It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

After Dark was a New York City magazine targeted to gay men, covering nightlife, entertainment and culture. While it may have appeared in women's magazines at the time (I seem to remember seeing it in a few old ones), most likely in this case it was being marketed to drag queens.

No, no, no! After Dark was certainly a very gay friendly magazine, but it also had a strong female readership. It covered theater and the arts - it wasn't just a gay stroke mag.

It all has to do with the Natural Look prevalent in the early 70s. You were considered to be very uptight and square to wear a bra, and so if you wanted to be hip you're nipples would be showing. But if you still wanted breast support you would wear the Nippleator.

It's the same market of Faux Hippie Fashion as glue-on sideburns for accountants.

eta: Anyway, drag queens were not particularly interested in emulating natural look hippie girls.

For me, tater tots have forever been tainted by the memory of school cafeterias.

Tainted Tots - good band name.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah. And I sorta' feel like the words "tater tot" should be followed by the word "casserole."

Why is everyone chucking the hashbrowns?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Because they haven't had the cubed ones that are crispy almost burnt on the outside with tabasco and Heinz 57.

Why is everyone chucking the hashbrowns?

I love!!!! hashbrowns but a lot of places don't do them to my liking (usually they undercook them I think).

Yeah. Tater tots are much easier to chuck accurately and to greater distances.

Another thing I learned in school cafeterias.
