As well as laying claim to the title of Germany's most fertile man, the winner will also be given a suitably German reward, a red Porsche.
| Ok, they've got my attention.  |

For a Porsche I'd stand over the petri dish screaming "SWIM YOU SONS OF BITCHES!!!" |

DH did think of a way to potentially somewhat redeem this idea. If it were couples having trouble with fertility, that might actually be a kind of nice idea. Offer everyone the basic fertility services free, and the winner not only gets the rest of their services for free but gets, say, a nursery makeover, free diapers and toys, etc. for the baby. That might be kind of nice.
I still can't imagine sitting around at night watching sperm have a race on TV!

I think that would be heartbreaking for the couples that don't win. Not the free nursury, but if they wanted a baby and didn't conceive that would double their dissapointment.
So - the fastest sperm guy wins a porshe - because he's......what? He may have fast sperm, but what if those sperm are filled with stupid genes? Maybe they should have a reward for good quality genes. Chromosome Man can win a Ferrari. And why not an egg contest? Sperm man and Egg Woman could get together and have TV Baby. And the whole world can watch. And they can win a mini van - or a hummer! |

But wouldn't hummers interfere with having babies in the first place?

Not a mini hummer - just the whole package with chrome and spinning hubcaps. |

(either wormie missed my play on words with "hummer" or she's pretending to be blissfully unaware of the word's alternate meaning...)

No - I thought I addressed both.
It's like if you just test drive the hummer it's ok. Know what I mean? |

Ah. 'Cause if the hummer were your only... ah... "mode of transportation," then it wouldn't matter how fast the sperm were, there won't be no babies.

Right! But if you only used the hummer for Sunday scenic drives and used another more practical mode of transportation regularly......then you can speed and stuff. |

We can have EA . . . races.* | So that explains this new feature: "Total Time spent in forums since 1/23/2005"
If the person who gets in and out the fastest wins a Porsche, we could turn EA into a ghost town in no time.
