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.

Stale, hot air looms large this
time of year, wreaking havoc
on broke college students
and causing a plethora o’ unbear
able, sleepless nights.

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!
