Disturbing Dreams

Preparing for a 7 hour slumber, I enjoy AMC HD Commando. It is a personal favorite film of mine. While in the last act, a commercial grabs my attention :

This isn't exactly what I saw. What I saw was a 30-60 second commercial(with infomercial characteristics) for one of their products and this looks more like a promotional video, but you get the idea. Government subsidized and researched, engineering improvements for a penis enlarger is not what I really want to be thinking about right before resting my brain. I also wasn't expecting it to be covered by Medicaid. Is Viagra or Cialis covered?

Even more interesting is the commercial directing one to erectmed.com. But if you clicked on the link, a redirection to Rejoyn Medical Systems website is likely to occur. I'm sure this has some medical benefit, like not have to use drugs, but the side effects can't really be that bad right?

Vacuum constriction devices should not be used by men who may have a significant congenital bleeding disorder or a disorder that predisposes them to a condition called priapism (a prolonged, sometime painful erection lasting over several hours). Examples include sickle cell anemia, some forms of leukemia, and other blood conditions.

An erection obtained by the vacuum constriction device is not the same as an erection achieved naturally. The penis tends to be purplish in color and can be cold or numb. Other side effects can include:

• A black and blue mark or small area of bruising on the shaft of the penis. This is usually painless and generally will resolve in a few days.


• Decrease in the force of the ejaculation. The constriction band traps the ejaculate or semen at the time of orgasm. This is not dangerous and usually does not cause pain. The semen will usually dribble out once the constriction band is removed. Generally, this does not interfere with the pleasure of a climax or orgasm.

Does this sound like a good deal for $189(possibly less with insurance coverage)? The next commercial break is an ad for ExtenZe followed by the Prayer Cross. I wonder what demographic this time slot is catering to and then realize I am still awake. Hulk rest now. It's better that way.
