Who cares about it if you’re already dead? Seriously though, I think only people that have something to hide would be concerned. Those folks would fit into two categories: 1. People that are assumed to be straight yet live a hidden gay life that those around them know nothing about. The person in question may wish to take that secret to the grave. 2. People that are involved in serious illegal activities that they wish to keep hidden forever. Take your pick of what those illegal activities might be. Outside of those situations, why would anyone be concerned about their on-line actions being discovered?

I've been in contact with one of the FTL dancers. He and other dancers seem to think the club in Lauderdale is safe...for now.

Is it only the Tampa club that is in trouble or is the Fort Lauderdale location at risk also??

Matt has indicated on his Facebook page that he plans to move back to Atlanta. I hope that means he will open a strip club there. I do frequent Johnson’s in Ft. Lauderdale but, in all honesty, it irritates me to spend my gay dollars in a state where I am not respected. I would like to have options in other states. Atlanta would be perfect!!

Which location are you speaking about?

If it was the club right on the riverbank in the late 80's, it was JP's. Great club with worldclass strippers. Toronto and Montreal strippers used to cycle through there on the regular. It was wonderful. If it was later than that, it was probably The Happy Tap on Wyandotte in Windsor. Not nearly as good as JP's, but decent.

Yep. Lots of people need to choose their words more wisely…including on this thread. What’s next…hurling insults and hate at the victims on Bondi Beach? People’s choices are astounding nowadays.

So Sad. I appreciated his advocacy for important causes as well as his film work. RIP. The body isn't even cold yet, but our resident clown is already hurling insults at the deceased. Tacky and thoughtless as usual.

On his Facebook account, Matt says he has resigned from Johnsons. In the subsequent comments he says he never should have sold it. I wonder what's going on and how this will change the clubs...if at all.

I would agree that it would be great to have a male dancers club in Detroit. The Gold Coast lasted for many decades and there was a 10-20 year period where it was the best male strip club in the Midwest...including being better than anything in Chicago. Sadly, it started a long decline in around 2010. The last 5 years of its life were sad as the quality of the dancers dropped substantially. I blamed it on lousy ownership and poor management. It was doomed to failure with the crew that was running it.

Well I’ll offer a contrarian view on IHOP. I just finished having breakfast at one in Houston. First time I’ve been at an IHOP in probably 25 years. Yuck!! The service sucked. The food sucked. My ice water cup had obvious lipstick stains on the rim. I asked for fruit instead of hash browns. It arrived slimy like it had sat in the fridge for days. The fruit almost looked like it was fermenting. I might try IHOP again at a different location sometime, but based on today’s experience, I saw nothing redeeming about it. To me, it was an identical experience to eating at Denny’s. My favorite breakfast place is The Original Pancake House. The original one is in Portland OR. There are also locations in other places. The Original Pancake House WWW.ORIGINALPANCAKEHOUSE.COM America's finest Pancake House with over 100 franchises throughout the US, is a family oriented breakfast...

I've never heard anybody put Iberia and luxury in the same sentence before.

"Homeless" can mean different things according to varying situations. I was technically homeless for a year between 2015 and 2016. I was already retired and planning a year of heavy travel. I decided to give up my apartment in Houston, put everything in storage and then do lots of travel (cruises, vacations in Europe/South America, etc). I kept my P.O. Box in Houston and when I was in town (which was about 30% of the time), I stayed mostly at The Hilton Americas downtown (at the time, they had an excellent Hilton Members lounge with a great hot breakfast and also evening snacks + beer and cheap wine...all included in the room rate). I used to joke to friends at my local Houston watering hole that I was "premium homeless" and living at the Hilton. Back to reality and Kevin Spacey's situation. Obiously being on the street and truly homeless is awful. So far, Kevin is not in that situation. I didn't watch the above video, but I would be curious what his current net worth is. Has his money truly run out? I mean the guy had a huge/successful acting career that lasted decades. He had to have made tens (hundreds?) of millions of dollars during that time. Has he spent it all on legal fees and living large?

I sent you a PM.
