Body Double

You often hear of film stars requiring body doubles because certain bits of their anatomy just aren’t up to standard. Michael Douglas is a case in point. I read yesterday that, in the film “Basic Instinct”, the arse that’s displayed as he walks across the bedroom in the moonlight isn’t actually his own, but belongs to another, more posterially pert actor. Likewise, Demi Moore’s tits in the film “Indecent Proposal” were actually played by a model who specialises in mammary roles.

I approve wholeheartedly of this. Indeed, I feel that the concept ought to be applied in the real world, too, not just in the cinema and on television.

In my opinion, therefore, people’s individual physical attributes should be graded on a 1 to 10 basis. Bits that score 4 or below should be required by law to be hidden from public view. So if, say, you’re a woman and your knees score only 3½, you should be legally obliged to hire the services of body double. You’d then perch on her shoulders, your legs concealed by her jacket, while she displayed her own knees on your behalf. Likewise with other body parts. And if the aggregate of your body parts scores 4 or below, you should be walled up in your home and forbidden to go outside. Instead, you would be required to pay for a body double to impersonate you on a day to day basis.

Naturally, all this would be expensive. So I suggest that, when they’re young, people take out an insurance policy against turning ugly when they get older. Of course, the premiums would be far higher for those with two ugly parents, as there’d be more likelihood of their turning out nausea-inducing themselves in later life. Then again, I suppose you could defray some of the costs by agreeing to be exhibited in a freak show should this worst-case scenario actually happen.

Talking of which, most of the people in this village look as if they belong in a freak show. I must inform them of this fact. Then, perhaps, they’d agree to my acting as body double in their stead. I’d make a fucking fortune.

Are we to assume that it was Sharon Stone's chuff that was on display in "Basic Instinct"?

According to the actress herself, it was the genuine article.

IMPOTENCE – A NATURAL CURE THAT IS CLINICALLY PROVEN?
Because of the wealth of bogus products available on the internet which are supposed to cure erectile dysfunction (impotence) in men, it is difficult to believe much if any of what you read today. I am now under the impression that the little blue pills that you can get on prescription from your local GP are often found to be fake! Such confusion would even trouble the little grey cells of Hercule Poirot himself.
The secret of any such internet search is to define your request to use keywords that really narrow down the final selection. In the case of impotence, use words like clinical trial, tested and proven solution each time adding in impotence. Whilst there are many internet companies selling male performance enhancing pills & herbs or even herbs in pill form and all are suggestive or use extreme implication to make you believe they have the elixir of life, a cure for all ills. The vast majority are little more than a bottle of snake oil under another label. Another piece of advice is take time to read the claims and documentation offered ignoring the sexy pictures and suggestive copy designed to appeal to the male machismo. Dig down and read the facts available on any site offering products that improve your bedtime prowess. If this sounds like a lot of work then you probably don’t have a problem with the strength of blood flow into your manhood. If like 1 in every 5 men in the UK today you can be found wanting in the trouser snake department come bedtime, the recent discovery of Butea Superba is important news. Available on the internet in pill form under the brand name HealthyED this non chemical herbal solution has been tested in clinical trials and proven to improve the male performance in over 80% of all men that take it. So you could trawl through the net via Google search, then carefully read the documentation and decipher the validity of the mountain of claims and counter claims made. Or you could just enter HealthyED into Google search and save a whole heap of time and effort. Happy hunting.
