Charity begins at home...in bed.

I know you've heard that one about Fortune Cookies.... You know where you should always follow up with the actual fortune you find in the cookie with the words, "in bed" to find out what it really means.  Well, the fortune or piece of advice - Charity begins at home, with the phrase "in bed" fits perfectly with this next story.

A new upscale condom company based out of Colorado called Sir Richards Condom Company is set to put on a new brand of condoms on the market in high end retailers such as Fred Segal, Viceroy Hotels, Paul Smith menswear botiques, and Whole Foods grocery stoes (well, I've heard of 2 of these places, and really have only ever been to a Whole Foods...)  The condom - $13/dozen is not cheap, but for every condom sold in the United States, the manufacture is donating a condom to a developing country - you know to help prevent AIDS and stuff (good idea - but do the condoms have to be SO expensive?  What are they made from - stretchy gold?!?) 

Also, in another twist, Sir Richards has also come out with a cleaver campaign noting the vast price that a child has if the condoms are not used properly.  Umm, I would hope that's enough of a preventative.  I'm thinking - seeing the fact that it costs that much for a kid, I will pay that little but for a condom!
