My future best man informed me once that my bachelor party would combine two of the manliest events with a twist. Basically we would go into the woods with an ocean of liquor, hunting rifles, and roughly a dozen women-of-the-night. Then, combining elements of hunting and prostitution, things would take off from there. The audio would be recorded and then dubbed over a video of my wedding.

What's up A-CAP?  Where've you been lately?

What's up A-CAP?  Where've you been lately?

I actually work most in the summer months. Between my summer jobs and working on getting published in economics journals, I haven't had much time. But when this strip sparked the conversation between me and my future best man I couldn't resist but to post.

I can see this idea working splendidly, provided nobody ever discovers the video and/or bodies.

Hunting/Prostitution Mash Up: the totally nightmarish version

Wow.  That was horrifying.  Here's a journalistic write-up.  Stacey and I went on vacation in Vancouver in the summer of 1999.  We didn't hang out in the Downtown Eastside area, although we skirted around it on some of our waterfront walks.  I do remember being surprised at how many, many homeless people there were in the city, in general.  Lots of rather young people - late teens and 20's.  The homeless in SFO tend to be in their 40's & 50's.  Maybe they move south as they get older to avoid bad winters.

I accidentally walked right in to a park where people were just sitting around shooting heroin when I was in the area.  Our tourist book didn't bother to mention that Chinatown had degraded into the poorest zip code in North America about 15 years before we got there.

I would hope that, if/when I get married, my friends would know that I would hate something like this.

But maybe that's not true. no strippers, though. they terrify me.

I got picked up by a stripper once when I was in high school.

The fully-nude places in my hometown don't serve booze, so they're a magnet for 18-year-olds who can't get into regular bars.  I went with some friends to a place called Lisa's Cabaret where my friend Geoff started chatting up a lady while I was picking up our round of Red Bull.  The stripper sat down in my seat and when I returned I called her out on it.  She patted her knees and told me to hop on, which I did (because I was 18 and she was a very pretty woman wearing nearly nothing).

After about ten seconds of amused chuckles, she decided to stand up.  She reached under one of my arms and under my knees as she stood, so I was basically being cradled by this small woman for a second until it got mutually uncomfortable and we let go of each other.

I guess it was more "lifted" than "picked up," but that doesn't sound as interesting as a conversation starter.

Pay attention!

Vancouver's Chinatown is also quite famous.  Dr Sun Yat-sen did a fair bit of fund-raising for the revolution that overthrew the Qing dynasty there.  A garden was dedicated to him in downtown Vancouver in 1986.
