The story that Mike was posting was expressing some objections by Bush on .XXX for its fear of creating a red light district.

Mexico has some strict laws about porn (despite the hanky-panky that goes on in TJ).. i believe it is illegal to shoot porn in mexico.

maybe i am looking at this too analytical, but for satire to have its full effectiveness, it does need to convey the message at the end that drives things home once the laughter has subsided, and after reading your post and laffing, and the laughter subsiding, i'm confused.


Fight the Huh?
sorry, brandon -- i guess you were lookin' for the message to resolve clearly to either "yay" or "nay" -- it doesn't and i don't.

at this hour of night, i'm afraid all i hear in this dialogue is absurdity, hence my absurdist echo -- the moral of my story (if there is one) is nature abhors a vaccum -- if somebody moves out, somebody else is gonna move in. mexico is as likely a place for porn to find a happy home as .XXX is.
