Spot the Stripper!
A fun game to play in Las Vegas is "Spot the Stripper". Outside of an actual strip club, that is.
Hubby and I were strolling through Walmart on a post-movie shopping trip when we walked past a very thin, hot young woman wearing sweats and carrying a broom out of the cleaning products aisle. I leaned over towards Hubby and murmured in his ear, "Stripper's gotta clean." He cracked up because that's exactly what she was.
Walmart is a great location for playing Spot the Stripper. They're the hot girls dressed way way down, usually in sweats. 75% of the time there's a baby or toddler in the cart despite the girls looking way too thin to be new mothers. Snorting cocaine must be the best post-partum fitness plan ever!
Hubby and I are very good at this game because the strippers tend to shop at the same times we do: the middle of the night when hardly anyone else is in there, thus making them even easier to spot.
In other stripper news, Las Vegas Weekly has a new blog by a stripper/UNLV senior: Stripped. So far it's entertaining reading.
Aaaahhhhh, I thought from the title that you were going to link to an online game with pictures on "Spot the Stripper" like the online game about boobs "real or not" a few years back.
I am so disappointed. ;)

I think I need to visit (or move to) Las Vegas... :)

You should, David. There are a ton of women here who are your "type".

Thanks for remembering my type, Jacqui. :)
I'd seriously come by and visit, but LV's low on the list due to the hot temperatures and lack of federally subsidized rail transit for me to visit... :)
Speaking of that, I need to add your blog back to my blogroll...

Well it is hot and you'd have to have a car. But very few people here are educated so your lack of a college degree wouldn't hurt you in the job market, if you are willing to work in service. People in tipped positions make $50k+ a year, easy. However, the male:female ratio here isn't in your favor (but if you decided to enroll in college, there are lots more women there then men).

Actually, my previous comments were leaning towards the idea of visiting Las Vegas. Since I'm a railfan, Las Vegas ranks at the bottom when compared to say Portland or San Diego, but I'll probably visit at some point. Remember, you're talking to somebody who spent nearly three days riding trains around the Bay Area...*
It's unlikely that I would move to LV since it's miles away from friends and family, salt water beaches, and the God's frozen tears. Besides, moving to a place with water supply issues and a ultra-low density layout doesn't seem smart given the current trend of oil prices...
*I am also a roadgeek too...

Well, as Megan said, "water flows towards money" so Las Vegas will never run out. :)

That blog, clearly fake, fake, fake. Too much moralizing (cocaine not fun!), too much grandiose shock-jocking (I snorted coke with strange men and got drunk off my ass while pregnant! Don't worry, I aborted the fetus!), too much pandering to silly male fantasies about what strippers are like (I'm 22 years old! I was awkward and geeky as a teen!).
As you very aptly point out, the typical stripper has at least one kid to support. And I'll bet she's a lot older than 22, although she might not admit to it.

My friend Sarah knows the author. It's really by a stripper/UNLV student. The details might be lies, though.

LOL... I just showed Hubby bits of her blog. His response: "That's the typical UNLV student, huh? I can't wait until I start going there. Hello, hookers!"
