Bombshell Winners Announced

This was a tough call as I only got a handful of entries, but I have decided two winners on a whim.

Mrs. Flax and Julie

But I still want to thank everyone for participating, and don't fret because there are sure to be some more chances to win coming soon, and more prizes are going to be added such as swarovski crystal Bombshell shirts, bookmarks, and the like.

Perhaps you would like to know my answers? All right, here they are.

  1. What is the worst thing you have ever done for money (worked at Burger King? Dug through elephant poo? Sold your body? Think hard.)
I had to think about this one. Was it the few months I spent as a housekeeper for a mad Russian doctor who lived in a mansion full of bedrooms that were larger than my apartment? Hmm...no, because I learned a lot from that experience and it may end up as a side plot of a book someday. No, the worst thing I ever did for money was work for Hickory Farms, or as I refer to it, Hickory Hell. You know, those cute people wearing blue aprons in the mall who sell cheese and beef sticks. Yes, that. The job sucked because of the sample giving. You had to approach random people throughout the mall and go "Want to try some beef stick?" People would shout at me that my shit was overpriced, or that it was sad that we couldn't even give it away. I got in a fight with a lass on my last day because she got all up in my face and was quite upset that I offered her my beef. She was vegan. How could I have known?
  1. Is exotic dancing/stripping akin to prostitution? Why? Site your sources if any.
No. Prostitution is selling sex. Exotic dancing is dancing exotically and sometimes intoxicated, depending on the club. There is a very big difference. If a dancer sells sex, she is a prostitute, but the girl next to her who does not sell sex is not a prostitute by proxy. See?
  1. If the person you loved absolutely hated you, would you shorten their life by 10 years if it meant that they would love you back?
No, I just couldn't see myself doing that to someone. Witchcraft maybe, but not shortening someone's life. I can still love a person even if it isnt reciprocated.
  1. If your city decided to put in a strip club, or for those whose cities already have them decided to close the strip club(s,) write your argument to your city for or against the placement/removal of this club. If you cannot include your town name, just call it "Small Town" or "Big City" accordingly.
Dear Beaumont, Ca,

If we don't get a strip club, we won't know what to do with our loitering teenagers when they come of age. Also it might keep more idiots off the road during normal driving hours. If we could keep everyone contained inside of a building full of naked girls for just a few hours a day, Beaumont would thrive. The lines at Wal Mart would be insignificant. Either strip club or bowling alley, whatever you think might be best. We just need something to do here.
  1. When you read an article about a female stripper being raped, beaten, murdered, etc. do you feel that she was asking for it with the type of job that she had? Should she have assumed the risk? Did she get herself into this mess by doing the work that she did?
No, I feel really bad for girls who get hurt doing this job. People need money, for some this is the way to get it, and they shouldn't be punished because of it. Nobody "asks" for it, but there are times when people need to be smarter about their decisions. Don't tell people your name or where you live, or add them on Myspace, just don't do it! Be smart about this stuff! Your life could be at risk.

BONUS ROUND!

If you were a stripper, what would be your stage name and what song would you dance to?


I would be Henrietta Pussycat. Do you love it? A throwback to your childhood AND it sounds dirty. I would dance to "Lullaby" by The Cure. I could get my hips going to that song, I could I could.

Thanks for playing along, I'll let you know when the next chance to win is.

SWEET! I haven't won anything since those Bush/No Doubt tickets from the 90s, and all I got then was a case of tinnitis and cup of mucus thrown at my head.

I look forward to the read!
