Cigarettes and Lip Gloss

We headed to a pool hall we frequent, it was league night so the only choice was dominoes and rye at the bar. After quickly running up a forty dollar tab and losing many bets while playing dominoes, I find myself walking into a small town strip club. As I walk in, grab a drink and sit down, all I can smell is whiskey, cigarettes and urine... After a few poor attempts by some money hungry girls to get us to go for a VIP dance, we headed outside for some air only to find some interesting, nay, disturbing news. While standing beside a dumpster behind the strip club, two strippers wearing nothing but lingerie in the rain, standing on a bed of cigarette butts, lip gloss and mud, informed us there were thirty two girls working that night, whether they were in the club it self, or in the coke filled apartments upstairs, thirty two girls total, all fighting for the attention, nay the money, of maybe fifteen men. Not only that, but one girl in particular was quoted as saying: "hey, if it's a slow night, I don't mind doing anal for $200"... This was still not the highlight of my night, no this happened when I asked a stripper from Montreal, "what brings you to a small town for this kind of work?".... After brief thought she replied "a driver"..... I knew then it was definitely time to leave.

The pillow feels nice after a night like this.

A very short review of Q and A by Vikas Swarup

This is the book that Slumdog Millionaire was based on, and it is way better than the movie, and way more graphic. They almost changed too much of the story for the flick, I mean what would be wrong about showing the main character kill a man and point a gun at the host? But I guess it would be wierd to show the police shove a stick covered in hot sauce up a kids ass, or the main character falling in love with a young prostitute, or the multiple disturbing boy rape scenes... Yeah it's messed up, but all in all, awesome book and it lands in the pile of books that were ruined by film.

You're welcome.
