She doesn’t look 34 either.

I cannot for even a moment fathom letting somebody near my penis with a needle unless it was for something actually medically necessary.

Especially not that lady.

The article garbles BoTox and silicone, so I wonder how accurate it is about anything else it’s reporting.

Every time I see one of these person has plastic surgery on stranger’s kitchen table or has their butt injected with fix-a-flat in a hotel room type stories, I sigh. How dumb can you get?

**Tom Tildrum** , this story has been in the NY/NJ news. It’s real.

Well, in their defence, it sounds like such a good idea. I mean, what could possibly go wrong?[/sarcasm]

That if and doctor says they are going to inject silicone anywhere else, it means they are a fraud?

I cannot believe that the family has supplied the press with a photo of the, uh, victim. I’d hate to be one of his kids on the playground.

Also if they tell you they are going to inject silicone around your eyes and you see Botox on the vial label they are an even worse fraud and you should run screaming into the night.
