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

Four for Fridays!
I am sorry that I missed doing Four for Fridays last week I guess I stayed up way to late to remember to post the questions. I hope everyone enjoyed their New Year. Here are your questions.
1) Did you stay to ring in the New Year?
2) Who did you spend ringing in the New Year with?
3) Did you make any New Years resolutions?
4) Did you have anything to drink to ring in the New Year and what was it?
I hope everyone has a great weekend!

"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.

"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."

"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.'"

"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."

"The USA has, by far, the highest per capita gun ownership in the world. Progressives will tell you that this is what makes America the Murder Capitol of Planet Earth. But we're not, and in this devastatingly effective Firewall, Bill Whittle shows why the center of Gun Nut Nation is in fact one of the safest places in the world."

"Book Collaboration Spurs On Racine Arts Council Efforts"
From Racine County Eye:
By Denise Lockwood in Community, Arts · December 30, 2015 · No comments
"When Nick Ramsey became Racine’s poet laureate, part of his duties included putting together a book titled Transformation: Art & Poetry. The project featured 12 poets and artists, and the proceeds from the book will go towards the Racine Arts Council.
"The book features 24 poems and 24 pieces of artwork, including metal sculptures, blown glass, jewelry, photography, paintings, mixed media and print work.
"Robert Osborne and his wife Vera Scekic funded the project through the Osborne-Scekic Family Foundation because they feel supporting the arts creates a more vibrant community.
"'My wife is an artist here, and we love seeing people in the arts succeed,' Osborne said. 'We believe that this is a potential economic driver for the city and the region.'
"If you are interested interested in buying the book, it’s on sale for $40 at the Racine Arts Council, 316 6th St. A book release party is set from 6 to 9 p.m. Jan. 16 at the Racine Arts Council."

reason at all why someone would have to drive under the influence when so many options are available including this. How many thousands of $$$ is an OWI these days?

"Hunger games? 5 reasons Amur the Tiger hasn’t eaten Timur the Goat"
"Fans of Amur, a Siberian tiger, and Timur, a feisty goat that's
not seen as prey by the predator, can finally keep close tabs on the
animal buddies 24/7 – thanks to a reality show launched at the Far
Eastern Safari Park.
"The unique 'friendship' between Amur and Timur first created a buzz late last month, raising many eyebrows after the lionhearted goat refused to become the predator's lunch, and even dared to steal the feline’s bed. The goat showed no fear and the tiger seems to respect that."

How cool. If I was the goat, I'd still be afraid that the tiger might eat me on a whim.
Dear Madame Zoltar
Who's going to take care of our ailing Green Bay Packers? The Arizona Cardinals made fools out of them this Sunday past. There's only one game left in the regular season to play. This Sunday, January 3 at 7:30 pm, our vaunted Packers will host the Minnesota Vikings. Watch for the sparks to fly during this one.
Speaking of next year, Happy New Year! Now don't imbibe too much over the long weekend. It just makes you hungover and wondering who you insulted.
Are you making any New Years resolutions? My resolution is to grow younger, though I haven't the faintest idea of how to do it. I'm tired of creaky bones and achy joints. I can take any of a number of Madame Zoltar® products to ease my pain, but they don't last. So then I have to take more and more, like an addict. I want a permanent fix, like Calgon all of the time. I'll take the exuberance of youth over the wisdom of old age any day.
I sincerely hope that next year is an improvement over last. What if everyone fighting wars all over the globe just dropped their weapons and went home? What if mass murderers talked to a psychiatrist before going on a rampage? What if wife beaters and kid beaters and dog beaters sought help before beating someone up? What if, what if. It will take the Lord's help to accomplish any of those things. He has to enter the hearts of the abusers, brawlers, and killers. Unfortunately, that doesn't usually happen until these malcontents are sitting in prison. Still, I hope and pray for peace. You can kill people, but you can't kill prayers.
Thank you, my dears, for reading my blog today. I love visitors and I appreciate the time you take to read my scribblings. Best wishes for the New Year to you all.
"Calgon all of the time?" Ask madamezoltar@jtirregulars.com
Please be very careful driving on winter roads. Patches of ice and other obstacles can appear suddenly. Stay warm and take care of yourselves. You're the only you I have. I love you all.
