Do you know Jane Adams?

Okay, yes, this is for philosophy class, but I definitely will be doing my own research. I'm not looking for anyone to do it for me. I'm just throwing out a net to see if maybe, just maybe, someone on here happens to know a lot about her. Is there anything you specifically know that may not be known by the masses? Something interesting? Just a shot in the dark here. Thanks You!

    Do you mean Jane Addams, with two d's, the Nobel laureate? If so, you should at least get the spelling right on your paper if not out of respect for her.

    Let's consider now the testicle, a most engaging pet

    Not anything like a gremlin for it's safe to get it wet

    Yes these are two kind fellas that never misbehave

    Safe and warmly nestled in their undergarment cave.

    Nor like their brave companion that lives behind the fly

    He's bolder and more brazen, a real outgoing guy

    That lad is full of mischief and it don't take much provoking

    For him to gladly spring to life and stand up proudly poking

    Sometimes he's very shameful for the owner of the pants

    For he's not heard of subtlety when it comes to sweet romance.

    And given some encouragement by any slippery slit

    He often quickly demonstrates his propensity to spit.

    But those sneaky little testes are the power behind the throne

    Our hard and friendly hero would be nothing on his own

    Without those silent tyrants a man could not succeed

    For they pump the juice that drives the lust and fills the fruit with seed.

    So when you wander the road of life and meet a charming bloke

    And you reach into his trousers to give his balls a stroke

    You're touching something special and I hope you understand

    It's the essence of humanity you have there in your hand.

    I think you would get better answers if you asked your question in the "Books & Authors" forum instead of Polls & Surveys.

    Try searching for "obscure facts about Jane Adams". If the author is British, search using Google Uk . Try the tabloids.

    You could look at book reviews or authors page at Amazon..

    Good Luck!
