RC's vagina monologues

Billboard.JPGIn In the past month, I bet many motorists driving westbound on Foothill from Archibald to Hellman thought to themselves, "Hmm ... I didn't know you can get that rejuvenated." The ones who thought this probably have never flipped through an L.A. Weekly.

It's not the first time a massive billboard advertised this Beverly Hills type surgery in this city. This business had an even more visible billboard on Archibald and Foothill facing northbound traffic but it was quickly taken down. A spokesman from the company who owns that billboard told me it "slipped through the cracks."

This one however, has a longer shelf life probably because it's framed by foliage. Speeding drivers might not notice but if you ever have lunch at Taco Hut, it'll surely give you a doubletake. I especially like the orchid a la Georgia O'Keefe.

I went on the Web site which was so polite, it thanked me and told me I just took the "first step in achieving the look, feel and personal empowerment" I had always wanted. Who doesn't want personal empowerment? Above is a picture of a pretty girl with her eyes closed and sun rays coming out of her back. It looks like she's taking a nap and well, a nap sounds good right about now. 

It's not the first time a billboard here has raised eyebrows. The same time two years ago, Councilman Sam Spagnolo and former mayors Bill Alexander and Dennis Stout graced a billboard here touting their councilman candidate of choice. I guess that billboard was about political empowerment.

Thanks for starting a vagina dialogue.

Yes, the vaginal debate has started. Here is my take on this.

Advertising companies are hired to promote their customer's product. They were nice enough not to be crude about it, and use medical terms, instead of vulgar street slang.

Also, it is now a legitimate medical procedure, and as such needs to be treated as such, and it is geared for older, sexually active women. I wouldn't expect my 75 year old grandmother to have the procedure done.

And finally, there is still such a thing as the First Amendment, in which the "Laser Vaginal Rejuvination Institute of the Inland Empire" uses to it's full advantage.

If the city decides to have them pull down the billboards, I would hope the Institute turns around and sues the city of Rancho Cucamonga. If it's a legitimate billboard, they have all the rights to advertise their products or services.

It's no different for advertising Viagra and the other such products. They push erectile disfunction drugs everywhere, from magazines, to the dreaded "Viva Viagra" commercials on television; why not have the women feel just as good about themselves and have a little laser vaginal rejuvination.

In closing, I give Laser Vaginal Rejuvination Institute of the Inland Empire two big whopping thumbs up. May your business flourish!!!

Apparently there is no shortage of potential customers.

Its such as you learn my mind! You seem to grasp a lot about this, such as you wrote the e book in it or something. I feel that you simply can do with some percent to drive the message house a little bit, but other than that, that is wonderful blog. A fantastic read. I will certainly be back.
