Kiss & Tell

By Whitney Mitchell · Friday, Nov. 17,2006 12:54 a.m.

As Mary Beth Kime sat back in the dentist chair, she gazed into the eyes of the oh-so-attractive dentist leaning just inches away from her face. While he performed a routine inspection of her mouth, Kime realized she wasn't the only one who felt the chemistry between them. In a moment their lips locked, but it wasn't long before they fell to the stage floor, groping each other passionately in a very public display of affection in front of the more than 500 in attendance to watch the demonstration of what author Michael Christian calls the "fantasy kiss." Kime, a freshman, and her kissing partner freshman Kyle Alexander are one of the four volunteer couples who bravely took to the Indiana Memorial Union's Alumni Hall stage Thursday evening for the Union Board's "Art of Kissing" presentation based off of the international best-selling book authored by Christian, with the aforementioned title.
