If girls give bl*w jobs (not sure if this is safe/profane... hence the condomized spelling), what gives cron jobs? If so, what bodily appendage is the target of a cron job?

Randoms on the street give cron jobs ("excuse me sir, but do you have the TIME?..... ahh, thank you.")

the appendage is typically the left wrist, although some people like to get kinky and put it where ever the end of the fob happens to be. Me, I usually have my cron jobs applied to my right trouser pocket.

The trouble is, though, that it's very difficult to get someone to cron your pocket, so I end up taking it out of my pocket, which can be an embarassing situation on the street (if not embarassing, then at least awkward). Hence the preference of most people for the wrist-based crons. wrist-crons are easier to receive while sitting down, or driving; I feel more satisfied with a pocket-cron, however. Brent Spiner and the chick Molly from Neuromancer apparently have their crons permanently wired in. Now that would be cool - getting cron'ed 24-7.

blow jobs are not profane. I work next to a balloon store - they blow all the time. There are kids in there asking the ladies behind the counter to blow, and they do it for a dollar! And you get a latex blow-holder, too!
