Out of curiosity what the hell does this look like to you? Does it look like a doll? Well obviously you're running in the wrong circles because this is a remote control. Yes, my un-tech savy readers, apparently in a desperate effort to compete for shelf space with the much more popular "Bratz" the Barbie people have created this little fairy creature that doubles as remote control. [Newsweek] It's called, and get ready for this: the Fairytopia Magic of the Rainbow Barbie and its little torso has an infrared transmitter that allows her to double as a remote. I think you can guess which body part you'd have to press to go down. Anyway, I digress. This thing reminds of those watches everyone had in elementary school used to confuse teachers by switching to MTV in the middle of a Nova special on algae. Ah those were the days- I guess now they'll start hiding these transmitters in all kinds of things that little kids can bring to school and then they'll have to outlaw TVs from the classroom and then teachers will actually have to explain the risks associated with anal intercourse themselves instead of switching on a video. Obviously, the consequences are horrific. I urge you to begin a letter writing campaign. Use my name if you have to- whatever it takes to make sure videos remain the primary mode of communication for topics ranging from genital warts to the hidden life of lichen. A generation of pre-teens will thank you.

i remember a certain freshman biology teacher who put the fun back in plumbing while smacking a yard-stick in her palm.
