Women Who Run Topless Car Wash in Liberal Idaho College City Are Evicted From Communal Home

MOSCOW, Idaho (AP) - A topless car wash held to raise rent money was drained when some of the bare-breasted businesswomen were kicked out of their communal home.

City officers served trespassing notices on five of the 11 residents Wednesday, threatening arrest if they returned, Police Chief Dan Weaver said. The residents do not have a lease and not subject to formal eviction procedures, he said.

The action came at the behest of landlords David and Sis Clift, who said the residents were not paying rent.

"This has nothing to do with the toplessness," David Clift said.

But Daisy Mace, the 22-year-old woman leading the carwash, said rent has been paid and they were kicked out because of neighbors' complaints.

Clift said the person at the house responsible for paying him the entire rent bill reported the five tenants had not paid their share for July. He also said complaints have cropped up since news reports of the sudsy spectacle surfaced.

Moscow, home of the University of Idaho, is a liberal anomaly in a staid state. Still, the City Council is trying to enact a law that would prevent future topless car washes. The proposed indecent exposure ordinance would replace one the courts voided three years ago because it was too vague.

The car wash had been open for business about five times in the past month. Patrons were asked only for donations, with most paying from $15 to $20, Mace said.

It is a long drive, but my car is dirty.

Let me be the first to say it: no pictures, please, no pictures!

I wonder if the car wash continually blasted the song "Put 'em on the Glass" by Sir Mixalot.

Wax on, wax off.

What was this place, the YWCA?

I wholeheartedly agree. I went to college in Moscow and I guarantee these women are hairy-legged, bushy-armpitted, dirty-smelly granola-eatin commie-lesbos.

Probably, and if the car wash was bottomless it'll play "Big Butted Woman".

It's good to keep abreast of the news.

The car wash scene in "Cool Hand Luke" still sets the standard.

Two bikini-clad Philippine women wash a car in the conservative and Catholic city of Iloilo in Central Philippines, June 22, 2002. A restaurant owner in the city recently started offering the "Bikini Car Wash" to its costumers for the price of P100 ($2.00) per vehicle. The two women working at the car wash, which operates only from 3pm-6pm each day, earn P400 ($8.00) every days. REUTERS/Leo Solinap

Any legal eagles out there want to tackle this? Seems if the person responsible (the lease signer) paid the rental in full, the 5 who did not pay (the sub-lettors)could only have a complaint for trespass signed by the lease-holder, rather than the landlord. I have made the assumption that the five removed were not on the lease, as the eviction process was not followed in this case.

We've had one of those carwashes in Teterboro, NJ.
When they've just opened it, at lunchtime, the line was an hour long
It was a popular place...
We took a van there for a wash :)

If ya ain't got a lease, they're outta luck.

[Terriergal]

You're probably right. "Daisy MACE?"

[glory]

Aah, Moscow, Idaho. Have a friend who works in one of thier local libraries. Said it's overrun with lesbian feminists and she and the very scant few other heterosexuals are routinely discriminated against in favor of whatever female on female relationship is going on at the time and for not being part of the clique. Interesting place indeed.

In every lease I have signed it says expressly the number and names of people living there. If only one was on the lease, the landlord I assume could kick the others out who were found to be living there. Eviction as far as I understand it only applies to the lessee.

Another "Man bashing women post". Oh, the humanity.

Do you think they can polish my, um, er, surf board?
