Be careful out there, the crackdown is on.
They closed down VIP Salon now, and they also confiscated all their credit card receipts (not sure why anyone would use a charge card anyway).
They are really talking about doing another sweep through town to clean it up, remember the last time they did it they nailed a lot of people.
Just a reminder to be very very careful out there.
In the paper today:
NORTH MYRTLE BEACH - A wooden box on the front porch contained the only tanning bed at a North Myrtle Beach salon that had its business license revoked by City Council members Thursday for operating as a house of prostitution, officials said.
Officer Jerry Miller testified during a special City Council session that he didn't see a single tanning bed during an undercover visit Oct. 20 at VIP Tann Spa, which was licensed as a tanning salon.
Miller said he was led to a back room by a female employee. Once inside, Miller said there was a makeshift bed, condoms, lubricants and linens. There were six similar rooms at the establishment, Miller said.
Employees Chun Young Lee, 44, from California; Eun Ju Kwak, 34; and Jong Soon Back, 43, both of Queens, N.Y.; were arrested and charged with prostitution, according to police reports. Customers Kevin Watson, 37, of Myrtle Beach, and Ohio resident Peter Constantino, 34, also face prostitution-related charges, according to reports.
North Myrtle Beach detectives also confiscated evidence, including business receipts and credit card statements, as well as cash, before shuttering the business.
Bruce Young, who oversees the issuance of business licenses in North Myrtle Beach, said he sent a certified letter to Eric Han, who is listed as the owner of the business, to notify him of the shutdown and Thursday's hearing.
Young said he also phoned Han in Atlanta, where Han lives.
City Attorney Chris Noury said that Han, who was a no-show at Thursday's meeting, does not face any criminal charges but that "his ability to do business has been terminated."
He said the city will continue to crack down on any illegal business operations.
"The city is not going to tolerate any unlawful activity, prostitution or otherwise," Noury said.
The Mayor of Myrtle Beach and Other Encounters
I saw in todays newspaper where the previous mayor of MBeach for the past 8 years was defeated in an election. I don't know whether this is good or bad for our hobby. The mayor-elect could be a bible thumper, or perhaps more liberal, I guess time will tell.
On another note, last Tuesday I was leaving the Masters club around 10 pm when I got into a conversation with two beautiful young things in the parking lot. They had been working inside trying to sell jello shots (tooters) but not making any money. They told me that they were leaving for greener pastures but would accompany me back to my hotel for a mere $ 600 ! I laughed that off, but offered half of it just to see what the answer might be. The price dropped to $400 and I declined that too, but was given a cell number by one of them and invited to follow them to the Penthouse club to negotiate further. When I got there 10 minutes later, they had already left and so I called and was instructed to go to Fantails. I went there and they were nowhere to be found, so I went on my way. The next day I got a call on my cell phone (since they had the number from caller ID) and was invited to meet them that night for another attempt at making a deal. I declined, since I already had a date lined up. I told them that I didn't appreciate being led around and they apologized saying that they had gotten too drunk, etc. and would do better next time. I still have their number, but I will be very careful about making dates with these flakes. They were Masters club quality, but still, you never know what goes through their minds and what their game might really be.
Not often enough "Beach Report"
I finally was able to check out the beach again. Unfortunately it was at Thanksgiving, but I have to count my blessings. I did meet some new lovelies, although not all of them play.
I checked out The Big Show day girls due to a wreck and traffic, not much biting. Never had any luck in the daytime. I went to the NoTell club, a little later, near restaurant row and had an offer of a hj for 150 (15 min) or 300 (30 min). I passed, she did give good couch dances though--Insane Horse prices. I then went to Sea World and I didn't waste much time leaving--when will I learn. Back to the Big Show, where I found a 20 year old ebony spinner and a cutie too, that was fun--daty, bbbj, cfs, standing doggie--she didn't want to let me play with her kitty too much at first, she said she would get overheated and want to do the deed. I made her wishes come true when I got jimmy out of my wallet. I was due for a chocolate fix.
I would like to go to Sea World and not think of the dog pound or a farm, but the last few trips have been a major disappointment. Most of the ladies I know have disseminated to other watering holes. There was cowgirl, but she only teases and jacks. I think of days past when miss Columbia (South America) danced, even if she loves her Latinos, she is a doll. Hopefully she will return and the quality will pick back up.
That's my story this trip and I've changed the names to protect the innocent.
Till my Xmas trip. Merry Ho Ho's, just don’t marry 'em.
