Debbie Does Dallas - The Comic Book
2008-02-27 06:18:00
Every year at the Adult Entertainment Expo, thousands of interesting and bizarre sex products are unveiled to the lustful public. From the obvious ready made porn to the newest in fuck toys and sex tech, you can find pretty much anything there. On hand this year were edgy comic book makers Terminal Press who have debuted their limited edition of ?Debbie Does Dallas ? the comic book which coincides with the 30th anniversary of the classic adult movie.The comic?s plot sounds more science fiction than body friction. In the book, Debbie finds herself stranded and under the threat of nuclear decimation in the days leading up to the apocalypse. As one of very few survivors left, she will battle her way through hordes of the living dead, aided only by an abandoned military exoskeleton and the will to make it out of Dallas, Texas alive.Debbie Does Dallas is illustrated by Rolo Ledesma, written by Brian Ferrara, with colors by Narek Gevorgian and color separation by Joe Frazzetta and Keith Mc...

Ex-Stripper wins Academy Award
2008-02-26 04:54:00
On Sunday night a former stripper won an Academy Award for best original screenplay. Over the last year the internet has been abuzz about ex stripper Diablo Cody. As a one time exotic dancer in Minnesota she wrote about her experiences first on her blog, The Pussy Ranch which eventually was turned into her first novel, Candy Girl: A Year in the Life of an Unlikely Stripper . The book garnered rave reviews but hit was her screenplay for the Academy Award nominated movie, Juno that really brought her much attention lately.Cody, whose real name is Brook Busey-Hunt graduated from the University of Iowa?s media studies program and has written for various websites and magazines over the years. I remember coming across The Pussy Ranch along time ago but never got into reading it. I recently got her book which I intend to read if I can ever find the time. Juno was an OK movie, not sure if it deserved best screenplay though but whatever. Nice to see another rags to riches Hollywood story. Dia...

Is the iPhone worth it?
2008-02-22 06:13:00
I love my 160 gig iPod, I don?t think I?d ever part with it. Having my entire music collection and dozens of pod casts and movies with me sure is nice and handy. Mrs. Wadd has the iPod Touch which is also fun to play with because you can surf the net as well (look at porn). I can certainly see why so many people convert to Apple products and become fan boys. Elegantly designed and functional products. While I?m not quite ready to run out and buy myself a mac yet I am finding myself lusting after the iPhone lately. The more and more I see the commerical, the more I do want.I don?t know anyone who has one though so I couldn?t really say whether I?d shell out the money for one for real without getting some feedback or reviews first. So if you?ve got one, leave me a comment and tell me if you like it or not, or think it is worth the hype, if it works well as a phone and as a portable web surfer. I?d be interested in hearing people?s opinions. If you do own an iPhone, Big Brain Studios h...

Bill Gates goes to strip clubs?

Porn star Michelle Lays (pictured) claims the world?s richest dude Bill Gates , is a bad tipper. Lay, who used to be a Las Vegas stripper claims that she once danced for the Beastmaster, or at least a man who claimed to be him.?He tipped me one dollar! He tipped the waitress one dollar too. I swear to God, it?s not a lie. He?s a shitty tipper; that?s why he?s so rich!?Lay has nicer memories of dancing for Pamela Anderson, and enjoyed dancing for her so much that she did it for free.Personally i haven't met too many celebrities at the club other than sports stars such as NFL & NHL players who are usually very good tippers.

An economic analysis of a gentlemen's club
2008-02-19 09:30:00
It is no secret owning a strip club is like having license to print money, espcially if you run it well. So much cash flow, so easily skimmable. While many clubs differ on their bottom lines, the basics are pretty much the same. I came across this interesting article on the web from a dude who did a quick study of strip club economics. While it is extremely brief and clearly written from an outsider's point of view with few of the many important details, it is still an intersting read.Freakynomics: An economic analysis of a gentlemen's clubBy: Sam BaierRichard Feynman, Pacman Jones and Dennis Rodman-all great men, all leaders in their respective fields. All frequent strip club patrons.Coincidence? I think not.Strip clubs are, as defined by noted social commentator Chris Rock, "a place for all the married men of America." As a demographic with a decent amount of discretionary income, these men are the driving economic force behind the $5 billion strip club industry. This capital is...

Tales of the Inevitable - Lindsay Lohan naked on the internet
2008-02-18 19:09:00
New York Magazine has published topless and fully naked photos of LiLo's latest photoshoot. The shoot is supposed to be some sort of tribute to a shoot done by Marylin Monroe back in the day. While Lindsay Lohan naked on the internet is no shocker, as always, i post the pics here on BTN for your judgement. While LiLo sure has a nice rack and would be most definitely a fun party girl when she's off the wagon, those freckles are relentless. The smattering of birthmarks down near her sweet spot would make going down on her truly like digging for clams in a sand bar.

