I am REALLY disappointed in my fellow DUers
On another thread I just now learned that Bill O'Reilly, purveyor of all that is good and moral in our culture, wrote a soft porn book. WHY IS THIS THE FIRST I'M HEARING ABOUT IT??????

Come on people, there should have been 5 days round the thread generatioon on this subject.

I read a little excerpt on SMIRKY BINLADEN's sig line and I'm rolling on the floor.

Let's get on the ball.

8. I listened to it on tape and do not remember that part
it was 8 CD's so I may have just skipped one by accident.

22. Franken mentioned it a lot
O'Reilly's writing style was hilarious, and Al mocked it perfectly in several places throughout the book (mostly in the later chapters).

3. Maybe you didn't hear about it because, like me . . .
when many of us think about O'Really and sex at the same time, we throw up.

Al Franken repeatedly makes fun of it in his book
I guess the prose is pretty lame.

10. There have been several threads about this, including
one about Franken playing the audio version. Talk about struggling to control your gag reflex! It's one thing in print it's an entirely different sort of nausea when you hear O'lielly actually reading it!!!! :puke: He's about as sexy as dirt.

16. What are you talking about?
Edited on Wed Aug-04-04 01:19 PM by SMIRKY_W_BINLADEN
This is one of the great works of literature. It's right next to the Penthouse Forum (not that I've ever read it ;-)) when it comes to great sex writing.

It even launched the Bill O'reilly Bad Sex Writing Awards. Also known as the BOBSWAs.

25. sorry - had a low blood sugar moment there
It IS freaky to think that some people read those things and get turned on by them and therefore somebody read his crap and got aroused. Ew. Or perhaps that never did happen and that's why he didn't quit his day job.
