Technically, you don't have to be a reader to look at nekkid women.
I hate to see fine cultural traditions stomped on by modern political affectation. :)
I always thought the Super Bowl “wardrobe malfunction” was pre-planned because somebody understood that the quality of entertainment being offered was so inferior that it needed sex to help it sell. Other than that, it’s got next to nothing going for it.
They have an archive at the site. Just sayin...

Ron White: Some friends of mine asked me if I wanted to go to a strip club, and I didn’t... want to. ‘Cause, back me up on this, fellas: once you’ve seen one woman naked, you... wanna see the rest of ‘em naked. Wonder why.....
I would have to agree with that...entertainment acts are so inferior these days...you’d be better off washing and waxing your car for entertainment than watching some acts.
**Ron White: Some friends of mine asked me if I wanted to go to a strip club**
I haven’t been to a strip club since 1968 Okinawa. Haven’t been to a bar since 1981.
I got to thinking....”What if I was found dead in here!” Haven’t been back.
I bet if the NY Timrs did his they would sell papers
To who? Old guys who don't know how to use the internet?
Ist das nicht Zitzen und Esel?
Ja, das ist Zitzen und Esel.

Oh, du schöne Zitzen und Arsch!
