I think I'm actually "over-porned" if that's possible. I'm so desensitized to direct close up cooter and tit shots, that I find myself more aroused by lingerie and swimsuit pictures. Fucked up.

What the hell, it's Friday. I don't like to look at porn for just this reason. I don't object to it at all, but I don't like the way it reprograms me.

I think it's safe to say that if I went to a strip club and spent so much money that national newspapers were in awe of me, there might be a rise in marital strife in my home.

at the least you'd have to let her buy that new sofa/love seat combo.

You mean the last 50 posts are irrelevant? Can't be.

When the Lutheran minister sat us down a couple of days before the wedding, our views on strippers was number six or seven on her agenda.

If she was Missouri Synod, I know you're joking, but I wouldn't put that past a clergyperson ordained by the ELCA.

Don't be an ass. I don't care what people do or not in a relationship, as long as they don't object to the same treatment from their partner, which people (male and female) often can't. I have zero tolerance for double standards. Do you really think this guy wouldn't be insane if the identical story on her side hit the press?

Its a harmless lark, and no man or woman can get upset about it.

Fringey is right on this one. She is projecting her fucked up view of the world on everyone else and pretending that there is a double standard.

If my wife was the CFO of anything and could afford to drop $28k at Chippendales or its equivalent, non-cheesy affiliates and the media picked it up, I would be upset about the fact that it was picked up. I'll admit that that is embarassing. Would I be looking around to fuck my maid as revenge while spending all our money? No. But that's because I don't have a huge stick up my ass.

And if she told me that there was no way she spent that kind of money and that she spent only $2,000 and they were trying to take advantage, I would be as outraged as she. And I would be on her side.

I also assume that she would tell me that she was going to a strip club. So, the fact that she was there probably wouldn't surprise me to the point of anger and scorched-earth divorce. But I wouldn't care if after the fact, she said, "We went out, got drunk and decided to go to a strip club." But that's only because I don't give a shit about strip clubs, unless she's fucking a dancer. And that ain't in the fact pattern.

You don't like it when Mr. pj goes to strip clubs. Fine.* But all your doing here is reading double standards into shit based on your own fucked up attitude, Velma. And it's stupid, especially when there is absolutely zero evidence of a double standard (like in the current example).

Nobody's impressed that he once modeled with Dan Quayle.

Not Missouri Synod, but I was way joking. She was from Finland, actually.

there Tony's one guy, Patty I think, who looks a little like Carmine.
A few seasons back there was a scene where he was talking to the FBI. Like half of everything that's been started it was not followed. Of course, maybe they're just setting up something for next season.
But Carmine? Won't see him anymore.

Raymond Curto, one of Tony's capos, is talking to the G... That's who you're referring to. This was last shown in the first episode this year during a funeral scene.

The character is only on once in a while...

Bush as a general term for the punany, not just the pubes.

I don't mind a little bush, but too much Bush can be stifling and cause global warming.

Hell, I wouldn't even care if my wife DANCED in a bar. I don't care who spies the equipment, just so long as I'm the only one using it.*

* She'd have to be paid, of course. I'm figuring strippers do damn well, since Uncle Sam doesn't see jack on that transaction.

I read in Esquire yesterday that the 70s bush is back. When is that magazine going to go under?

Probably as soon as my old ass stops buying the one copy they sell per month.

Any guy who "sneaks" to them gets caught anyway- matches in the pocket- credit card charge something. I have a friend who is close to an addict for clubs- and his wife gets pissed when she catches him. But the point is she catches him all the time. The liquor cuts into the ability to be secretive.

And any guy who thought he "only" ran up a $2000 tab would not be at Scores for the first time. He wife would either not give a shit, or be pissed but used to it.

It's impossible to come out of a strip joint w/out smelling like stripper.

Wonderful wonderful stripper.
