That didn't come out right!

What I mean is, in this recessive (and depressive) economy, sex is the one activity we can do by ourselves or with others that's not taxing on the wallet.

So, are we having more sex?

The response seems to be mixed. Some are saying yes -- people are staying home more -- not going to the movies, not going out to dinner, not shopping. And, as long as they're home...

But I've also heard some say that sex, like the stock market, is down. Bad economy, low morale... It lowers our self-confidence, sex drive and you know what else... How can you feel sexy or virile when your 401-k is deflating?

We're just going to have to snap out of this! The economy will rebound, but like a good love-making session, it's going to take some time.

So, maybe a few "toys" ARE in order. You don't have to spend a lot of money -- and think of the "ROI" -- Return On Investment! And maybe it will help take your mind off your troubles, at least for a little while!
