                                              July 2008

The Brits have declared the last day of July to be National Orgasm Day. Well, Gordon Brown didn't declare it, nor did Buckingham Palace. In fact, it was probably decided by someone in no position of authority whatsoever.

In the spirit of blissful ceremony with which it was intended, let's make the most of this occasion. It does, after all, have a very auspicious name and a sweet ambition.

Here are the conditions for celebrating National Orgasm Day. Considering it is not entirely official, it doesn't have to be limited to one day, nor for that matter, to one nation. Don't distinguish between orgasms (you heard me, Dr. Freud!)

Take the whole month to find it, remember it, fix it or just plain celebrate it. If that works for you, we'll declare the same cause somewhere else next month.
