Adult nightclubs: forgotten artform Abts Design editor hen the temperature is still high after nightfall, the possibility of sleeping is nonexistent ^_ and sidewalks m have been rolled up for se curity, what is m one to do? J There are a few late-night options, including the local bar, karaoke or sit ting in front of the grocer’s frozen food section in your underwear. Often times forgotten, though, are the adult nightclubs — otherwise known as strip clubs. No matter the quality of the es tablishment, strip clubs are always air-conditioned and happy to have a patron. They offer a cool setting, fine beverages from soda to hard liquor, and engaging entertainment. Oregon is unique in that nude dancing is guaranteed under the state constitution as “freedom of expression. ” In the Eugene-Spring field area alone, there are at least 10 such establishments. Basic etiquette includes two simple rules: 1) Never, under any circumstance, touch the dancer. Turn to Abts, page 8 Keep cool; Be a tnallrat Stale, hot air looms large this time of year, wreaking havoc on broke college students and causing a plethora o’ unbear able, sleepless nights. And while it’s probably not pos sible to beat the evening heat, kids Schmidt Sports editor on a budget need to look no further than their sur roundings to milk a free day of summer’s worst enemy — air condi tioning. Scorching afternoons can be a thing of the past, friend. A “nip ply” paradise awaits on the “other side of the tracks,” in Springfield’s most fa mous landmark, the Gateway Mall. And what a gateway it is. Start the day off around llish with a cheap flick. With an early bird special of $1 per show, who cares if the only choices star the likes of Bow Wow, Chris Rock, John Leguizamo and an animated horse? It’s only a buck! After taking in what should, no doubt, be Oscar-winning perform ances — and who knows, maybe even a Grammy in the category of “13-year-old thuggish-ruggish crap-rap” for the artist formerly known as Lai’ — head over to Gate way’s four-star selection of cafes, bistros and delicatessens. Yeah, right. But with choices like Carl’s Jr., Sbarro and Sub way, an unoriginal meal of processed food awaits! After munching on what will soon become a stomach bomb, nothing hits home like a “speed walk” around the mall. Start out in the food court and hug the perimeter of the halls ’til a full cir cle is made. Make sure to begin on the left side, however. Walking full-speed on a direct-path for lo cal, cowboy-clad customers really gets the heart racing. The real challenge, of course, is keeping a running tally on how many angry patrons mistake you for their second-cousin’s-baby’s sister’s-mother who is pregnant, “sum-uma-bitch. ” What trip to the mall would be complete without some shop ping? With hot stores like Express — men’s and women’s, oh goody!
