I actually met a woman who had a BA in semiotics from Brown who had worked as a stripper. But she gave it up to do voiceovers and hand modeling.
Please tell me she had violet eyes. Please please please.
Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I knew someone in college who worked as a stripper. She was majoring in Women's Studies and something else. English, maybe? I just tried googling her to see what she's doing now. I found an entry on IMDB for one role in a short film, and a report of her being arrested for possession of marijuana.

No, and I didn't check to see if she had a beautiful singing voice. I think brown hair and brown eyes from Brown.
But she was totally cool! I was on a flight that had a long (4 hour) layover at Newark (People's Express!) and she badgered me into taking the bus into Manhattan and poking around and doing stuff instead of sitting in Newark. In fact, she gave me the bus money.
Also, she initiated the conversation. And talked a lot about the stripping experience, noting that doing four hours shifts had her in great shape. And that she never got pawed over because of the bouncers. (Most of her stripping was in NJ.)
I've met curiously generous people going into and out of Manhattan, actually. We had a cabbie once willing to take us from Battery Park to the Bronx for like six dollars.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Now I feel like I'm letting the department down, what with my total lack of sex work.

Fencing is cool! Possibly even more cool than stripping. Maybe if you could combine them; just a thought.

But I thought everybody that went to Brown went into comedy. Comedy and semiotics and fencing and sex work, apparently.
I like that resume.
No wait...Emma Watson is merely a millionaire actress and occasional fashion model.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I just spilled bourbon on the cat.
Oops

Man, I shoulda gone to Brown.
Which cat, Lee?

Is the cat licking it off, or giving you a pissy look?

Bubba, who just had his first bath too.
He is not very happy with me right now.
