Talking US rebate cheques spent on porn

President Bush's economic stimulus plan which involved sending cheques of up to $1,200 to every taxpayer has provided a boom to the online porn industry, according to market research.

The Adult Internet Market Research Company (AIMRCo) identified an " uncharacteristic" increase in spending on online pornography since the cheques were sent out.

It'd better be American made porn. No sense in sending the money to foreign made flicks, lol.
