Back in October I unveiled a new feature–herein renamed “Quick Jaunt“–where occasionally I will attempt a relatively brief blog post.
The benefits of this journalistic technique are both obvious yet elegant.
I’m not asking you to commit to a long term relationship as you scan the Blogosphere for something worthy of the few minutes you have where your boss is not walking behind your monitor–boss meaning at your place of employment or, in some cases, your spouse (”no dear, I am ordering your Christmas gift online…really”).
And, it frees me up to peruse the world wide web to find a global humor adventure blog that is in fact actually entertaining .
But obviously the terms “attempt” and “relatively” are, well, relative.

But I am a little confused on one fact from the story,
“The kiss reduced the pressure in the mouth, pulled the eardrum out and caused the breakdown of the ear.”
It is not clear to me whether the injury occurred from sucking or blowing while kissing.
They must really be serious about their kissing over at Guangdong, China.
How about you just throw me a kiss from over there, darling?!?
