Not the kind in a can (ewe)...

My ISP blocks most of the SPAM that comes my way. The files get "tossed" into a folder that I can check and retrieve mistakenly trashed files from. I delete the folder a couple of times a day. Typically there are 20 - 30 files in the folder at any given time. I cleared it this morning. I just checked it... 115 files someone's been busy. I would say about 35 were offers to send me millions of dollars.

Yeah the building is still on Upper Greenville and 99.9999% of the people that go by there on a daily basis have no clue of it's history- always thought that a good MENS ESTABLISHMENT should move into it- I think it is either a mexican restraunt or empty right now.

Thats it Scott/ Are you speaking from experiance? LOL......
Everyone in LAGrange knew where it was. 35 years ago a couple of friends and myself, pulled into a gas station there. I rolled down the window and said "Say, can you tell me where......." and before I could finish he said "Sure, go down the raod 3/4 mile, turn left at the bridge onto a gravel road. Just follow that road till you get there"
Boy, were we suprised at all the cars in the parking lot. But not nearly as suprised as when we went inside, and it wasnt the restraunt we were looking for.... <eg>

Sorry, but I wasn't in Texas while the place was still open and my tastes run more towards strip clubs rather then brothels (not that there's anything wrong with that). I have visited my fair share of brass pole establishments, enough so to consider myself an 'expert'.

And LaGrange was not a brothel it was a down to earth WHOREHOUSE!

Man I bet if you got any sports team from 1930-1970 from UT or A+M together they would all have their stories of the Chicken Ranch!
