off like ice.

Thank you, everyone, for reading my blog today,  Thank you for being my friends,

Despite what happens amongst us,  we always show our love.

Why d id the terrorist cross the road? Ask madamezoltar@jtirregulars.com

I love you all.  All is love,  Thanks again for checking me out.

"Man practicing open carry law robbed of gun"

"Gresham man robbed of gun he was openly carrying"

(MGN-Online)

"Avery and Pattern or Practice"

From Pattern or Practice:

Posted: January 4, 2016 in The Film

"There is a documentary series on Netflix called 'Making a Murderer'.  After viewing it, I am outraged with the injustices which have been  left unchecked in the case of Steven Avery of Manitowoc County in Wisconsin. Avery’s unconstitutional mistreatment at the hands of corrupt local law enforcement is completely unacceptable and is an abomination of due process. However, in Racine County Wisconsin, 60 miles south, the corruption is running a similar course. Racine public officials, Law Enforcement, and State Representatives are conspiring to cover up money laundering, discrimination, racketeering and corruption all the way to Madison, Wisconsin. Only after a recent lawsuit, Holmes vs the City of Racine has information come to light. The residents of the City of Racine, are unaware of the corrupt activities that surround them as are the citizens of Manitowoc as these corrupt activities unfold in the Avery documentary on Netflix. Pattern or Practice – The Lie a sequel to Pattern or Practice is currently in production. Pattern or Practice  started out as a documentary about unfair treatment and discrimination of people of color has exploded into far more. Like the Avery documentary Pattern or Practice –  The Lie  is developing into a shocking behind the scene look at the corruption embedded in Racine County. I’m currently looking for a large producer to take this story national. Please share this post."

Interesting because I've been watching the series/documentary since kk posted about it: http://www.jtirregulars.com/2015/12/netflix-making-murderer-episode-1.html.  I haven't finished it, but so far the misconduct of the investigators is blatant.

"Chris Larsen Resigns from Sturtevant Board"

From Racine County Eye:

By Heather Asiyanbi in Government · January 4, 2016 · No comments

"Sturtevant Trustee Chris Larsen announced Monday his resignation from the village board effective Jan. 13. He sent his resignation letter Monday evening to the rest of the board and Village Administrator Mary Cole. 

"In an interview with Racine County Eye, Larsen said he is moving out of the area and expects to be in his new Chris Larsenhome by Jan. 16. 

"'I have very mixed feelings, of course,' he said. 'But I have an opportunity I can’t pass up, so I’m making the jump while I can.'

 "Larsen has been a lifelong Racine-area resident and has lived in Sturtevant since 2005. He was elected to the board in 2009 and said serving the village has been an enjoyable experience. 

"'I’m proud of our accomplishments on the board for the residents of Sturtevant,' he said. 'I’ve really enjoyed serving this village.'

"Village President Steve Jansen will meet with Cole Tuesday to discuss appointing someone to fill Larsen’s seat for the remainder of his term. 

"He was re-elected in 2015, so the new board member will serve until the April 2017 election. 

"'We’ll figure out a game plan,' Jansen said. 'I’m sure we’ll find someone to take the reins. Wherever Chris lands, I wish him well. He did a helluva good job for this village over the years.'"

"The new Miss Nashville is from Mount Pleasant"

From The Journal Times.com:

23 hours ago  • 

"MOUNT PLEASANT — Winning pageants isn’t anything new for Mount Pleasant’s Jeanette Morelan.

"Morelan, 21, a senior at Belmont University in Tennessee, was named Miss Nashville 2016 in a pageant on Nov. 8. She also won Miss America’s Outstanding Teen award for the year 2010 at the age of 14, making her the youngest ever to win the award.

"But for Morelan, the accolades and honors are about more than just external beauty.

"'It allows the titleholder to not just be a pretty face wearing a crown, but it allows the titleholder to have a voice,' she said.

"Throughout her life, Morelan has been more than just a pretty face. When she won Outstanding Teen while a student at The Prairie School, she raised more than $200,000 for Children’s Miracle Network. At Belmont, she was the school’s student body president as a junior. Over the summer, she went to South Africa, where she was a teacher and soccer coach for impoverished children.

"'I thought in a different dimension after winning that,' Morelan said of being named Outstanding Teen at such a young age. 'It’s all about the small things people can do to make a difference.'"

"That belief is what inspired Morelan’s platform for her pageants, which she calls 'the power of one.' Essentially, she tries to get people to focus on the impact that they can make as an individual on the world around them."

From Racine County Eye:

Credit - Racine County Eye

"With a glittering Lake Michigan in the background and a great variety of shops and ethnic restaurants, Downtown Racine has been named to a list of top downtowns in Wisconsin.

"The writers at OnlyInYourState.com regularly compile and post lists of best things and places to find, taste, experience, see, drink, visit … anything, really, in every state in America.

"Dedicated writers who call a particular state home write articles to celebrate all the amazing things that make their state great, and, hopefully, entice others to visit as well.
 
"Other stories that celebrate Wisconsin include the most scenic drives, old schoolhouses, inexpensive places to live, odd facts, incredible sites in winter, great seafood restaurants, and more."

All that money spent on downtown and we still only made 8th place.
