Phone sex

ain't what it used to be. Not that I'd know of course; I'm going by what I've heard. (boom boom, cymbal tap).

Nope, these days, with picture phones and such like, one can dispense with all that $4.99 a minute heavy breathing and get images beamed across the ether straight into your palm.

Quite why is another question. Not that I've gone looking in years but they do still print paper magazines with those images don't they? Certainly if you have a computer and an internet connection you can find all the imagery you want.

The latest set of late night ads on TV here in Phoenix are for the 'Aussie Babe' phone line. Curvaceous young things wearing scanty bikinis with the Australian Flag printed on the fabric. Guess what the 7 pointed star covers in the bikini top?

The voice over is almost authentic. There are a couple of words that don't sound right; revealing the voice actor as an imitation but I'm sure it'd fool all the locals, or at least those of the locals who know what an Australian is supposed to sound like!

The punchline is original! 'Come see what's really downunder'.
