This Week In SPS & High-Five Friday

I've been out in the big blue room, buying or at least hoping to add to my collections; so I've not been online much. I'm not sure if it's greed which makes me stay away, or if it's just a momentum issue & I resist a change to once again sitting in front of the screen... Well, that and I may have an announcement regarding a project next week or so :knock wood:

But in any case, here are a few things I managed to spot this week...

1) Peter at Beauty In Darkness discusses BDSM in mainstream movies -- I'm less interested in Wanted; but revel in the dish on The Mask of Fu Manchu.

2) Derek dishes on museums & their care for collections (or not).

3) John shows us À Rebours (Against Nature) by Joris-Karl Huymans (1884) -- with illustrations by Arthur Zaidenberg. Enough to send me back to searching. And whining when I can't afford it.

4) Bloomberg shows us what's going on at the Museum of Sex. (I now know more about deer than I wanted to.)

5) Orhan Kahn's Death of Retail Price isn't really "sex history", but if you adults need a dose of crazy, you'll be soaking in it.

High-Five Fridays is still on hiatus; but I'm still playing.
