The Graham Norton Effect

As the developer of the Ijaculater "sex toy" featured in this episode, I was hugely amused seeing Graham "suggesting" to Chris Rock and Marilyn Manson what the device was used for. Graham never specifically told them that the Ijaculater was a male masturbation machine; but he beat around the bush, so to speak, and after turning on the machine and seeing it move back and forth he pretended to squirt oil into the moving tube. Chris Rock commented that he'd had more sex prior to his marriage than after it. Manson said he'd consider buying an Ijaculater to use for himself, which was a comment I added to my Website that same evening. However, Manson's lawyer contacted me and said to take out that unauthorized promo, which I did. My happiness did not last long, though, because in November of that year (2004) I was indicted for "possession of sexually explicit materials," which consisted of some photos my advertising agent downloaded into my computer by mistake. That nightmare taught me that despite the humor involved in the notion of a device like the Ijaculater, one has to be careful selling anything sex-related in the U.S. because we are a country of hypocrisy and Puritanism. All this is recounted in a book I wrote which is available at Amazon titled, "RAILROADED TO THE SEX OFFENDER REGISTRY: A Conspiracy in Maine," by Jim Logan ($25.00 and 540 pages).
