This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I kept driving by this place that I thought was a bar when I lived in L.A. called Jumbo's Clown Room. Eventually I thought I had to stop and go into a place with a name like that. Sadly, it was a strip club (which I'm not into anyway) with a stripper looking as I imagine another stripper could not possibly have looked as bored as she was.

We got to be talking about different places, Continental Club I went to and met Mojo was in Houston.
