If only .net were available, but no such luck.

.biz, .tv, .cc and .bz are available, but those all blow.

  • John Billings, 89, Creator of Contraception Method, Dies


    By MARGALIT FOX
    Published: April 4, 2007
    John Billings, an Australian physician who more than half a century ago developed a natural contraception method endorsed by the Roman Catholic Church, died Sunday in Melbourne. He was 89 and a lifelong Melbourne resident.

    A neurologist by training, Dr. Billings began investigating natural contraception, that is, techniques not relying on devices or drugs that block conception, in 1953, at the request of the Catholic Marriage Guidance Bureau in Melbourne. Working with his wife, Dr. Evelyn Billings, a pediatrician, he created what is now known as the Billings ovulation method, or the Billings method. The method relies on a woman’s ability to sense changes in the amount and texture of her cervical mucus, which help predict ovulation and fertility.

    The Billings method is used in more than 100 countries, said Sue Ek, the executive director of the Billings Ovulation Method Association U.S.A., based in St. Cloud, Minn. It is the only government-sanctioned form of natural birth control in China, where it is used by more than four million couples, she said. (The other two approved birth-control methods there are the pill and the intrauterine device, Ms. Ek said.)

    Advocates of the Billings method say it is more accurate than earlier natural contraceptive methods, chief among them the rhythm method, in predicting when a woman will be fertile. The rhythm method uses a woman’s menstrual history and the calendar to predict statistically when her next ovulation will take place. But many women have irregular menstrual cycles, Ms. Ek said, making precise prediction difficult.

but here's the best part:
  • Besides his wife, the former Evelyn Thomas, whom he married in 1943, Dr. Billings is survived by eight of their nine children,

False. I was talking about taking a leak the whole time. You brought up no. 2.

Most days on the FB you get tits, ass and television shows. Most people are happy.

Other days you get a lot of soccer posts and about three people are happy.

And rarely, just rarely, you get nothing but cervical mucus and ratemypoop.com. Those are the days Hank and Thurgreed post a lot.

Altitude sickness?

Every cheerleader pyramid needs a strong base?

She has more cervical mucus than she knows what to do with?
