Don't you even go there. Here’s a nice piece of promo art for the x-rated film The Journey of O, with Vanessa Jorson, better known as Clair Dia, and the legendary Georgina Spelvin, circa 1975. If you look around the web you can probably find a torrent of this one, which is perhaps appropriate, since the original edit contained some peeing scenes—and we do mean actor-on-actor, not actor-in-toilet. Too much information? Hey, we’re just doing our jobs. Since finding two Mafé posters we highlighted a couple of weeks ago, we’ve started really checking out x-rated art, and the stories behind the productions are often quite interesting. At some point after O’s initial release the pee scenes were cut and more sex was edited in, resulting in a disjointed, but infinitely more pleasing film. That means the wet version isn’t readily available, as a download or otherwise (in light of this discussion, the word “download” just sounds dirty, doesn’t it?). Anyway, they say it never rains in Southern California, but it did today, when The Journey of O made its Los Angeles debut.

The headlines that mattered yesteryear.
1939—Batman Debuts
In Detective Comics #27, DC Comics publishes its second major superhero, Batman, who becomes one of the most popular comic book characters of all time, and then a popular camp television series starring Adam West, and lastly a multi-million dollar movie franchise starring Michael Keaton, then George Clooney, and finally Christian Bale. 1953—Crick and Watson Publish DNA Results
British scientists James D Watson and Francis Crick publish an article detailing their discovery of the existence and structure of deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA, in Nature magazine. Their findings answer one of the oldest and most fundamental questions of biology, that of how living things reproduce themselves. 1967—First Space Program Casualty Occurs
Soviet cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov dies in Soyuz 1 when, during re-entry into Earth's atmosphere after more than ten successful orbits, the capsule's main parachute fails to deploy properly, and the backup chute becomes entangled in the first. The capsule's descent is slowed, but it still hits the ground at about 90 mph, at which point it bursts into flames. Komarov is the first human to die during a space mission. 1986—Otto Preminger Dies
Austro–Hungarian film director Otto Preminger, who directed such eternal classics as Laura, Anatomy of a Murder, Carmen Jones, The Man with the Golden Arm, and Stalag 17, and for his efforts earned a star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame, dies in New York City, aged 80, from cancer and Alzheimer's disease. 1998—James Earl Ray Dies
The convicted assassin of American civil rights leader Martin Luther King, Jr., petty criminal James Earl Ray, dies in prison of hepatitis aged 70, protesting his innocence as he had for decades. Members of the King family who supported Ray's fight to clear his name believed the U.S. Government had been involved in Dr. King's killing, but with Ray's death such questions became moot.
