Uhm, well he could be, like me. Cause I know some really interesting people, but I'm responsible. Honest. Just odd. And you're right. The reality has nothing to do with it. Just the illusion. And I guess I've seen the damage done too close to home to think it's funny. I dated a porn star. And an "exotic dancer" (souped up term for stripper/lap dancer). And I lived with what they went through doing what they did for a living. And I worked at a bar that catered to them and talked daily with them as they let off steam. "Customers" were not allowed. It was their place to get away from them. And to get away from them is what they wanted. And laugh we did. Away from the customers. Away from the men who watch porn to get off on. Who watch strip teases to get off on. Customers. Nothing more or less. Our bar was the sanctuary. There you were good people or bad people. Good people stayed. And no customers got near you. Some damn shwred investors amongst 'em I met. They took the money and made good. Made me proud.
