 Borgnine Blushes, but He’s On to SomethingPosted on Aug 15, 2008
The 91-year-old actor sent the cast of “Fox and Friends” into a juvenile tizzy this week when he revealed the key to his longevity: “I masturbate a lot.” Don’t snicker. The health benefits of autoeroticism have been well documented, yet modesty prevents many adults from discussing such matters. Fox and Friends: Here’s a slightly dated report from the BBC: Men could reduce their risk of developing prostate cancer through regular masturbation, researchers suggest. They say cancer-causing chemicals could build up in the prostate if men do not ejaculate regularly. And they say sexual intercourse may not have the same protective effect because of the possibility of contracting a sexually transmitted infection, which could increase men’s cancer risk.

As the old adage has it, If you want something done right, do it yourself.

I knew a guy who once vowed to marry his hand as his only reliable partner.
I also knew an old guy who said if you wanted something hot in bed, then fill a hot water bottle and sleep om that.

Borgnine is one of the all time great ones, still crazy after all these years (“Marty,” “McHale’s Navy” and the G.O.A.T.—apologies to LL Cool J, another great one in the making—“The Wild Bunch”). He’s always good for a great big belly laugh, possibly his secret to longevity, which he generously shares with everyone. I went to his book signing a couple of weeks ago in Pasadena, with a very long line of fans waiting to see him. Ernie could not have been more patient, gracious, considerate and laugh out loud funny from beginning to end. Oh, and the book is a LOL great read to.

This is a conspiracy trumped up by the irreligious left to get men to defy Jesus’ teaching that it is a sin to dash against the stone and I don’t like it one little bit.
So, for the first 5 or 10 years of your life, you’ve got your folks telling you what to do with your twinkie, from 10 to 20, you’ve got “celibate” clergy and the church telling you what to do with your twinkie and, as if that weren’t enough to sort out, MSM and the Irregilious Left throw this curve.
The upshot is, my exhaustive studies have demonstrated, a condition I’ve named TTS or Twisted Twinkie Syndrome. If you suffer from TTS, try Twisted Off. Guaranteed to help you get it straight or your money back.

Ernest Borgnine at 91 is a man of pleasure. It’s too bad that O’Reilly was not the one to interview him. Imagine having Borgnine being stroked by O’Reilly’s quest for ratings.

When I was a kid, parents tried to keep their little boys from masturbating by warning them to do so would make them go blind.
Did it work? I have no idea. But I couldn’t help but notice one day when a “forever hard-on” drug was being advertised, one of the “warnings” regarding side-effects was, “may cause blindness.”
Just an observation.
Personally I don’t care one way or the other how folks “maintain” their health, or get their jolly’s. But I do worry sometimes about dirty old men on Viagra ... driving their GM “boats” in heavy traffic. Lord knows, they have enough trouble staying in their lane without drug enhancement!
Come to think of it, if ejaculation is good for you, doesn’t that mean that a forever hard-on could be bad?
Curious minds want to know.
Just kidding, so please don’t let me know.
