Smythe's "Beat 'em in alley" (1972); Fluffragette, Graphic Novel; "Moan Tones"

SMYTHE'S "IF YOU CAN'T BEAT "EM IN THE ALLEY, YOU CAN'T BEAT "EM ON THE  ICE"
...
What a world. There's no hockey season and absolutely no one misses it.  Yet, 
baseball players are the kings of the universe. And I work for just about  
nothing and have to beg (unsuccessfully) for heat.
...
This hockey quotation is quite famous and deserves to be in a book of  
quotations. I can probably pin it down to the exact day using the digitized  Toronto 
Star's "Pages of the Past." Anyone want to pay the five dollars for one  day 
to do that and post it here?

Everyone needs a moantone
Posted Jan 20, 2005, 11:53 AM ET by Joshua  Fruhlinger

We didn’t say it.  Jenna Jameson did.  The sultry sex machine of  the adult 
film biz is teaming up with Wicked Wireless to provide Latin American  cell 
phone users with things like boobalicious wallpapers and ringtones that  moan (”
moantones,” as they call them).  Why this hasn’t happened before and  why it 
is happening in Latin America we’re not sure.  In Jenna’s words,  which are 
priceless, “We’ll provide [moantones] in the universal language of  sexy sighs 
recognized around the world but with our own personal touch. The  technology 
is way beyond most of us, but the bottom line is that you’ll able to  hear the 
other Jenna’s Web Girls moan and me when your phone starts to ring.  We’ll 
also provide audio content in Spanish plus photos and text features

Moantones are not really new and neither is Jenna Jameson. If you would like  
some real news about "moantones" there is an article by the two Canadian lads 
 who invented the term in 2002 and who started the website in 2003. The 
interview  is at _http://www.totalmanipulation.com/moan_tones.html_ 
(http://www.totalmanipulation.com/moan_tones.html)  
I  have moantones on my phone and only use them sometimes on the weekend as  
ringers. Otherwise I download truetones or something besides the bibbity bip 
on  my V220. I have to agree with the first comment though...this is not really 
news  as much as Wicked trying to promote themselves.
Peace Out
