    China's Shenzhou-6

    Great that they're doing well in their space program, but their online news coverage is a bit odd. First of all it appears they've co-opted a pic of the US Saturn V for this page;



    Wasn't an image of their own launcher good enough?

    In addition this is just a bit more info on Shenzhou-6's sanitary equipment than I need/want to know;

      Take my word for it.
      This beats a regular Chinese public toilet by a long way.

            Not sure I understand. He only gets an erection in the morning? I guess with the time difference and all it may not be that bad a timing, but still...

                It's a delicacy here. Next time you go to a hotel in an English speaking country, tell them you'd like a nice thick slab of morning wood for breakfast.

                  Apparently you are immune to this phenomenom. Most males when they wake up in the morning get a sudden rush of blood to the penis and end up with an erection. Or most guys are just simply horny as hell in the morning and get a boner/erection first thing in the morning because "nothing says I love you like a blow job in the morning" (old MURC joke for those who don't know/remember).

                  This early morning erection is nicknamed "morning wood."

                      Oh, I get that alright, not every day, but also not only in the morning.
