Sometimes I wonder about the world we live in. Especially when I start reading about the perils of [Nude firewalking](http://www.sacbee.com/news/calreport/calrep_story.cgi?N323.HTML). What an interesting country we live in. ---

I’m a little more disturbed by the concept of nude sky-diving. Doesn’t a parachute count as clothing? You wear it, afterall. Posers. ---

I am reminded of the time when bunjee-jumping was a new craze. Invariably there was someone who had to do it nude. I could never fathom the motivation for this. Surely the sheer blinding terror of freefall, then the sudden gut (and spine) wrenching rebound was enough of a rush on its own. How could being naked add any additional adrenaline at all? ---

I’d heard that one on the radio this am. well, some folks have a bit too much time on their , um, hands… I’d actually seen a couple links (don’t have ‘em anymore, sorry) for the nude sky diving. in one, the male’s penis was a flappin’ in the wind. couldn’t have felt good. or, maybe it did??? Anyhow, in the other, the woman’s breast was concave from the wind sheer. Now, THAT, I KNOW couldn’t have felt good. ---

I take it that these people just burned their feet. They didn’t _fall_ naked onto the hot coals, right? Why the hell would you want to do that anyways! Dumb asses!
