9. CONTROL FREAK - 1964 to 2016 All my ex’s live at Rachel's That's why I hang my hat in Seminole When Mandi got arrested, James Mulrenin was someone I never heard of. He worked at Dollhouse, I never went there. He was happy and friendly and handsome and everybody liked him. I didn't remember anyone like that. It wasn’t until August of 2017, I was out shopping, and I ran into an old stripper I used to know back in the day. I got to thinking about those days when she was at the strip club, and the angry guy in the wedding outfit, the guy who was taller than the other two guys, the doorman who stalked me in the parking lot and looked blonde in the dark and demanded sex from all the girls. Suddenly I realized GQ Jim, happy guy, the one whom everyone loved, the "Human Ken Doll" who "can have any girl he wants" was the angry well-dressed doorman. That weird Gary Ridgway impersonator got my angel baby Mandi May. She had sex with the most socially-stunted sex addict in Orlando, that creepy Norman Bates in a reverend suit. Which is no surprise really, it's what God made her for. She is like a dog that eats garbage. Now that I know about his prostitution and racketeering conviction at Rachel's, and his battery conviction as James Mulrenin, it makes more sense why the angry well-dressed doorman was such a puritan tyrant. He was a puritan tyrant who also demanded sex with every girl who worked there at the same time. The "Touch And Go Policy" sign had nothing to do with abstract morals or beliefs. It was just a response to their previous legal problems at Rachel's. For whatever reason, they believed they were a target of the law more than the Cabaret Internationale owners had been. And they had to be more careful. Every strip club has girls breaking the rules. It is hard to bring money and pussy together, but stop them 12 inches apart. It is one of the main problems of a strip-club owner, to stop hookers from just setting up shop right inside the club. Sex with customers is one of the main opportunities for lower-level employees to make money. Owners need legal revenue. The Flamingo apartment complex, on Biscayne Bay in South Beach, was known for Eastern European hookers who lived there. They were famous for making the hot tubs dirty. Two or three operated out of Club Madonna straight across the island. I remember the first night in maybe 2007 or 2008 .when one offered to give me a handjob on the lapdance balcony in the back for $50, the price of a lapdance for two songs. At the time it was surprising and very unusual. I saw her sit right in front of the employee who guarded the lapdance balcony and collected $5 for each dance. She had her back to him, blocking his view. He had no idea what she was doing. When she got to the bottom of the stairs, she spent a long time checking her clothes carefully in the mirror. Within a few months there were girls offering me hand jobs all the time at Club Madonna, usually new girls. Though I think it was always in the private- booth balcony in the front, which would have been $400 not $50. I always tried to hang out with the prettiest girl in Club Madonna. Except the few months when it was one of the hookers from the Flamingo. The prettiest hooker was very sweet and told great jokes and volunteered at the dog shelter. But she had the body of a 12-year-old with giant fake boobs. One time I called her and she couldn't talk. She said "Baby, I'm not alone." Disgusting. Another time I called her and asked if she wanted to go see the alligators in the Everglades. She said "You call me Tuesday night, and we will see alligators! " So I moved on to the second- prettiest girl. The second-prettiest girl in Club Madonna was usually a regular Colombian girl. Howard Stern once said she was the prettiest girl at Scores in New York. The first time I talked to the Colombian girl, I was waiting to meet the prettiest girl that night. The prettiest girl was still in the back getting dressed. But I promised the Colombian girl I would come back the next night. It wasn’t until more than a year later in 2009, I finally went back there with nothing else going on, and the Colombian girl was the prettiest girl that night. II-28
