Rub on hard-on

Viagra and Cialis may soon have some serious competition in the form of a rub on. Scientists at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York have successfully used nanoparticles to encourage erections ... in rats. (Well, they have to start somewhere!)

A rub on could provide an alternative to Viagra, which can cause headaches and facial flushing. And the little blue bill takes up to an hour to start working; the new treatment would work much more quickly.

Dave Cummings, an adult performer and director, told XBIZ,  "As a performer, one who can’t take two of the present three medications, and one who gets inconsistent results from the other pill, I’d welcome an alternative for multiple sex scene shoots when/where my 69 years of age could use an assist."

Great, but now can we focus on more important things, like how do they get the caramel into a Caramilk bar?
