Love Field is finally free!

Not that I live in Dallas anymore, but I feel like this is still a good thing. And who gives a damn about that rich assholes whose property values might drop?

Ahh crap. It turns out it's one-stop service, not non-stop.

Playboy for the blind

Playboy produces an audiobook version of their magazine. They also produce a digital braille version and a press braille version.
Imagine if you were an adolescent boy stumbling on your visually impaired father's Playboys. What a disappointment. Or your wife finds them. You're pleading with her: "I swear, honey, I just read it for the articles!" Wifey: "What kind of example are you setting for your son!?" Or "Is this what you wish I looked like? I see the way you listen to other women, undressing them with your ears."

What about a blind guy reading the braille letters to Penthouse? His fingers a moving across the page, maybe tweaking his nipple a little. "Oh, yeah. That's hot." A woman nearby rolls her eyes: "I don't know what you're reading, but it could NEVER happened." "Shut up! Yeah, it could!" He throws something at her, maybe misses.
