Dear PFIQ,
Since you printed my question and photo in issue #29, PFIQ, I have received many letters. I'm glad I'm retired so I have plenty of time to answer all.
I finally got rid of the smell of the deep scrotum piercings (mumble) by putting a 5/32" barbell and a 5/16" ring. Now air can get through. (laughs)
(FZ: Can you stand like that?
Hermann: Maybe I should read the text one whole, because . . . again . . . oh . . .
FZ: Just . . . just say "now air can get through")
Now air can get through. Don't ever quit putting out PFIQ, as it is most enjoyable. I have them all and go over them many times.
You never had any more of Carl Carrol. Issue #14 I believe?
Keep up the great work. I don't know what to pierce next.
P.S. Do you use 1% Xylocaine for deep cock head piercings?
Piercing the head of the cock must be painful. (OOHH!) I had the head tattooed and it hurt like hell, but I didn't want the artist to stop.

Dear Jim and PFI
Enclosed are photos of my cock
And the wonderful tattoo John Stuckey in Houston did for me
We plan to continue the design on my balls the next time I'm in Houston
I really enjoy PFIQ
Someday I hope to visit L.A. and meet you

Dear PFIQ
Dear PFIQ friends
Dear Jim
Dear Jim and PFI
I still want it
I have come to a decision
For those that believe than, that bigger is better
Marine hardware stores carry a full line
Of stainless steel rings
Enclosed are photos
I just wanted to reassure women
Who want nipples pierced
I, frankly
Would rather have a Fakir
I will send you a few other pictures as soon as I get them

The next time I'm in Houston
I really enjoy PFIQ
Someday I hope to visit L.A.
And meet you!
The only thing that surprises me
Is that every year I have the urge to have another hole
Do you think, Jim
That a gynecologist
With the aid of your magazine could do a clithood piercing?
Possibly one day the ultimate experience can be realized
I believe we are witnessing the evolution of a new type of man
The quintessential being, a person who is totally modern
While at the same time primitive in desires and spirit
I feel this combination is rare in today society
This type of person has the desire to get things done and it's . . .
This attribute will help both sides achieve
I'm seeking the quintessential man for myself
Through piercing, tattoos and education
Possibly one day the ultimate experience can be realized
My last sexual partner liked the jewelry on most occasions
But not all
And I accidentally left the impaling jewelry out of all one night
And half the next day
Everything is healing nicely