Sorry no refunds
2008-02-18 06:08:00
A Hamilton, Ontario (Canada) judge has reaffirmed for a man that money can’t in fact buy love. It might possibly rent it though.Ralph Fiore sued an exotic dancer after he had lavished more than $30,000 worth of gifts and money on her during frequent visits to the Hamilton Strip, a club in the southern ontario city. Fiore claimed the amount was a loan, but Justice Nick Borkovich didn’t buy it.He found Fiore was “hopelessly in love� with the dancer and determined his gift-giving was an attempt to make her reciprocate “his feelings of love.� Borkovich threw out the suit last month after a one-day hearing.The defendant, who didn’t want her name used because she is now a real estate agent, provides us with THE MONEY QUOTE:“It’s not Wal-Mart. There isn’t a 30-day return guarantee.�

Pamela Anderson debuts as stripper
2008-02-17 06:23:00
MILF Pamela Anderson ?s debut as a stripper, by all accounts went well this past week as she decided to take the stage at a club in Paris, France. Anderson sported a sheer black body stocking and made her stage bow on the back of a motorcycle in front of 500 enthusiastic fans at the famous Crazy Horse Saloon. Anderson did two shows, and both were sold out.?She was great! She was totally into it ? it was impressive. And the crowd responded very warmly." Said one attendee.Though the Crazy Horse specializes in presenting topless dancers, "It's a celebration of women," says Anderson.."It's done very respectfully, very classy, and it's a wonderful show for women as well as for men."It's also wonderful for the Crazy Horse, because Anderson says she did the show for free. Tickets just to get in were around $300 per person. "This isn't for money," said Anderson. "It's just for the love of the art, and the Crazy Horse does it best."The Money quote:"They have to cover their costs. They f...

Hell's Kitchener
2008-02-15 07:18:00
The only two (and successful) strip clubs in Kitchener, Ontario Canada have managed to survive what could have been the quick demise of their business if plans had gone ahead by an angry city council to outright ban all private dances AND table dances. Instead city councillors passed a new adult entertainment bylaw this week that doesn't ban traditional table dancing. This was a change from the proposed bylaw brought before council two weeks ago that would have made table dancing illegal. At the time, strip club owners said a ban would put them out of business. Since then, city staff have met with the club owners. The result is a bylaw that allows table dancing but still tightens rules against restricted private areas for watching strippers.Bill Popazotos, co-owner of the Doll House, was happy table dancing can continue at his club, and unhappy with other parts of the bylaw."We got to keep table dancing, which is good, which is essential to the business," Popazotos said.With table ...

SI's swimsuit issue - yawn

Earlier this week on The Late Show with David Letterman (which I never even knew people still watched) Sports Illustrated (which I never knew people still read) revealed that model Marisa Miller is this year?s cover girl for their annual swimsuit issue.Personally I couldn?t think of anything else more irrelevant that SI?s swimsuit issue, well except maybe MTV. But I am old enough to remember when this announcement and the arrival of the issue used to be some kind of big deal, I think it was 1985. Finally, something else came in the mail to masturbate to other than the Victoria?s Secret catalogue!Nowadays with so many model?s homepages, porn and celebrity beaver shots freely available on the internet does anyone even still care about the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue?

Vixens, not veal

You won?t find any meat at a new strip club in Portland, but you will find a whole lot of flesh. Casa Diablo claims to be the world?s first vegan strip club, there's no meat, eggs or dairy on the menu. The club reflects the ideals of its owner, Johnny Diablo who is obviously under the impression people go to strip clubs for the quality and type of food.The money quote:?My very sole purpose in life is to save as many creatures from pain and suffering as possible.? said Diablo, possibly at the same time that one of his dancers was being slapped by her pimp for not brining home enough bacon.Diablo, a vegan for more than 20 years, insists his club isn?t a publicity stunt. He hopes to expose people to the vegan way and change the way they think. While it may not be the most orthodox way to win over new vegans, Diablo hopes people bring some green and eat some green at his new club.Money quote number 2:?We put the meat on the pole, not on the plate.?In addition to laying claim to the wor...

Whatever, it's either i give up booze or editing, not both, deal with it!Anyways i like how the show turned out either way, did some rambling, played some good tracks and also got to interview the sexy and intelligent Ryann Rain, who discusses with me the problems Vancouver strip clubs are facing and her new exciting project of Stiletto Storm.Show ran a little longer than i would have liked but makes for good listening on a commute or wherever you listen to your podcasts, promise to make the next one shorter if the public demands it.You can listen to, download or subscribe to the show here, or as always by clicking on the BTN graphic on the left hand side of this page.Your input, comments and suggestions are always valued so leave em if ya got em, enjoy!

