Mercury This Week in the Mercury!
Posted by Wm.™ Steven Humphrey on Fri, Sep 12, 2008 at 5:20 PM
As you nude sunbathe on the banks of the Sandy River this weekend, be sure to bring along a copy of the Mercury (to read and cover up the naughty bits). This week's top selections:
The always fascinating topic of "TEEN SEX" is dutifully explored in our annual Back to School issue, which includes an exploration of teen sex in popular culture, excellent advice for the teen looking to engage in teen sex, Dan Savage on having grown-up sex with younger post-teens, and the most horrifying tales of losing one's virginity one will ever read.
Ann Romano chases down Levi Johnston's rugged Alaskan sperm in this week's hilarious and Palin-esque One Day at a Time!
Sarah Mirk gets down to the nitty-gritty of Last Thursday, as neighbors complain that the monthly celebration is a gentrifyin' hot mess.
A super excellent article from music editor Ezra Caraeff about Portland's super excellent band 31 Knots.
What new film made reviewer Alison Hallett want to "claw her vagina out"? Find out here.
And finally in this week's I, Anonymous: A chicken owner who doesn't want to live in a world where chickens can't run free and shit all over the place.
The Portland Mercury: No one mentions Sarah Palin or makes more allusions to statutory rape than us.
