Arts Testicular Controversy
Jonathan Ames did a reading last night at the Tractor. He was hilarious. Everyone loved him. If you haven’t read his novels, you’re a mad fool. As for the question of whether his right testicle is visible on the cover of his new book, he is taking a poll and invites you to weigh in via email to jonathanames2@aol.com. Is it indeed his testis? His liver has also been floated as an option. This makes no sense; though he’s apparently given it quite a workout at times, it still wouldn’t crawl outside his body. Is it just “an odd shadow”? Or something else altogether?
Mr. Ames previously held a contest to locate the most phallic building in the world.
Testicles aren't any more visible than livers are; they're internal organs. What you might see is a sliver of scrotum, but unless he's having some really serious rippage going on down there, it's not a testicle. There'd be blood.
