I sold a paperback copy of Penthouse Forum stories
You know the kind:

I never thought it would happen to me...

I go to a small midwestern college...

Does this make me an Adult Bookstore owner now?

:shrug:

7. I might have to make the trip down from Appleton
Do you just sell vintage porn, or do you have some of the more modern stuff too? And I hope you don't have it all in a little room in the back.

10. Rejected Letters to Penthouse
Dear Penthouse,

I never thought it could happen to me, but boy was I wrong. I met this woman at the church picnic and she was very attractive. Father Mylar told me her name was Carol. All the men who were unmarried certainly noticed how attractive she was, so I figured I had to make my move. Seven months later we were married, and we had relations. Wow! It really can happen to anyone!

Married and Joyful,
Hartford, CN

12. "Read and watch your world grow"
That was the advertising slogan for my competition, a Hallmark independent owned by a magazine wholesaler. They carried something like forty different porn magazines. Amazing amount of variety for a town of only 5,000.

What's long and hard and holds seamen?

A submarine.

We all live in a yellow submarine ...

17. I always thought those stories were fake. Until one evening my attractive 40ish English professor...
...told me some of them had probably happened.

Wait, did I say "english"? I meant "statistical probability". Sorry. :evilgrin:

25. Hello, fellow pornographer!
I often sell vintage porn (60s, 70s, 80s) along with true crime accounts, NFL and MLB books from the 60s and 70s, Broadway history, and Nazi accounts. Weird niche, huh?
Now you can call yourself a "pornographer"...just like mitchum! :)
