Lololololooolololololol
 
Larry Flynt is nothing if not entertaining. Who else needs a bailout? There is a local former motel, converted to apartments (prosperity, anyone?), and the owner wants to turn the restaurant/lounge into a topless coffee-shop. The planning board has ruled that they do not have the authority to deny his application based on the attire of the employees, and have approved his application.

Watch that scalding-hot coffee, Honey! Ooh! that's got to hurt! Can I kiss it better? :smile:
 
Of course they need a bailout. They are about to go bust.

i think larry is making a political statement here, one i happen to agree with. i can't think of anything more pornographic than bailing out rich people after a market crash.

Can we have a non-sexual definition of "obscenity"? The early stages of the give-away (oops! bailout) sure erase that line.
 
Don't they need a pull out?

“The take here is that everyone and their mother want to be bailed out from the banks to the big three,” said Owen Moogan, spokesman for Larry Flynt. “The porn industry has been hurt by the downturn like everyone else and they are going to ask for the $5 billion. Is it the most serious thing in the world? Is it going to make the lives of Americans better if it happens? It is not for them to determine.”
I guess not. I guess. :rolleyes:
