THE LETTER OF THE LAW

Our pal Stephen Saban at World of Wonder offers the following reports. (With sources.)

"Fact: There are no strip clubs in Tallahassee. So plan your vacation accordingly. But far raunchier than a strip club is this strip club-forbidding Part II Chapter 12 Article V Division 2 Section 12-139 (3) of the Tallahassee Code of Ordinances, which stipulates that "No person or entity maintaining, owning, or operating an establishment dealing in alcoholic beverages shall encourage, allow or permit any person to appear nude or to expose to public view his or her genitals, pubic area, vulva, anus, or any portion of the buttocks or simulation thereof. This section shall be violated if any portion of the buttocks is visible from any vantage point."

I'm not at all surprised. I've lived in this state for six years now, and when I hear things like this I just yawn and mumble, "Welcome to Florida."

At least NORTH Florida; the south is a whole different ballgame.
