report & notification

So, brief report - there are no poles at the Cobra Lounge. However, there were a TON of roller derby girlz and their associated friends, lovers, hangers-on. Made for a very interesting mix of folk. The focal point of the bar was the stage where a woman with a wooden paddle was smacking people on the ass (people went up there willingly) while everyone stood around watching, then oooohing and aaaaahing. Mind you, this was no soft tap. She was hitting people hard, the noise resounding around the bar. very interesting. Also, on an unrelated note, I'm going out of town for 2 weeks, so when I don't respond to e-mails, that's why. Just to gloat and rub it in, I'll be in South Africa on an amazing tour generously organized by Annette & her mom. yahoo!
