Yes, well...wait until I've had my Scotch.

Well, I wasn't...
Anyway, first tried the OED to no avail, which may confirm McCreery's point
that it _is_ behind the times. They still refuse to have an entry for 'f*ck',
interesting etymological doubts notwithstanding. Anyway, I was appalled by
the very first sentence in the wiki entry for 'fleshlight':
>The Fleshlight (also marketed as the Fleshjack) is a sex toy
>designed for use by males.
As McCreery would say, _intelligent_ design.
I don't take it that it was designed _by_ males, though.
Oddly, David ('not the Madonna offspring') Ritchie's repartee flashes light
anew now:
>What's anyone in Britain doing with ... fleshlights?
>Get a bloomin' torch is my advice.
Geary will explain if this app are compatible.
Cheers,
