DON'T think of penises.

Residents of Oregon town say shape of traffic posts is offensive

KEIZER, Ore. - The City of Keizer is taking heat for installing a group of cement posts designed to protect pedestrians from cars, but which some say is a phallic symbol.

A total of 52 of the posts were installed at a busy intersection in Keizer and they are getting a lot of second glances.

A number of residents have complained to the city that the posts resemble male genitalia.

"I can't disagree with that," said City Manager Chris Eppley. "They certainly did not turn out the way we anticipated."

11. I took a couple of weeks off
and went camping with a new woman. My sense was that the experience would be make or break- it was break, and it was my idea. No spark, and without spark, what's left.

I posted some pics here:

Good to be back.

12. aw sorry it didn't work out

14. Kali, Kali, Kali..
I'm very surprised that you've fallen for this.

Of course they are supposed to look like penises

it's part of the fundies fertility rituals

remind people of penises and of course they will have more sex :P
