Sigh Some day there'll be fresh, new tiki here and I will shout it out from the highest mountaintop, er, sandbar ... Joe Redner is quite the local character, contantly locking horns with the uptight City Council types. Tampa, which is known around the country as a mecca for strip club, um, enthusiasts, now has a city ordinance requiring dancers to remain six feet from customers. Kinda like requiring a watchmaker to wear boxing gloves. Now, I've only been in a strip club once (and that was to play a gig, an employees' Xmas party - no, really) but if that's how someone wants to spend their time and money, that's their own damn business. But that's just me, one of those life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness wackos. WARNING - EEEWWWW FACTOR 10 One Sunday morning, a friend was driving past Mons Venus, Joe's flagship club and workers had the booths outside in the front parking lot. And they were hosing them down and scrubbing them with deck brushes.

WARNING - EEEWWWW FACTOR 10

One Sunday morning, a friend was driving past Mons Venus, Joe's flagship club and workers had the booths outside in the front parking lot. And they were hosing them down and scrubbing them with deck brushes.
