The Best Of The Waitresses →
We’ll probably never see a CD release of Bruiseology on CD but this best of disc is a good slice of the band. I think the sounds of “Jimmy Tomorrow” and “A Girl’s Gotta Do” have aged better than a lot of other New Wave tracks. (I’m honestly shocked no one has covered the latter.)

Prof's Las Vegas News Blog: Strip club slots →
I get a kick out of the Vegas blog for a lot of reasons - today it’s because of a dead serious use of the phrase “an establishment of “ill repute.”“
Like many, I picture it being spoken by Claude Rains as he strolls the premises, tucking his bribe money in a pocket.
