Serial recidivism among three-dimensional marital aid vendors is on the rise in Mississippi, requiring a crack team of purple vibrator patsies/journalists to sting a store called Adult Video and Books for selling something that was neither a video nor a book. A KLBT "3 on Your Side" team purchased a purple vibrator from a cashier, identified themselves, and confronted him with his crime. Apparently the store had been busted before for selling "three-dimensional novelties." He let the muckrakers know that a vibrator doesn't have to go in your vagina.
