Glad the alien idea gave you a laugh. Hey, they could make the brothel buildings in the shape of flying saucers–sort of retro Route 66 architecture. And the working girls could wear metallic mini-skirts with clip-on antennae. And they could use glow in the dark condoms.

I believe you have much more than one opinion article in you and I hope you find that sponsor.

This could be a series on the cable channels with you reporting each week from a different brothel and reporting on the escort business in Las Vegas and other cities, and the sex worker industry as a whole. Maybe HBO, MTV, Showtime or the 101 Network would be interested in your show. They could run it right after Trailer Park Boys. Or the Travel Channel. Instead of Bridgette Marquardt’s Beaches, it could be titled Cali’s Bitches…

Like it or not, you have started something here and you may well be destined to be the expert authority on sex workers and their industry–a carmudgeon-at-large, if you will. Ever hear of Xaviera Hollander–the Happy Hooker, and how she cashed in on her experience?

Ooh and I’d like to see myself as a reporter but only for an opinion article. That would be interesting if I could find a sponsor so it could be published… any takers!?

Actually… Lincoln county is one of a couple of counties that had allowed prostitution to be legalized only to overturn it in the late 70′s and is now illegal to operate a brothel there. I don’t understand that since it’s the only other county bordering the north of Clark county so too bad for them to drum up some extra business and money from fees. I like the alien idea lol. Don’t think that will be too big of a hit though.

Yea I wish I had the time and man-power to conduct my own poll. Sit outside of the grocery stores in every sort of neighborhood with every demographic and then see.

“…the girls could all dress up as extraterrestials…” A twist on, out looking for something strange?

It’s not just rural Nevada that communities derive a great deal of revenue off sex businesses. I lived in St. Louis for a number of years and a few cities on the ‘east side,’ southwestern Illinois actually, received 25-30% of the the cities budget from licensing fees and property taxes of the strip clubs and saunas that are located there. Also the clubs are among the largest fund raisers for local charities. Needless to say the clubs are lightly policed and in some it is not difficult to receive a discreet HJ or BJ and in most arranging a “date” is at the willingness of the dancer.

Don’t let an unscientific, obviously biased and bought-off poll make you think the average working stiff in Las Vegas wouldn’t appreciate the convenience of getting laid locally. And these average Joes are plentiful and they do vote, they just need galvanizing. Big business ( the gaming industry ) doesn’t like sharing their take with anybody.

Some enterprising entrepreneur ought to incorporate their own township just over the county line, but it takes utilities–electricity, water, sewer, etc. to do any development and the Mohave Desert is a real bitch when it comes to water. Pahrump isn’t far from Death Valley. I remember visiting the Grand Canyon West Ranch in 2007 with my girlfriend and one of the workers there related that their small town near the rim had to have water trucked in, even though they were close to Hoover Dam.
Has anyone ever considered opening a brothel in nearby Lincoln County to the north? It might be a long drive to Rachel, but the girls could all dress up as extraterrestials since this is near the original Area 51. Too bad someone hasn’t put a floating Mississippi river boat brothel on Lake Mead ( illegal as hell but what fun )!

I am surprised nobody has tapped you yet as a freelance reporter. You are getting real good at this. Your latest plan to cover and report on the brothels seem to be most daunting. Not only does it cover a lot of territory to hit all the stops but will also cost a lot of time and money. Have you attempted to get a local publisher sponsor your endeavour? I am sure some business out there must be interested in what you are attempting to do. Even the brothels should be interested in getting coverage and the resulting advertising and business that will result. I don’t believe there is a prior comprehensive report on Nevada brothels like you are proposing to accomplish. Good Luck.
