I have nothing really to say about the use of the word "scrotum" in a Newberry Award-winning book. I'm still pissed that nobody told me that some Judy Blume books had sex in them so I didn't have to sneak off and read romance novels or James Bond.

For more serious news on scrotums, let's all laugh at this man's predicament:The sole question ( Read more... )
