I'll just have to buy a vacuum. Maybe that could be the solution to my problem.

An elderly Indonesian woman famed nationwide for supernatural skills in lengthening penises has died, reports said Thursday.

Reclusive Mak Erot, famed for penis extension treatment incorporating traditional herbs and Islamic prayer, died last week in Caringin village on the western coast of Java island, the Kompas daily's website reported.

Mak Erot -- who reports aged anywhere from 101 to over 130 -- prompted legions of imitations of her famous clinics, many using her famously craggy and birthmarked face to lure in anxious men.

While her legacy has been closely guarded by male descendents intent on maintaining the purity of the treatment, Mak Erot has become a pop-culture icon in everything from advertisements to teenage romantic comedy films.

Reports of he death prompted a flurry of bemused online comments from Internet users in the world's largest Muslim-majority country.

User "Jengkol" wrote on news website Detikcom: "Oh no, I didn't have the chance to go to Mak Erot and now she's dead. I'll just have to buy a vacuum. Maybe that could be the solution to my problem."

Blame her in part for overpopulation. There are now over two hundred million Indonesians. There did not use to be so many.

Still, I wish someone would have transcribed the prayers. That would have made some purely fascinating reading.

BOTH, this reminds me of an old Benny Hill joke...

"Once upon a time there were two Chinamen. Now look how many there are!"

Here in the USA we have Viagra, Cialis, and Levitra ads everywhere, but it takes two to tango and with no corresponding drug for women, well, it's a lot of wishful thinking.

Combine this thought with the old Indonesian woman and her clinics and, presto! Business opportunity.
