The first Russian museum of erotica is opening in St. Petersburg, Russian Nezavisimaya Gazeta daily reports. The museum is founded by Igor Knyazkin, the chief of the prostate research center of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences.
...
There is one exhibit in the museum which makes Knyazkin be especially proud of. This is the 30-centimeter preserved penis of Grigory Rasputin. "Having this exhibit, we can stop envying America, where Napoleon Bonaparte's penis is now kept. " Napoleon's penis is but a small "pod"-- it cannot stand comparison to our organ of 30 centimeters," the head of the museum said.


With picture.

That is the closest I've come to spewing water across my keyboard in, well, pretty much ever.

OMGWTF, I am reduced to typing.

AHAHAHA!!! This article is hilarious!! So I wonder whose idea it was to pickle Rasputin's and Napolean's weewees? Did they leave it in their living wills (ah, the puns never end), or did their loyal mourners come up with it?

Now we know...

Now we know why Rasputin held such a spell over the Czarina. In order to keep up American competition, I direct you to this (http://hinterlands.cc/index.php?showtopic=66).

Perhaps some Russian will do a zine called "The Rasputin Relic."
