If you meant serious, it is. The Lusty Lady is under union contracts -- probably the only business of its kind in America that is.

[No Truce With Kings]

A union organizer goes into a brothel. He asks if it is unionized. Told no, he states that he only gives his business to union shops, and asks if there are any union cathouses in town. He also states that he will pay twice the going rate, but only at a union shop.

The madame, of course, laughs him out of the place, so he goes to the next place down the block, and repeats the performance, with the same result.

After he has hit four more places, word has gotten out on the street, and a lady of the night comes up to the union man, and tells him that while she is non-union, she knows where a union shop is and for $10, she will take him there.

He agrees, and she leads him to a place on the other end of the red-light district. The madam, in on the joke, has put up a little sign announcing that the place is unionized. She welcomes the organizer.

"That's more like it," he says, handing over the money -- twice the going rate, and eyeing a room of young lovelies. Finally, an old, haggard hooker comes up to him, and tells him to come with her.

"But," stammers the man, "I want one of the OTHER girls."

"Too bad," says the madam. "Ethyl has senority."
