Calvin Klein is under fire for a sexually explicit new billboard that's caught the eyes — and turned the stomachs — of many people who have seen it in New York.

The blue-jeans giant has unveiled a jumbo ad that shows two young men and a young woman entwined in a semi-nude threesome, as another man undresses.

The graphic image at the intersection of Houston and Lafayette Streets, in a hip neighborhood in downtown Manhattan, has some passersby oohing and aahing — and others averting their eyes.

"It's soft pornography is what it is," said Laurie Baranowski, who said she was in New York for a visit. "I don't think that just because you put Calvin Klein's name on it makes it acceptable. It's a beautiful picture, but I don't think that that's the place for it."

But others said that in New York, pretty much anything goes.

Joaquin Liguas, who heard about the billboard when he woke up in the morning, told FOXNews.com he wasn't bothered by it; he's seen much racier stuff on city streets.

But family values organizations were troubled by the latest controversial move from Calvin Klein and said it was time for the company to take the 50-foot-tall ad down.

"I think that this company has a moral obligation to our country to display their product in an appropriate manner, especially in a public venue where you have thousands of thousands of children who will see this ad," said Randy Sharp of the American Family Association.

"I find this kind of ad repulsive, I find it disgusting, I find it inappropriate for a public venue. For my family of five, Calvin Klein will never see a dollar of our money."

A spokesman for Calvin Klein could not be reached Monday morning, but he said earlier that the company's "intention was to create a very sexy campaign that speaks to our targeted demographic."

Whatever demographic they have in mind, Wendy Wright, president of Concerned Women for America, said the ad seems designed to offend just about everyone.

"This is graphic and intended to shock any sensibility — even in New York," said Wright. "New York tries to sell itself as a place for tourists, not just sexually deviant tourists."

Calvin Klein has long pushed the envelope — and sales of denim — with their sexually provocative ads. But the jeanmaker has had a number of spots pulled from TV for using minors to move their product, and just last year saw an ad starring actress Eva Mendes banned for explicit content.

Sharp said Calvin Klein was using the ad to generate shock value and publicity, and he wondered why the clothing company didn't try putting more of its duds on display.

"Why do you push skin to sell clothing?" he asked.

But others said passersby should be thankful it was a jeans ad that was up on the billboard.

"Well I'm happy that it's Calvin Klein so they have to wear the trousers," said Sike Bridge. "If not, it would be worse, no?"

The original Burberry for me.  Cat  

I'd like to be able to buy some trial/samples of various perfumes.  I've found a few random ones, even free ones, but I'd like to be able to try some of the expensive brands by just purchasing those small samples or trial sizes.  So far I haven't found a very large selection of these websites and the ones I have found only had a few fragrances from which to choose.  Anyone know where I can go to buy these for a decent price?

Thanks.

Melinda - humble, honest, what the world needs now - she is true, you can tell, nothing phony about her, need some good, old fashioned modesty, perhaps she will set a trend, I hope so!!! She is phenomenal - makes me cry, she is so not affected!!!

Russell Crowe was recently interviewed. Here's what he had to say...

As for the future lessons he'll teach his boys about the opposite sex, Crowe says, "Look, when it comes to women, you are talking about mysteries that haven't been unraveled by the wisest scholars of all time. I'm not going to be able to do that. But I can teach my sons to respect them."

If all men could be this smart!

lazy peach pie - canned peaches with allspice and crushed vanilla wafers

lazy cheese cake - cream cheese on graham crackers with jelly on top

anybody else have favorite snack ideas?

Any type of TV show, news, entertainment, informational/educational, sales, food, decorating, whatever!

I think my favorite has to be Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs. He just cracks me up.

Who's yours?

I love the one where the guy gets up in the middle of the night and puts the diamond necklace around his wife's neck. When she wakes up he pretends to be asleep but right at the end he just barely starts to smile. He has the sexiest mouth!

What's your favorite?

The cell phone commercials with the old lady  and her mom says who can you be texting and she says my BFF Rose. 

That's if you have time to watch TV.  I record and watch them at night when I get off work or when I happen to find a free moment.  Its nice to record because then I don't have commercials either so it goes by really fast. 

I like the Young and the Restless and have been watching for years.  It's the only soap I watch, the others just are not realistic enough for me to get in to them.  I also like Old Christine but that has not been on lately.  There's another show on Monday nights and I can't remember the name of it at the moment.  Its about a husband and wife, girlfriend and boyfriend, and a single guy.  I'm also a Food Network junkie. 

I played a really fun game at someone's baby shower that I have always remembered. You buy a few jars of baby food and take off the labels. Number the jars of food and keep a key around for you so you won't forget what they are! Try picking ones that look similar or might be hard to guess. Pass the baby jars around and get everyone to write down what they think it is. The person with the most correct answers wins. Good luck!

Did you ever ask her what her favorite was?!   hehe, TyneLyn help you!  I have said to Cupid to help me when I had to kill roaches living in georgia!   All they can do is help us to be scared!  LOL! 

Did you say you had these before in your place?  If so, what does your landlord, apt. manager or whoever say about this?  Don't worry. I'm sure your safe now.  You are going to have fun tonight!  Have a great one!
