Doin' the Nasty

Utahns exel at putting lipstick on pigs

By John Rasmuson
POSTED // Aug 31,2011 - Not long ago, I endured an anal probe. I have ass-cam photos to prove it. It was not administered by a green-skinned alien in a spaceship. Rather, a white physician in an unremarkable room in Sandy snaked the high-tech hardware to its destination.
