Folly and the Beav

If you're not a hunter or fisherman, you probably don't spend much time perusing magazines devoted to the same. Some of the advertisements in the magazines can make a woman blush. Towards the back of the magazines you'll find a plethora of male-enhancing devices and supplements as well as the ubiquitous little purple pill. And of course there are some very innocuous ads that only in a male's mind can turn X-rated.

Take, for example, an ad for beaver blankets. The picture shows a woman sitting by a fire reading a book with a fur lap blanket covering her from waist to foot. "Luxurious lap blankets, pillows, and slippers handcrafted of premium northern beaver furs. The perfect Adirondack touch."

My smart-ass of a husband told me about the ad by saying, "A great way to keep your Beav warm." "From one beaver to another." "What a great beaver shot."

Leave it to a man to turn things around to sex.

  2. If that add was with all other...um...adds, my mind probably would have gone there too. (Yes, sometimes I roll around in the gutter) Okay, mostly I relate this to - several years back a young girl in our community sent her pic to a "girly" magazine and the title of the section that accepted such pictures was titled ?? Eager Beaver or Beaver something - so thats why I would associate the Beaver Blanket with what your hubby said. So I see I'm rambling now -- leaving

  5. Well, thanks to my absorption of athletic dept testosterone, I would have gone there with your husband and begun giggling suggestively. It's how I roll. {sigh} I wore a new pink top to work the other day in an effort to be more feminine. You can imagine what it made my crew think of...
