i guess what is really upsetting is i can;t even find work in my field for 12 bucks an hour and that is with 4 years in college and almost 10 years exp.

just seems like some jobs are dying for people and overpaying, then jobs that require skills they are low-balling cause they know some student will take it...
I also am curious about your field. CP has a lot of great resources as far as informed opinions and advice go. Maybe if you share some more information, someone might be able to step up and offer something...

The first rule of COTW Swing Club is that you do not talk about COTW Swing Club.

If this is your first night at COTW Swing club - you HAVE to swing!

Does this one have a swingers club, or a dungeon for S&M?

The Chicken on the Way Swingers club hit its heyday in 1989. Ever since then, it's been a downhill greasy slide.

I still don't like the chicken after the switch to the transfat free oil. It's drier and has less maillard reaction goodness going on. I'll still eat the corn fritters and fries happily, they seem to be less burnt than they used to be.

I'm going to ask him what he was really "working on".

Thats probably where they keep the goddamn chickens in the first place.

It must be hard to get into mood amidst all that incessant squawking and the prevailing atmosphere of certain doom.
That pretty much sums up 14 years of sex with my ex wife anyway, at least at the swingers club I'd get a decent meal.

Dropped by, scoped out the entire basement, got a video, confirmed false.

Sorry

Maybe there will be more luck to the glory hole viper pit underneath city hall rumor.

there may or not be a cigar shop on 8th ave, sorta near that Vietnamese place (thi this?) and kitty corner to the Husky tower. In the basement there's a sliding door disguised as a wall.

Heard about some stuff behind those doors.

I pointed out that as far as I can tell, there IS no basement at that place, and if there was, I can't imagine a less appropriate setting for getting it on, but hey, what do I know?

Personally, I think her "source" is, as we say in the business, "sucking on the crack pipe right down to the last fumes", but I have to ask - has anyone else heard this rumour? Or should I just go there and ask if it's true?
I kind of like that Crackmacs dispelled a myth that arose from "sucking on the crack pipe right down to the last fumes".
