Thank goodness - I was beginning to wonder where the next generation of strippers were going to come from!

I just finished telling my college students this story no more than 15 minutes ago. It is hilarious!

I love his quote, "for every 2 inches, 'up there', you could earn an extra $50,000."

That is just classic!

Now the fundamentalists have something new to get their panties in a wad over!
Why is there always money for war, but none for education?

I heard about this guy today on the morning news. I thought it was pretty funny

Anyway, I doubt he caused any harm.

Technically true, I suppose; strippers can earn truly impressive amounts of money. At the same time, when you consider the working conditions, you've got to wonder: is it really any way to live?

If we don't want to encourage eighth-graders to work in coal mines or textile factories, then we shouldn't be encouraging them to work as strippers either. Sure, some actually like that kind of work, and that's their prerogative, but the last thing we need to be doing is seducing people with money into work that most people hate.
You are in Soviet Russia. It is dark. Grue is likely to be eaten by YOU!

"Fried spent about a minute answering questions, defining strippers and exotic dancers synonymously. According to Jason Garcia, 14, he told students: "For every 2 inches up there, you should get another $50,000 on your salary." "

Uhm, so if you want to make $ 250,00, yuo only need 10" up there ?
