Letters to the editor
This letter was in last week's issue of City Life. It cracked me up so much I cut it out to keep. I found the online version so I'll print it here.
The Devil Writes
I have a request for the nightclubs that advertise in your excellent magazine.
A few weeks ago you had a great cover with an incredibly sexy woman in a "naughty nurse" outfit promoting the local nightclubs. I read the article trying to find something fun to do over the Labor Day weekend. I found the full-color ad for Club Rubber and the Pimp N' Ho Ball. I do enjoy the fetish events, so I decided to break out my old leather/vinyl/spike/horn devil's costume. I worked on some modifications for a more club-friendly look (I replaced my 12-inch steer horns and spiked body harness for some leather wings across my shoulders).
I then proceeded to Club Rubber at the Palms Casino, arrived in the parking garage, put on my wings, horns, mask, leather gloves and my suede flogger. I got into the elevator to some peculiar looks from fellow passengers, and hit the main casino floor. I was greeted by a security guard, who shook my hand and said, "Awesome costume, dude."
But when I looked at the line that stretched around the casino, I was the only one dressed in costume. I took a stroll around the place and, sure enough, there was only one other person dressed somewhat kinky, a stunning blond woman in a open-front jumpsuit. Having finished my lap around the casino, I went back to the elevator and bid a hasty retreat to my truck and then home.
So, in the future, could you ask the nightclubs to state in their ads if they want their patrons to dress in costumes or standard club wear? I don't need their help to look like an idiot.

P.S. Any idea if anyone plans to dress in costume for the upcoming Black & White Ball at the Palms?
Editor's note: We haven't decided if we're going to attend the ball as Republican operatives or the R-J editorial board; either way, can we borrow the devil suit?
The visual of that poor guy running around the Palms in a devil costume cracks me the hell up. And the editors comment didn't help!
