Hooray, a listing on Snopes!

I am to some extent responsible for the creation of this web page:

Snopes rocks. Read it for a while, and some stories will trigger a sense of recognition that will send you scurrying there for a devastating refutation...

(text of the email I sent to snopes)

I don't believe this one for a moment, but it's not on snopes yet as far as I can tell, thought you might be interested:

http://www.acme.com/jef/netgems/cardiosexuality.html

"One of the magazines, called Ovid Now, describes a sexual "toy" that can be made from the fresh heart of a cow, a simple electrical circuit, and some batteries. This deviancy is apparently gaining limited popularity in the rural South. Practioners get the dead heart to beat, and then use the beating organ for sexual perversions."

Cool :-) I submitted something to them a few weeks back about the lady frying her dog in the microwave (a drunken student at Oxford actually DID it, and got sent down for about two years for it, it was all over the papers at the time), but they don't seem to have added it.
