That's a nice patina on that piece of furniture. Looks like it is an early 19th century walnut or mahogany piece. Or is it a reproduction ? Many antiques dealers are very clever at making new furniture look old. Chains, coffee stains, bashing an old bit of wood around, smoke rooms, false papers etc.

[LibertarianInExile]

Nah, it's repro. Look to the right. You can see the plywood in the box there.

[Red Sea Swimmer]

The value of the piece has just plummeted. Next time I will have to enlarge the picture and do some more antique forensic detective work.

[The Red Zone]

Good money, but they can't use it to buy their hearts back.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

I never met anyone who made much doing it.

Yes that kind of stripping is lucrative as well. I wanted to have a ceder chest done. $500.00. Ended up doing it myself.

MTV has a lot to do with this.

I think so, too. And encouraging little girls to wear a line of clothing that has "Porn Star" written on the clothes in glitter helps, too. I couldn't believe it the first time I saw a 9-yr old turn up at after school recreational program run by a friend wearing a "Porn Star" top. My friend made the girl put another tee shirt over it - and the parents couldn't understand why.

A tip sheet he distributes to students... offers such nontraditional suggestions as exotic dancing, stripping and acting as a spiritual medium

I think Hell has just about used up all it's allocation of large hand baskets.

I think some parents need to get together a tar-and-feather party not only for Mr. brain-Fried but also for the principals, guidance counselors and middle school teachers of this obscene "school". Enough is enough. This is child abuse.

remember good ole STRIPPYMOM? ; )

I wonder what happened to that sexy buck-toothed cookie?

[Dashing Dasher]

I heard this on the news this morning!

Wasn't there a teacher or other reasonable adult in the room to stop him before he got too far down this path?

Unbelievable! And this is his 3rd year doing this....

[Dashing Dasher]

Sure, maybe he shouldn't have been talking to 13-year-olds about stripping at all, but there's a big difference between encouraging them to become strippers, and using stripping as a cautionary example of why you shouldn't be fixated on money.

Read the story again...
He was advocating stripping as LUCRATIVE... for those who ARE fixated on $$$.

No one makes $500 an hour without sex involved.

Many attorneys make that much and more without sex involved...well, not sex like you'd commonly describe, er, sex...

I'm talking about people in the massage industry. Follow the thread.

[independentmind]

Here we have the natural result of a "values-free" approach to education.

[Snardius]

I'm talking about people in the massage industry. Follow the thread.

There are quite a few attorneys in the "massage" industry...they're just not massaging bodys. [heh]

[John Lenin]

I've made close to $500 an hour myself on a few jobs, with no sex involved. It's amazing what some of us with no advanced degrees can make.

[Kevin OMalley]

This is one of the "better" school districts in the area.



We have been discussing inexpensive ways to fast track kids through high school to avoid the liberal agenda:

The thread title was not well thought out, because some parents might instinctively skip over it due to attached stigma, whether real or imagined.

[Ignatz]

250,000 bills tall?

[beaversmom]

I've seen adults wear those shirts but never a child. That's really disgusting.

[Doctor Stochastic]

It can be a chilling experience in the wrong climate.

Didn't Monica get an $80k a year job at Revlon for giving blow jobs and keeping quiet about it?
