Clubber,
Agreed -- PC = BS, and I don't see "Happy Holidays" as being PC. I just prefer it because with all of the disparate holidays, especially that seem to take place at this time of year, who knows who's celebrating what? "Happy Holidays" is just a generic, all-encompassing platitude for me.

It's the same thing when I go to Winnipeg. They typically ask if I have any firearms, alcohol, or tobacco; if I'm carrying more than $10,000; if I'm going to be meeting anyone or know anyone; what the purpose of my visit is; and, if I'm staying overnight, where I'll be staying. I tell them I'm going to a play or plays (and have copies of my receipts handy) and might even hit a casino. Far more often than not, I'm just waved through, but a couple of times, they've wanted to do the car inspection thing. As long as you were upfront and honest with them, you shouldn't have anything to worry about.

I wish the clubs in Winnipeg would abide by #40. Sometimes it can be almost a 30 MINUTES before another dancer appears on stage. I also like #38 and wholeheartedly agree with #20! There've been times I've left clubs because those bathrooms looked like war zones and were completely unusable.

Nice. About now, I'm leaning more towards Gianna Michaels and Ava Addams. But give me five minutes; I'm sure I'll have some completely different faves by then.

Visited my mom in the hospital. Her pneumonia and an infection cleared a couple days ago, and it was great to see that the dementia had cleared yesterday. Haven't opened any gifts yet, but I think that the first coherent conversation I've had with her in about a week was a damn good gift all in itself.

Clubber,
Are you talking about Iraq having nothing to do with 9/11? Bush even said Iraq didn't. Watch starting about 1:10.

How about "Happy Holidays, whatever you celebrate"?

I usually buy a dancer a drink because it just seems like a polite thing to do, as well as an icebreaker. However, in one club, a couple of dancers have told me (out of earshot of others) that I don't have to buy them a drink/they didn't need one, but when a waitress asks if I'd like to buy the dancer a drink and the customer turns to the dancer, the dancer is supposed to say yes.

One time at a club in Indy, the dancer who was sitting with me was having some major problems staying awake, Even drinking a Red Bull, she was nodding off. Every now and again, her head would lower and the straw would catch her in a cheek, in the chin, in the mouth, and even up her nose. The dancer on stage worked to stifle her giggles. Have to admit, I had to work at that a bit, too.

Clubber,
Afghanistan and Iraq weren't any threats. They had no ties to the 9/11 terrorists. There was absolutely no justification in attacking them, and so, absolutely no need to get financing for those wars.

Ibbaicni, if you're a third-party to all of that -- the extortion, the prostitution, or anything else -- and you have absolutely no idea who any of the involved parties are, personally, I think it'd be a bit of a stretch to say that you'd be guilty.

If money, goods, or services aren't asked for or exchanged for sex, there is no prostitution -- only two (or more) people (hopefully) having a good time.

"Democrats are borrow and spend spend spend proponents."
Isn't this the very thing Bush did to finance the Iraq and Afghanistan wars? Borrow tens of billions from Japan and China?

It's the Playboy Clearing House Sweepstakes! WOOT!
I'd probably pout and whimper and stammer out that she was at the wrong house.

Clubber, sorry you to get to have something really fun to unwrap. Maybe tomorrow they'll have some fun post-Christmas, pre-New Year's parties going on.

Doug, North Dakota's also a baby bible belt state and pretty top-heavy with conservative leaders. But there does seem to be a disproportionate amount of Backpage activity in that area of the state, as opposed to the eastern area.
I also made a mistake when I said that three of the clubs were in oil country. Two are; I thought the third was in Minot but it's actually in Wahpeton, here on the eastern border.

Slick, does it really matter? As long as the horse was consenting, everything should be cool.

I'd have to vote for (or would that be against?) North Dakota. We have five clubs in the whole state (at least per this site). The Northern in Fargo pretends that it's an upscale club, given the prices for cover and dances. In Devils Lake, you have no idea if or when Outlaws is going to be open. As for the other three, I've never been to them, but considering they're out in oil country, I'll probably pass. One guy I know is from that area and he made it sound like there should be more 2am reports.
For Canada, I'd have to go with Manitoba. Never been to any other province -- for that matter, any other city than Winnipeg -- but the last club I went to was pretty over-priced (worse than the Northern), dancers were scarce (something like 30+ minute breaks between dancers), and lap dances are illegal. Nuts, why pay $30 to watch a dancer get naked on a small stage three feet in front of you when you could watch her do the exact same thing on the main stage?

Utilikilts aren't uncommon at Gen Con. Nuts, I've seen Wil Wheaton wandering around the ICC in one.

Gaca, in American, I think it means that some upper-class, well-to-do guys, after they get drunk, lose some of their inhibitions and want to get it on with another guy.

The robot danced better than some flesh-and-blood dancers I've seen.