Just another day, just another shooting
2008-02-09 09:26:00
I was reading the headlines on yahoo news yesterday and I couldn?t help but get depressed by the not so rare item of another shooting rampage by a student at a college in Louisiana. A nursing student shot two women to death and then killed herself in front of horrified classmates at the Louisiana Technical College in Baton Rouge. The shootings came just hours after a gunman killed two police officers and three city officials on Thursday night when he stormed into a city council meeting in a suburb of St. Louis, Missouri. He was later shot dead by police.There isn?t a month that hardly goes by in the United States where someone doesn?t go on a rampage with a gun and kill people at either a school, a mall or workplace. Most of them barely make national headlines anymore unless they have record breaking body counts like the worst shooting rampage in modern U.S. history, where a student with a history of mental illness killed 32 people at Virginia Tech university in April 2007 before tu...

The Decline of Canadian Strip Clubs ? PART 2
2008-01-30 06:01:00
Continued from Part 1At the dawn of the new millennium Canadian strip clubs had been enjoying great success. Clubs were busy with plenty of customers and dancers, Canadian clubs had earned a reputation as party destination for their liberal rules and general debauchery. But a big drop in business was about to happen due to several reasons.With the introduction of lap dancing, the industry changed from being about burlesque to being about bump and grind. Before the dancers danced, whether it be on a stage or on a table, in public. There was no contact between customer and dancer. Girls had to put effort into their shows to stand out and there was a certain amount of showmanship, beauty and talent that went along with it. Lap dancing changed all that. Girls no longer had to be beautiful and talented, all they had to do was get naked and grind against your lap, usually in a semi private room. Allowing the show to take place in these darkened VIP rooms also invited way more prostitution...

The Decline of Canadian Strip Clubs - PART 1
2008-01-27 23:34:00
There has been a general downturn in business for many of the strip clubs here in Canada. There seems to be less and less customers coming out these days, and with that less quality girls working the circuit making a lot less money. A recent visit to former local hotspot that used to feature over 50 exotic dancers nightly had only 7 on a Saturday night. Quick stopovers at the other clubs in the area found much more subdued and smaller crowds than there used to be. What is causing the downturn in an industry that was known for printing money? Why have Canada?s world famous strippers started disappearing?Back in the early 1990?s business was good in the local peeler bars. While lucrative for its time, the $5 and $10 table dance was on its way out and something much more intimate and expensive had appeared on the scene, the $20 lap dance. Clubs and dancers alike were beginning to rake in some serious cash. Club owners quickly redesigned their clubs with less stage room to make more bac...

Pole Tax Proliferates
2008-01-24 06:18:00
A year ago I wrote about a proposed tax on strip club patrons by the state of Texas. This has now since become law in Texas, as of January 1st this year, customers have to pay a $5 cover fee or surcharge for entering any strip club. The ridiculous fee which has become known as the ?pole tax? will bring in an estimated $40 million dollars in revenue for the state and most of the proceeds will supposedly go towards programs that support victims of sexual assault.Texas club owners are fruitlessly trying to fight the new levy via a court injunction but new taxes concepts are like the village whore, once everyone catches wind that she?s giving out free hummers, everyone wants in on the action. State lawmakers in New Mexico have now introduced a new bill (bill 64) that will introduce the very same fee that Texas does on its peeler bars and if approved will take effect January 1st 2009.This sounds like a dangerous precedent that will spreading all across the country soon.

If you don?t closely scrutinize your monthly bills closely, you should. It always amazes me how often companies will often try and sneak in some unknown charge assuming their customers will not notice it. Two recent examples of this had me on the phone with the billing departments. One of satellite TV providers here in Canada is Bell Expressvu to which I am a customer. On my current bill I noticed a charge of $3.00 hidden away in the bill labeled ?Le Special Gros Appetits?. I had no fucking clue as to what it was for, it sounded like some weird French porno movie. After checking with Mrs. Wadd just to make sure she wasn?t rubbing herself to Francois while I wasn?t home I was on the phone dialing through the dreaded call center maze.The rep I get on the phone tells me that it was actually a mistake and it should have been labeled ?Digital Upgrade Charge? which is a new charge they are applying to everyone?s account, monthly from now on.

It is no coincidence that last week?s Consumer Electronic Show ran concurrently with the Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas.

Cheaper and better video cameras saturated the market with would be directors, actors and producers. Fuck films were there well represented when the DVD revolution happened and you don?t have to look far for it on their internet either.
