Exotic Magazine has finally triumphed and kicked all of our competitors’ asses! For perhaps one or maybe two months, Exotic will be the only industry magazine in town (then, inevitably, some retarded imitator will crop up and set new industry lows, but that’s life). To this effect we are throwing ourselves a HUGE FUCKIN’ PARTY. Get in on the debauchery at Dante’s on Sunday, August 14th, during EXOTIC’S 12th ANNIVERSARY BASH. Fabulous burlesquer Lucy Fur will be performing at Sinferno for THE LAST TIME, so don’t miss it!

In other news.... Rare dwarf cattle were married in a traditional Thai ceremony last month. If that doesn’t threaten the sanctity of marriage we don’t know what does. Exotic recommends that the Bush administration obliterate the country (but for the love of God save the whores in Bangkok!).

BBQ IS ON!

Strip clubs all over town are featuring a staggering array of barbecued meat, naked flesh and swimming pools for the entire month of August. Bring all of your appetites!
* 8/17 — The grill is on at Dream On Saloon. Enjoy the flesh fest on their newly opened outdoor patio! Or, if you’re downtown, head to the Boom Boom Room for its First Annual Bikini Bash.
* 8/20 — Club Cabos lights the coals for its Booty-Q Party, with great barbecue (and booty) specials all day. Work off the extra calories at Dolphin II’s Summer Beach Party III, featuring swimming pool stages inside and out, FREE BBQ and prize giveaways!
* 8/25 — The party is at Jody’s with the possibly dangerous double bill of an All-You-Can-Eat BBQ and Pool Party. And don’t miss what may be the LAST Bikini Car Wash of the season on August 12th, also at Jody’s!
Though this summer seemed awful slow in starting, the folks at Wildcats are already celebrating the end of it. Also on 8/25, the End of the Summer Hawaiian Bikini Party will feature a wet t-shirt contest for ladies and a hula-hoop contest for guys.
* Tommy’s 3 is featuring $2.99 barbecue every Sunday from noon - 6pm ALL MONTH LONG.

LIQUOR IN THE FRONT, POKER IN THE REAR

Wildcats hosts a Texas Hold’em tourney every Sunday at 7:30. Sign up early; no cost to enter.

Northwest Poker League will convene at Tommy’s III on August 7th for a free, no-limit Texas Hold’em Tournament.

NEW LATIN STRIP CLUB IS ¡MUY CALIENTE!

Finally, a very warm welcome to Gata Salvaje, an all-Latin strip club at 633 SE Powell Blvd. (formerly Boom Boom East, Club Coco II, etc.). In addition to foxy naked chicks and hot music, Gata Salvaje boasts the sexxxiest staff in town, all rockin’ white short shorts! Hot!
