You're quite the big time operator. It would cost at least $2 to write and mail a cheque up here. Almost that much to send the money by etransfer. I would just send one of these http://gfretwell.com/ftp/2%20dollar%20bills.jpg Just like my buddy who passed away couple years ago. He always used $2 bills. Back in the 60's the air force base at which my dad was stationed would pay the airmen in $2 bills...their whole check. Of course the checks weren't as big back then. The purpose was to show the communities how much money the military was spending on the local economy. The idea was pretty good for a few months after that payday all one would see was $2 bills everywhere. Don't know if other military installations did that or not. I'm sure the strippers were thrilled! They are part of the local economy, right? |

There may have been some in Knob Noster, just outside the base, but I can't remember anything like a strip club anywhere while I was in high school. I got a job and moved away right after that, so don't know if a few may have moved in. |

They had "go go" dancers but they basically wore bikinis and hooker boots. I went to one of those clubs in New York where the girls worked on the bar and occasionally would flash a little fur or boob but only very late and for a pretty good tip. I dated a dancer in DC but she quit when they wanted her to go topless. It was a far different time. |

It had a whorehouse on the 'other side of the tracks', but I never made it there either. There undoubtably whore houses in the area. I grew up in an area with no close military base, and a strip of county land was pretty wide open. Whore house there. I was too young to avail myself of the women, but I delivered newspapers there on my route. |

I remember my dentist in those days, telling of his insurance agent trying to talk insurance as a topless waitress leaned over to serve the food. ABC, beverage control, or the food police, shut down food waitressing for health reasons. Still could have dancers. |
