Helen's closes after many year run
For those of you who do the QC stoll, you know that Helen's and DoDah are the favorite drinking spots for some of the girls. A week or so ago, Helen died. The bar was immediately shut down.
Saturday I had the opportunity to cruise through the QC's and stopped for a drink at the DoDah. It was wall to wall women. Kind of reminded me of the good old days.

Man awaiting sentencing arrested for solicitation
this guy made the news a few months ago. looks like he has not learned from his mistake. it also appears that a couple of the prostitutes who he approached have enough civic duty to call the police on him. he could have gottne lucky with any of the three he did find. three more than i did when i was in town earlier this month.
a 61-year-old man who was to be sentenced today for attempting to solicit an 11-year-old for sex is charged with trying to pay someone tuesday to find him an **** prostitute.
davenport police arrested marvin at the corner of 2nd and myrtle streets about 1:40 p.m. tuesday.
marvin approached a known prostitute and offered her $50 to find a14-year-old girl to have sex with him, the arrest affidavit signed by officer barry peiffer said.
marvin made inquiries of at least three women, police said. two of the women called police.
when officers arrived on the scene, the two women pointed them to marvin who was talking to a third woman at the time of his arrest.
marvin was being held tuesday night at the scott county jail on a $2,000 bond.
he has a first appearance hearing scheduled for 8:30 a.m. today, the same time he is supposed to be sentenced on a solicitation for prostitution charge from september.
the sept. 12 incident happened a block away from tuesdays incident, near 2nd and warren streets. court records say that marvin was in the area looking for prostitutes when he met jeffrey, 40, of davenport, who was with an 11-year-old girl.
marvin told police that jeffrey attempted to prostitute the 11-year-old for $200. when marvin declined the offer, he said jeffrey beat and robbed him.
records say jeffrey and the girl got into marvin's car and jeffrey hit marvin in the head, face and neck and then stole $150. jeffrey and the girl left marvin in a semi-conscious state and jeffrey took the girl to her mother.
the incident was reported to police as an attempted abduction.
jeffrey was charged with second-degree robbery and using a juvenile to commit a crime.
two weeks earlier, records say marvin had visited davenport seeking young girls to have sex with him.
tuesdays arrest affidavit says that marvin is living in davenport. the sept. 12 report has him living in west point, iowa.
