This is very juvenile, but when I was working as a radio reporter in Thailand, we found out what a merkin was an I'm proud to say we slipped it into the newscast twice before we got in trouble (because I signed off as N merkin X)

You should be proud. That's amazing.

And the reason that I've heard (that makes the most sense) didn't even make the list: pubic wigs were used by some of the same people who used head wigs: actors.

Yes, that's right, it's a stage prop.

There, doesn't that make more sense?

Up here, north of the 49th, we call you guys 'merkins. Kind of the same thing, eh?

The difference:

It is not necessary to shave before applying a 'merkin to one's genitals.

REAL SCOTSMEN CARRY PURSES

Dear Cecil:

Despite what that imbecile on the Internet may have told you, the "fur purse" in front of a Scot's kilt is not a merkin but a sporran. It is simply a pouch and has no sexual significance. --Anonymous

Cecil replies:

Reminds me of a joke.

Q: Why do Scotsmen wear kilts?

A: Because sheep can hear zippers.

hehehehhe.
/juvenile snortling at jokes about boys in kilts.
