"I deplore brutality," he said. "It's not efficient. On the other hand, prolonged mistreatment, short of physical violence, gives rise, when skillfully applied, to anxiety and a special feeling of guilt. A few rules or rather guiding principles are to be borne in mind. The subject must not realize that the mistreatment is a deliberate attack of an anti-human enemy on his personal identity. He must be made to feel that he deserves any treatment he receives because there is something (never specified) horribly wrong with him. The naked need of the control addicts must be decently covered by an arbitrary and intricate bureaucracy so that the subject cannot contact his enemy direct."

-- William S. Burroughs, via Naked Lunch

"All the superhero chicks I know are raving about the Wonder Rocket . . . "

Tristan Taormino on Naughty Holiday Gifts

. . . tho when I went to the store personally, they recommended the Pocket Rocket over the Wonder Rocket . . .

Tristan in the peep show.

I think Tristan used to work at the aforementioned Toys in Babeland, if I'm not mistaken . . . fellow Seattle blogger Ariel was angling for a job there, too . . .

Beautiful Readers! ("A Word to the Wise"):::Dr. Menlo is currently experiencing vast technical difficulties and expresses his supreme regret at not being able to update at least weekly--I actually have a lot of stuff in the bins, ready to go . . . but alas, they will have to wait. Please see any of the links to the right and left during the interim. (Currently I am at cybercafe on Capitol Hill, Seattle)

I have been doing this for almost two years now so please go and check out the archives, as well . . .

Yours, Dr. Menlo

It must be formally noted that both me and Tony from the Yukon are thrilled to welcome Fred Lapides to the bus.

When I wrote to Fred and asked him to tell me a little about himself for a bio, he responded:

"I am so fucking old that I am bordering on senility and have no memory of anything past the last few days. I am or was married but am unsure if I still am. I was in the army but do not recall which side it was. I have some kids. I think. But I don't know their names, how many, ages, or
genders. I do know though that I hd two cups of coffee this morning, a piece
of leftover pizza for lunch. Does that nail it down? I am going to rest so I can drive our first selectman from door to door in a few hours cause he is campaginging for re-election. He is a Democrat. The GOP guy an asshole. More goodies and hard facts to follow!"

We are pretty sure that Fred exagerrates.

Fred started out on Metafilter (where he still posts), and then went on to submit links to Craig Jensen of BookNotes before starting his own blogs Bushwacker and Good Shit . . . and yet Fred still has time to contribute to the group blogs Sensual Liberation Army and American Samizdat! Good going, Fred!

"Ye fucking gods!! Are you nuts!? Those Jesuit bastards will eat you alive!"
--Hunter S. Thompson, to me, circa '93

"Man oh man, 'Dr. Menlo.' Now there's an alternative blog. Kindness to animals, Seattle anarchists, nudism galore, SubGenius, anti-Bush black propaganda, jeez louise, Doc, that thing sure is happenin'."
--Bruce Sterling, Schism Matrix

"Dr. Menlo is one smart guy, with a sharp eye for images sacred, profane, and in between. Sometimes the doctor riffs on them, sometimes he leaves you to connect the dots."
-- Killing the Buddha

"Dr. Menlo is weblog-ilicious!"
--Fred Pyen, Metascene

"Who do you trust? I trust Dr. Menlo."
--Andrew Abb, gmtPlus9

"Dr. Menlo's links are roadmap of progressive thinking. This site lives somewhere near the western spiral arm of the sensible part of the web. Plenty of sex to be found here."
--fucker.net

"Intense blog, Doctor!"
--Jeffrey Zeldman

"Read Dr. Menlo! Support Dr. Menlo! Long Live Dr. Menlo!"
--Craig Jensen, BookNotes

"Dr. Menlo is a powerful and idiosyncratic voice."
--Eliot Gelwan, Follow Me Here

"Dr Menlo's site deserves your attension. His site opened my eyes to the still-trying-to-be-defined possibilites of blogging, and it's a beautiful thing to behold, like a cultural hub awash on the sea of information. It looks cool too, his style a breathe of fresh air. His girlfriend, Pagan Moss, of the Sensual Liberation Army, is also cool. Her blog Peep Show Stories documents her life working in the Sex Industry. Very inciteful. There's nothing more sexy than a woman who is completely comfortable with her sexuality. *meow*"
--SpankThePlanet
