What I will never get ... is how so many of these owners with so much money to start with always have a knack of finding the thieves who rob them blind.

It's easy for an exotic dancer to get money from you when its 3am and you are alone in the private lounge. I think it's the same principle, you are intoxicated with the dream and the only thing that matters is the dream.. sort of like you today at Denny's. You heard about the free breakfast last week and the realty of today was the only thing that you could think about till you stiffed the poor waitress after you were done.. lol

Speaking of strippers, on the news they were talking about a club running promos of lap dances for a cause to benefit Haiti. Who says strippers are bad people?!

I really don't enjoy strip clubs at all. To each his own, but I just don't get how they're enjoyable....Lounges/clubs sure, strip clubs----not so much.

Is that where the NY Knicks used to get some extra attention? Stories in the papers a few years back.

Heck of a way to hear about Thorn Song. Too bad.

Seems like a good time to re-read "Wild Ride", if one wants to refresh about pyramid schemes, financial over-extension, bloodsucking agents, and financial fraud in a business that depends upon the performance of living animals to make money.

Freddy .... I'm feeding the homeless prime rib buffets complete with free beer.... that's the difference between guys like you and me.

Sure, you probably buy meals for family and friends ... but when have you ever made an effort to round up our not so fortuante fellow degenerate crazies and unleash them?

i was hoping it would turn out an incorrect story, but thought the chances of that were nil.

they going to rename him lazarus, if in fact he's still alive? at this point i'd say someone needs to show the horse so we know for sure.
