Antarctica base gets 16,500 condoms before darkness

Mon Jun 9, 1:24 PM ET

WELLINGTON (Reuters) - One of the last shipments to a U.S. research base in Antarctica before the onset of winter darkness was a year's supply of condoms, a New Zealand newspaper reported Monday.


Bill Henriksen, the manager of the McMurdo base station, said nearly 16,500 condoms were delivered last month and would be made available, free of charge, to staff throughout the year to avoid the potential embarrassment of having to buy them.

The base only has a skeleton staff through the long winter.


They say that the meat is sweetest, closest to the bone.

Gives boner a whole new meaning.
