    JOHN HARVEY KELLOGG DEVELOPED HIS FAMOUS BREAKFAST CEREAL AS A MEANS TO PROMOTE SEXUAL HEALTH.

    John Harvey Kellogg, M.D. (February 26, 1852 – December 14, 1943) was an American medical doctor in Battle Creek, Michigan, who ran a sanitarium using holistic methods, with a particular focus on nutrition, enemas, and exercise. Kellogg was an advocate of vegetarianism for health and is best known for the invention of the breakfast cereal known as corn flakes with his brother, Will Keith Kellogg.

    He is best known for the invention of the famous breakfast cereal, Corn Flakes, in 1878. Originally, he called this cereal Granula, which he later changed to Granola in 1881. However, due to patent rights, he had to once again change the name to Corn Flakes. These Corn Flakes were invented as part of his health regimen to prevent masturbation. His belief was that bland foods, such as these, would decrease or prevent excitement and arousal.

    Enjoy your breakfast.

    When I was 15 I could have eaten grass and still woke up with a boner that could break concrete.

    There was a 1994 movie, The Road To Wellville, with Anthony Hopkins and Matthew Broderick, that focused on one particular patient's visit to Kellogg's facility. The basic theme of the movie was, better living through enemas.

    Speaking of enemas I had this stomach bug the other night and I had a date. So I had to decide whether to go thru with it or not. I probably shouldn't continue.

    Michael Hubert Kenyon (born c. 1944[1] in Elgin, Illinois) is an American criminal nicknamed the Enema Bandit. He pleaded guilty to a decade-long series of armed robberies of female victims, some of which involved sexual assaults in which he would give them enemas. He is also known as the "Champaign Enema Bandit," the "Ski Masked Bandit", and "The Illinois Enema Bandit".[2]

    Attacks and conviction
    The earliest attacks Kenyon was accused of having committed were on two teenage sisters in March 1966 in Champaign, Illinois.[3] Kenyon graduated from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1967 and left the state. The attacks thus ended in Champaign but started anew in Manhattan, Kansas; Norman, Oklahoma; and Los Angeles, California.[2]

    Kenyon returned to Champaign, and the attacks resumed, in 1972.[4] In May 1975, Kenyon took a job as an auditor for the Illinois Department of Revenue in Lincolnwood, Illinois.[5] He then committed additional attacks, including on three Cook County flight attendants.[6] He also attacked four women in an Urbana sorority house, one of whom was administered an enema.[1][7][8] He was involved in a minor traffic accident later that night, but was not arrested.

    Kenyon was eventually apprehended in suburban Chicago a few weeks later in connection with a number of robberies there.[9] During questioning he began to talk about the enema bandit. After his arrest he was judged to be legally sane; in December 1975, he pleaded guilty to six counts of armed robbery[10] and was sentenced to six to twelve years in prison for each count, but was never charged for the 'enema-ings'.[11] He was paroled in 1981 after serving six years. [12]

    It's not little known that the UCONN women's basketball team has 107 consecutive wins and counting, but the record
    for consecutive wins in any college sport is the 253 straight wins by the Trinity College men's squash team from February, 1998
    to January, 2012.

    From what little I know about it I don't see the difference between squash and racketball.
