Porn at the library

I saw this article a couple of weeks ago in the New York Post and I would have written about it earlier, but I was too busy being sad about the fact that Blockbuster had closed.

Now, for as long as I can remember I always felt like there was something missing when I went to the library and now I know what it is!  Porn.  It never really occurred to me whether you could or couldn’t surf for porn at public libraries, but apparently outside of New York state it’s pretty much frowned upon.  Once you cross that border and step into New York though – it’s on!

Shakespeare’s plays, Einstein’s theories — and porn queen Jenna Jameson’s steamy online sexcapades.

New Yorkers can take their pick at the city’s public libraries, thanks to a policy that gives adults the most uncensored access to extreme, hard-core Internet smut this side of the old Times Square.

The electronic smut falls under the heading of free speech and the protection of the First Amendment, library officials say. (NY Post)

The article is definitely worth a read.   My favorite lines:

• Shakespeare’s plays, Einstein’s theories — and porn queen Jenna Jameson’s steamy online sexcapades.
• (Text under photo) CHECK IT OUT!  Cruising porn sites, like those with Jenna Jameson , on public-library computers is protected by the First Amendment, say officials

Okay, the author of the article clearly has a some kind of odd fascination with Jenna Jameson.  The first mention seemed harmless, but going back twice – kind of odd.  I think somebody has a crush on Jenna.

• The looker was using library-provided extensions on the sides of his computer to block the view of his screen — which was featuring a threesome at the time — “but I could still hear the voices,” a disgusted Nazario said.

I just found it sort of amusing that the author felt the need to comment that it was a threesome as if a twosome would somehow be perfectly acceptable, but a threesome!  Dear god, what about the children!!  They could handle a twosome, but you add one more to the mix and anarchy is sure to follow!
