Getting Touchy-Feely With Tablet PCs

donnacha writes "Yahoo News are currently running a story, Tablet PCs gaining momentum, describing a renewed enthusiam among computer manufacturers for Tablet PCs, in the face of skeptics who are, apparently, abounding. The skeptics insist, between bounds, that Joe Public just won't pay the extra $150 that touch screens add. Having spent much time lusting over Wacom's $3,500 Cintiq 18sx, a combined graphics tablet / 18" LCD screen and one of the few pieces of hardware that I would consider starting a family with, I beg to differ. Combined Graphic Tablets/LCD screens are a dream come true for artists and the rise of the Tablet PC might be exactly what's needed to drag that magical match down to reasonable, commodity-level pricing. Question is, will the screens used come anywhere near the Cintiq's 512 levels of pressure sensitivity?"

    A professor at the University of Mississippi is giving a lecture on the supernatural. To get a feel for his audience, he asks: "How many people here believe in ghosts?" About 90 students raise their hands.

    "Well, that's a good start. Out of those of you who believe in ghosts, do any of you think you've ever seen a ghost?" About 40 students raise their hands.

    "That's really good. Has anyone here ever talked to a ghost?" 15 students raise their hands.

    "That's great. Has anyone here ever touched a ghost?" 3 students raise their hands.

    "That's fantastic. But let me ask you one question
    further... Have any of you ever made love to a ghost?"

    One student way in the back raises his hand.

    The professor is astonished and says, "Son, all the years I've been giving this lecture, no one has ever claimed to have slept with a ghost. You've got to come up here and tell us about your experience."

    The redneck student replies with a nod and a grin, and begins to make his way up to the podium. The professor says, "Well, tell us what it's like to have sex with a ghost."

    The student replies, "Ghost?!? From ah-way back there ah thought yuh said "goatse"!

    One day while I was surfin' round the internet
    I came upon I sight I know I won't forget
    A naked man with anus stretched there was no doubt
    That he had nearly turned his colon inside out!

    And I said GO!
    Go goatse go, go!
    Go goatse go, go!
    Go goatse go, go!
    Goatse be good!

    I know that when he started with his streching ways
    That other people must have showed him much dismay
    But he paid them no mind and kept on streching his ass
    And now he is a hero to the public mass!

    So I say GO!
    Go goatse go, go!
    Go goatse go, go!
    Go goatse go, go!
    Goatse be good!

    So take a lesson all of you both near and far
    Be like the man whose rectum shines forth like a star
    If he can stretch his ass like that you can't deny
    There's no limit to what you can do if you just try!

    And I say GO!
    Go goatse go, go!
    Go goatse go, go!
    Go goatse go, go!
    Goatse be good!

    So when the clouds of gloom are gath'rin round your head
    And you think you might be better off if you were dead
    Oh when the bombs of stress are burstin' in your brain
    And you feel just like a ship tossed in a hurricaine,
    Just think about the man whose anus gapes so wide,
    And you'll find a source of power hidden deep inside!

    And you'll say GO!
    Go goatse go, go!
    Go goatse go, go!
    Go goatse go, go, go!
    Goatse be good!

    One day quite a few months ago I was over at a friends house,
    and boy is he a horny bastard, whenever i sleep over at his house
    me and him end up fucking all night, and if we don't, I would always
    wake up with spew all over my chest and ass. So anyway, he plays with
    his dogs big steamy cock so his dog learned to be horny as well
    so I told my friend that I needed a shower, so I go up to his bathroom
    and undress. His dog is always in the bathroom, lying down or sleeping
    so I reach down to get some soap, but I drop it, so i get down on all
    fours to pick it up on a count of it fell behind the toilet, so i get down,
    and i feel something large poking at my asshole, and i realize that its
    the dogs nose sniffing, so i push him away, but he comes back and starts
    to lick, it feels very good, i start to make noises cuz hes back there
    working my penis with his tounge, so I become more submissive and open my
    legs, that was a mistake because he got up and worked my anus, at first it
    was nasty but after a few seconds it felt good, very very good, He kept
    pumping and pumping with his big huge swollen knot, all I could feel was
    his big fucking club and the hot cum drippping down my leg. He cummed
    about 4 times, I myself had two orgasms, after he was done he backed out of
    me and I licked his steaming cock clean, then to my surprise, he stuck
    his dick inside me again but he didn't pump he just began to urinate
    and boy did it feel good, I guess he was marking his terrority,
    kind of like saying now I'm his bitch or something, I really didn't
    care, I was having too much fun, At that point the masters owner
    walked in, because he had planned before to come in the bathroom and
    fuck me while I showered, he started to laugh and pulled out his dick
    he came at me and started working my thick, girlish ass, the dog was
    sort of jealous so he came and stuck his cock in my mouth, i realized
    that I was being gang banged by a horny pervert and his dog! But I
    loved it! The three of us fucked for a few hours, after that my dick
    stayed hard for two hours, his parents found out and had my parents
    send me to camp, but thats another story..............
