Next door to Dennis Hof's place in Nye County is a far better operation. Prices are negotiated, the split is 51/49, the doctors test the babes once a week, their licenses are for THAT house ONLY; room and board is provided for $46 a day, they are independent contractors, 25 of them are always there at a time, (no more or less than 25 ) and either you can have made an appointment in advance, for one specific one you selected, and meet the hostess at the right hand door, or go into the "Sports Bar", and go in the left door, order a drink and and request a line up. Take the "house tour" and negotiate the price, and the services, and each interview can't last over 10 minutes.

Or show up with a previously made appointment. Either drive in, or get the free round trip limo service from 60 miles south (from wherever you are in Las Vegas) BUT that will be kicked back to the limo driver in the price you pay, of course. So it is not free.

Most of the babes actually love sex, and can prove it, and the ones that do not are consummate actresses.

They are only allowed to work for a couple or three weeks at a time; then they must take a mandatory vacation of up to three months.

But they are not allowed to leave the premises for the duration of the time they are working inside. One of them actually (half?) jokingly called it doing time in the "Pussy Prison".

Most employees make a huge amount of money because it is a very different clientele being catered to. Not just some $200 - $300 encounter.

Condoms are mandatory per state law. No exceptions.

And this information is from just last month so it is very accurate.

What he means is..compareing Singapore to switzerland..or compareing switzerland to the U.S. would be considered ambitious on your part.

Totally differant animals.

Lets hope this is not one of your usual pissing matches between compareing Europe and S.E. Asia..the point is moot.

It is possible. It hinges on psychology of the people which is so difficult to pin down that I place little credence in what they say. It is practically impossible to limit it, unlike car repair for instance to say that if you do this, that will happen. Any one thong can change the whole equation.

Hof's operations tend to have higher prices. I also happen to know some people who've worked for him and they say he's not so great to work for. There are four ranches in Mound House (5 miles up the road from me) and he owns two of them. The other two are generally a better deal.

Actually Chili Mac was the first one to bring up prositution.

I spoke with a man who had a $400 cell phone seized by a TSA gate agent for no reason. One of his relatives works for the airlines and told him that the cell phones are then resold for $5.

Just because it hasn't happened to you (yet), doesn't mean it isn't happening to others.
live and learn. Do you want me to cry for you?

A liberal is someone who feels a great debt to his fellow man, which debt he proposes to pay off with your money.

A Republican or Libertarian or TEA party member is someone who feels a great debt to the super rich and very large corporations, which debt he proposes to pay off with your money.

I feel no debt to super rich people or large corporations, and do not want to pay them with anyone's money.

Why do you think the tea party espouses your statement? I've never seen the tea party say we should be paying rich people because we owe them a debt.

Your attempt at a quote to counter the one I posted is weak Tom.

I find this statement REALLY odd! I am none of those three, but I am indeed a conservative, which is what I think that you are shooting at.

I feel absolutely no obligation toward big corporations or the super rich. I DO, however, understand that punishing them would be counterproductive to producing jobs.

I don't think that I'm alone in this logic. As far as I'm concerned ANY of these organizations or individuals within these organizations that have done anything illegal or done anything shady with taxpayer money should GO TO JAIL! At the same time, I have NEVER seen a poor person give anyone a job.

Bingo! No weaker than yours.

I'm a fiscal conservative too.

I just think that big corporations and super rich folks don't need the government's help and regular folks like us who work for a living and so forth need to be protected from the first group.

As far as a poor person never creating a job? Meaningless drivel (sorry).

When the middle and working class is gainfully employed they spend their money. The economy booms and jobs are created. Ordinary people do create jobs.

There are a lot more jobs in building chevys and washing machines than there are in building 100 foot yachts,

There may be a rich person who organizes the factory to build washing machines but if nobody buys them it is worthless.

When rich people put all their money into gold and stocks when the economy is not booming nobody can win except the rich person or the broker.

When regular folks enjoy prosperity we all prosper.

You are correct! Big corporations and the ultra rich should NOT be subsidized by the government. At the same time, they should not be punished by the Government unless they have violated the law.
