It’s always been nearly impossible to say the word melon without getting just a little turned on.

Turns out there may be a pretty good reason for that as at least watermelon has some effects similar to those found in erectile dysfuntion drugs.

I now have this picture in my head of two people, outdoors, sitting in empty tubs, while one of them wolfs down mouthful after mouthful of watermelon and says, “Wait, wait, I think I’m almost ready.”

Uh oh, suddenly the word melon isn’t doing it for me anymore…

(Somehow I’ve got to re-associate the word with Elaine Nardo from Taxi.)
