Finally Something To Make You Forget About (Bad) Sex

D.C.

B-Take: You have to have a rare neurological disorder (called TGA). But if you do, there's a good chance after sex you'll completely forget you had it...along with who you had it with, and how much you regret it. Seriously. Say goodbye to guilt or disgust.

B-Take: You're in bed sleeping peacefully when suddenly you're startled -- not by the alarm clock but by the crazy neighbor who, inconsiderately drunk, drives his SUV through your livingroom and into your bedroom... pinning you to your wall before rescuers can extract you. It's only a dream, of course...not. Not if you live in a small Nevada town and the driver is a freaked-out waste who thinks he's driving into his ex-girlfriend's house. What happens in Las Vegas Sparks, Nevada stays in Sparks?...see the full story.
