The first and last link didn't work for me.

But I have seen a penis before. So it's ok.

Yup. There's mine, and it's just as Buzz Aldren described it from Apollo 11.

Those aren't from space, just from airplanes, but that doesn't change how odd they are.

I saw this in the Guardian and their picture res was awful. I couldn't figure out what I was looking at. Then I googled Penis seen from Outer Space. Boy, that was a good idea!

felix - the best thing about that dick (cheney) link? The sponsored add reads "Hard Erections Killer Sex"

but what do the images mean? and could they have been made by intelligent beings? intelligent design perhaps?

All the "Increase Your Size" emails will now be saying "Make Your Penis Visible From Space!"

I guess Mac users don't get to see the penis. *shrug*

In the sixth grade, once you get that lawn-scorched dick visible in outer space, you can just kick back and enjoy life, because you've earned your place in the pecking order. Then in ninth grade, you've got to start all over, because lawn-scorched dicks don't cut it anymore.

The live.com links don't work on Safari. So this post gets a flag from me. Sorry.

Yeah, I knew I liked my Mac for a reason.

Shouldn't we flag *you*, for using Safari?

A "via Boing Boing" disclaimer would have been appropriate in more than one way.
