And the less attractive could be Klingons or Ferengi
Oh, but before we get started, by all means let's pause for a nanosecond to honor Derek Jeter for his great individual achievement in winning the 2006 Hank Aaron Award. It's an honor just to be permitted to acknowledge the honor.
Doug:
Argh, this day is not stahting out too good at all … I got out of bed this morning and I was stumbling around, tripping ovah myself, my mind all fuzzy and muted and I was all 'WTF! I've been possessed by Drew Bledsoe.'
Mike:
Scary. But here's something besides a dose of Tom Brady to shake the stuck in the pocket Drews away … Your rant the other day about ChipSix on BSG got me to thinking.
Doug:
Uh-huh …
Mike:
Look we know that the sci-fi audience is like 95% male. And we can presume from anecdotal evidence that one of the draws to sci-fi for guys is the babalicious factor. Whether it's ChipSix, Inara from Firefly, the nympho Yeoman Rand from STOS, every dude has his fave sci-fi fantasy chick or two.
Doug:
Or a couple dozen.
Mike:
Exactly! So why the frig hasn't anyone capitalized on this obvious mahket demand by creating a sci-fi themed strip club?
Doug:
Dude!
Mike:
But wait I'm just getting stahted. Not just any run of the mill pole joint reeking of cheap perfume and urinal cakes, no, I'm talking a first-class place, say in Vegas, and you hiah on real pros, women who not only have been to strippah school but also are wannabe screen stahlets with a modicum of talent, you see?
Doug:
[makes communicator sound] My frequencies are open.
Mike:
So you audition the prospective talent by asking them to pick a charactah from the pantheon of sci-fi booty and become that persona on stage.
Doug:
Oh My Frickin Lords of Kobol!
Mike:
Yeah, so picture it, here comes, say, Deanna Troi in her funky accent, "I'm sensing you're very attracted to me and desire a lap dance on the observation deck."
Doug:
How much!?!?!
Mike:
"400 quatloos to get on the newcomah!"
Doug:
Build it and we will come.
And the name of the joint 'pleasure model replicants' or 'dorkys'

And there could be vampires from the future also ...

"The 'she's perfect' girl from The Fifth Element ....... mmmmmmmmm"
That would be Mila Jovovich as Leeloo (sp?), and I couldn't agree more.
"The Triple Breasted Whore of Erotica Six from Hitchhikers Guide ......"
I'm decidedly OUT. But to each his/her own...
Have a great weekend everybody.
GREAT JOB THIS WEEK, hb!

I'm over and out for the week, too. Have a great one everybody. Ditto on the work this week, H.B. Stellar stuff.

I heard they had a World Series this week.
Thanks, St. L for rolling over in '04.

Seeing as the stereotypical SFen geek doesn't have many options *other* than going to a strip club, I'd say you have one heluva concept here, hb.
Save some space in the club for the gay females, though. I'd gladly pay extra for a lap dance from the Boomer character, or the Starbuck ... :)
