BMW drivers have more sex than owners of any other cars and are much
more active than Porsche drivers, a new German
car magazine has found.
The German magazine "Men's Car" found in a survey of 2,253
motorists aged 20 to 50 published in its inaugural May issue
that male BMW drivers say they have sex on average 2.2 times each
week while Porsche drivers have sex 1.4 times per week.
Following BMW drivers were Audi (2.1), Volkswagen (1.9), Ford (1.7)
and Mercedes (1.6). Drivers of foreign car makes
were also behind BMW with Italian cars (2.0), French (1.9), Japanese
(1.8), Swedish (1.6) and Korean cars (1.5) trailing
after.
Among women, French car drivers were top with 2.1 times per week
followed by Audi (2.0), Italian (2.0), and BMW (1.9)
with Porsche again at the bottom of the scale at 1.2 times per week.

Digest. Keep in mind however it is a German magazine
and last time I checked, the BMW was a German car.

A woman charged with causing a fatal car crash in 1999 says that she
couldn't have been behind the wheel because she was
performing a sex act on the driver at the time.
Heather Specyalski, 33, was charged with second-degree manslaughter
in the crash that killed businessman Neil Esposito.
Prosecutors allege that she was driving Esposito's Mercedes-Benz
convertible when it veered off the road and hit several
trees.
But Specyalski claims that Esposito was driving, and she was
performing oral sex on him at the time, said her attorney,
Jeremiah Donovan. He noted that Esposito's pants were down when he
was thrown from the car.
Superior Court Judge Robert L. Holzberg ruled Tuesday that Specyalski
can proceed with the defense, despite objections
by the prosecutor.
"A defendant has a right to offer a defense no matter how
outlandish, silly or unbelievable one might think it will be,"
Holzberg said. He added: "No one ever told me in law school that
we'd be having these kinds of conversations in open
court."
Assistant State's Attorney Maureen Platt said the defense is flawed.
"His pants could have been down because he was mooning a car he
was drag racing," Platt said. "His pants could have
been down because he was urinating out of a window. His pants could
have been down because he wasn't feeling
well."
Also Tuesday, Holzberg denied Donovan's motion to use gender as
grounds to eliminate jurors. Donovan had argued
that women would be biased and more likely to convict
Webmaster Note: Man, I'd like to be the jury hearing this case.
Excuse me judge, I think we need to hear a little more
detail on what happened the night of the crash. If you could dim the
lights and speak slowly. Thank You.

A New York court official is suing the city after a toilet he was sitting on, broke.
Frank D'Alessandro is claiming $5m (about £2.8m) following the incident last July.
He says he's suffered four herniated discs in his back after hitting the floor, says the New York Post.
Mr D'Alessandro said: "I was sitting on the toilet bowl and the next thing you know, it exploded. I was on the floor, on top of a pile of broken porcelain, in a puddle of water and filth."
He now goes to physical therapy and a chiropractor, and stretches every morning for 20 minutes before going to work. "It's a pain in the ass to do all this stuff," he said.
Webmaster Note: I'd say a lot of this story was a pain in the ass

A teenager caught stealing adult videos from a shop in Painesville,
Ohio, has had an unusual punishment handed down by
a judge.

graduating from his high school and standing in front of
the video store.
The teenager chose the more unusual sentence which he will serve on Saturday

A Philadelphia police chief has been suspended after his detectives
staking out a brothel allegedly caught him leaving
the building while he was off-duty.
Runnymede Borough officials say Police Chief James Martin Leason has
been suspended without pay and charged
with promoting prostitution.
Leason has also been charged with misconduct in office. He could face
up to 15 years in prison if convicted. He was
released Monday on a $5,000 bond.
A council spokesman said: "The mayor and council are shocked and
disappointed by Chief Leason's arrest. However,
the safety of the residents will not be affected by this incident."
Runnymede resident Dawn Coulter, 27, said: "Even my grandma was
talking about it. She thinks it's disgusting. I think
it's disgusting, too. It's hard to believe. I mean, the guy is the
police chief, and he gets arrested for prostitution. It's
very shameful."
The alleged brothel at the Arbors Apartments in Maple Shade had been
in operation since at least July 2003, Burlington
County authorities said. Prosecutor Robert Bernardi said officers had
been investigating the brothel, not the chief.
Leason was arrested as he left the apartment after "engaging in
various sex acts with one of the two female employees,"
authorities alleged.
Robert Del Sordo, a lawyer who has known the chief since his days as
a patrolman, said Leason had a reputation in
the community for "being fair and square," reports
Philadelphia Inquirer.

An Iowa man has been convicted of indecent exposure despite his wife
testifying that her husband's penis couldn't have
been seen from 35ft away as alleged.
Doug Neece was charged with indecent exposure following three incidents in 2002.
In one, a female postal worker said she saw Neece, naked from the
waist down, standing in a doorway of his home or
garage with an erection.
The postal worker said Neece had an erection at the time, reports the Quad City Times.
Neece told the court in Scott County that his clothes didn't fit well
because he'd lost weight and that he was doing yard
work with one of his children when one of the incidents was reported.
His wife Sheila told the jury that, from a physical standpoint, her
husband isn't very well-endowed and simply couldn't
have been seen from that distance.
Neece, 41, has no previous criminal convictions, but faces up to a
year in jail on each charge and will be placed on
Iowa state's sex offender registry.
