Lori and Mon Cherie Staying With Me When Their Hotel Burned

There had been a fire at the hotel where the road girls who danced as strippers at the Follie's Burlesk Theater stayed. I was in town permanently for awhile; so I stayed across the street from the Follie's a a rat-hole hotel. But it was cheap and the people working there treated me nice.

I went to the hotel that was on fire. Two of my friends and co-stripper, Lori Lanier and Mon Cherie were there. Lori was from Calgary, Canada. Mon Cherie was a black girl from Detroit, Michigan. They did not have any place to stay; so I told them they could stay with me.

Of course, I only had one bed. But we managed. We were friends - kind fo like a sister relationship. But many "ordinary" people would think the worst because Lori and Mon Cherie were Lovers.

Unlike what most people think, gay people do not try to attack or seduce everyone who is their same sex. All we did was sleep. The only thing that bothered me was the fact that they caked their faces with cucumber cream every night. I hate the smell of cucumbers. I said, "I feel like I'm sleeping with a couple of cucumbers!"

Tony Refusing Money from the Bum

There was this old grey headed Italian guy named Tony who owned a little grocery store on twelfth street in Kansas City, Missouri. It was lined up and attached to the go-go joints. He was always nice to me.

I remember one funny thing he told me. He said a bum came in to buy something and gave him a dollar that was all folded up and stinking. Tony said he could tell he had just got it out of his shoe. He told the bum, "Just take the damned stuff! You don't have to pay me. I don't want your stinking money!" It was more funny to hear Tony say it.

Getting Busted - At the Mercy of the Vice Squad

The first time I ever had trouble with the vice-squad in Kansas City, Missouri made me realize that just because you are not breaking the law does not mean you cannot get arrested. Us strippers would do our jobs within the boundaries of the law; but when the vice-squad decided to bust us, they would find some stupid reason for it.

I was really green back then. The first time this happened I was hollering in the club about how they should not be able to arrest us because we are not breaking the law. My boss, Doris at the Pink Pussy Cat, told Kansas City Kitty, a stripper who showed me the ropes of stripping, to explain it to me. Doris kept going on about how dumb I was. I did not understand her frustration then; but I do now.

If they wanted to bust us, they would make anything up. They would say we had too much butt cheeks showing or a pubic hair or did not have our nipples covered completely with the pastie.

One time in Cleveland, Ohio they arrested the whole show. The boss knew the police were there; so he told the girls to not take anything off. They arrested them anyway. The police said that even though the girls did not take a stitch of clothes ff they did make sexual, suggestive movements.

One time in New York City, New York they busted the show because the girls were showing pubic hair. One girl was shaven. She said, "You can't bust me! I don't have any hair down there. I am shaven!" To no avail and wasted words, they did anyway.

We were at the mercy of the vice-squad. One time in Chicago, Illinois, I got busted. They were driving the ticket man and me to jail. The policeman looked back and said, "Well, you know we're just doing our job". I wanted to say, "Yeh! I know! So are we". But I knew better than to smart off or they would find something else to charge me with.
