Night Driving by Golf Ad. Under Milkwood by Dylan Thomas is narrated by Richard Burton. I found out more at www.night-driving.com says it was shot by Noam Murro in LA.
In a world gone mad what could possibly come up that would testify to our insanity that we’ve not heard? Well, how about an auction. I’m not talking about your average auction for a painting nor even an exotic bottle of wine; but, an auction for a one night stand with a virgin!
In buying an older vintage bottle of wine, you have to be careful because of where the wine has been stored, the varietal, wine maker, etc. But how is one to attest to the virginity, other than the medical evaluation, etc. Talk about in sanity. $243,000 for a one night stand?
Natalie Dylan, 22, claims her offer of a one-night stand has persuaded 10,000 men to bid for sex with her.
Natalie who has a degree in Women’s Studies insists she was not demeaning herself. Hmmm. I wonder what one calls such? Miss Dylan, from San Diego, California, USA, said she was persuaded to offer herself to the highest bidder after her sister Avia, 23, paid for her own degree after working as a prostitute for three weeks. Now that’s the old fashioned way.
But then $243,000 probably beats what Hugh Hefner would pay for a pose.
Natalie said she had had a lot of attention from a wide range of men, including “weirdos”, “those who get really graphically sexual about what they want to do to me” and “lots of polite requests from rich businessmen”. Miss Dylan said she did not think it was particularly significant to be willing to sell your virginity and insisted that she was happy to undergo medical tests for any doubters.
She said: “I get some men who are obviously looking for a girlfriend but I try and make it clear that this is a one-night-only offer. “I know that a lot of people will condemn me for this because it’s so taboo but I really don’t have a problem with that. “My study is completely authentic in that I truly am auctioning my virginity but I am not being sold into this. I’m not being taken advantage of in any way.
And then we have the understatement of the new year as she adds, “It’s shocking that men will pay so much for someone’s virginity, which isn’t even prized so highly anymore.” You’ve got that right- on both counts!
