  • Uh, in case you haven't heard, they don't care about local ordinances. The club snickers at the thought of the township actually enforcing them.

  • it's clear already that the strip club is bad for the business district. less than a year and already its closest neighbor is closing up shop and moving away.

    no one has suffered more that EFO in this debacle. didn't have to happen that way. i think its safe to assume that EFO is moving out of WB TWp all together.

    decent businesses suffer when we welcome this kind of riff-raff into our otherwise decent community.

  • one more thing.

    i have waited literally decades to see our area regain the kind of standing it once had.

    no sooner do we turn culm banks into thriviing businesses than this despicable element moves in and louses the whole thing up.

    its absolutely disgusting.

  • I LOVE the fact that you're still at this.

    I totally thought this would fade away after a few weeks last April. I was at the prayer meeting and I pray regularly for the owners/employees/patrons, just as we did that night.

    It's very telling to see how many commenters come right out and slam Jesus Christ or Christianity in general. Most of your posts don't even talk about that, but I find it revealing to know what the club folk think of our Lord.

    Anyway, keep doing what you're doing. Persevere!

  • I believe in Jesus Christ. Christianity is good. I have a problem with the Christians who are so judgemental and throw stones at others. One of those Christians is Mr. Family and many of his supporters. Work on your own faults. If the owners, strippers and patrons of the Gentlemen's Club are sinful, then let God tend to it. God loves them as much as he loves you.

  • What ordinances are teh specificially breaking? That is really a great place to live if the Twp knows that they are breaking them and still lets them do it. just shows what kind of people actually live in WB-Twp to have the local govt betray them and let people do what the want to do. Is that not anarchy by the local govt? If there is no oversight? Can I do anything I want in that skanky place and get away with it? I also wonder how long the pictures will last this time around.

  • "Pictures of public activity surrounding the club will be posted until such time as Gentlemen's Club 10 voluntarily obeys local ordinances."

    This is a false statement by you. You know full well if they changed their rules, you would not stop what you are trying to do. And Second, how woudl you know if they did change? Are you going there now to see for yourself?

    And have you foregotten again about the grandfather law in PA? Seems you are still in denial about that.

  • what a great picture! I bet that will scare off a lot of people!

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 6:11 AM  

  • I am actually against the club, but I would like to make two comments..... # 1) What a horrible picture..... What does it show ? It could have been taken along any street in the city at night. It shows a building with lights glowing in the dark. It shows "nothing" about the club, and does "nothing to embarass anyone whose cars might have been parked there. Why not show some pictures with some REAL detail on them for a change. #2) Has anyone considered the FACT that EFO is closing because they are not (and probably never have been) a good business that made any serious money ? My wife and I dealt with them one time a few years ago, and we swore at that time that we would NEVER shop there again. Their service was terrible and their product quality wasn't much better. And before anyone jumps to any conclusion, we were purchasing a king-size headboard valued at over $1000, so we weren't looking for junk, but we were treated like second class citizens, and the whole experience made me feel like we were dealing with a sleazy used-car dealer. So perhaps EFO is closing because this lack of customer loyalty and poor quality merchandise is catching up with them. If the club were to blame, they would have closed months ago. The argument that has been used on this website about people feeling "strange" or "spooky" driving by there or going into their EFO's parking lot because they have to pass by the G-Club is rediculous also..... Do these same people feel the same way walking through the mall with Victoria's Secret store showcasing nighties and walking by Spencer's Gifts because they sell vibrators inside. I bet they haven't been "spooked" by that all, have they ??? Like I said when I started this rant, I am personally against the club, and have never gone and never will, BUT some of you people are getting carried away with this whole thing. Have you ever thought that if you just lay low.... keep quiet about it.... and stop giving them all this attention..... that they might just self-implode and go away on their own ??? In other words, you might be doing them a favor by keeping the spotlight turned on them and their sleazy business. You are actually helping their business, not hurting it. Not to mention all the stress and personal aggravation that you are causing yourselves. That is probably what happened with EFO... enough people got disgusted with them and their poor service and stopped buying from them. Sooner or later, that will catch up with a business and they will close.

  • wes, I hear you on all points, and efo's actions speaks louder than words.
    kathi, I'm sure you really do know Good always perserveres, and Good ALWAYS truimphs over evil through the power of Jesus Christ, therefore, the reason why this campaign has not faded and will exist in one form or another until this evil is defeated. I'm positive your prayers and everyone else's are being heard and answered in God's way, in His time. God bless you!

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 8:14 AM  

  • to 12:49a, true belief in Jesus Christ means to clearly know and follow through with His teachings. Seemingly you are not fully aware of this since you have expressed a surface view on judgement and throwing stones. Christ's last command to us while He was still on earth was (is): "Love one another as I have loved you." By following Christ with that commandment, that means for us to imitate His works, among them, correcting the faults of others with love as He did so that no one will be lost to the evil one. Yes, of course, to correct our own faults primarily.
    I ask you: was Jesus Christ judgemental and throwing stones because He was correcting the faults of others?
    If we are open to Him, God works through us so that we may be inspired to tend to the wrong-doings of others, ie, God is tending to them through those of us who are open to Him. Thus, making others aware of their mal-behavior who otherwise would not be aware of it and permanently fall into the hands of the evil one.

  • Today's pic was not posted for any specific purpose other than to have it relate as a caption for Mr. Family's post.
    6:34am, you missed the point with the comments referring to the club's external eerieness. It can't be accused of looking esthetically pleasant and complimentry in an otherwise inviting business and family-oriented surrounding. Surely V.S. garments and S.G's fall into another category.
    By not having this w/s and keeping quiet about the club, it would give the club free, unexposed reign about their activities. The public must be kept informed of their continued sleazy activities in order to be armed and prepared with knowledge of the slime that is infiltrating into the community. We don't want to have to deal with bad circumstances once they have gotten way out of control and then complain afterwards that we had no knowledge. We need to take preventative measures.

  • It is 100% legal to take photos from a public road. This picture was taken on Mundy Street, facing the club.

    By Blogger Mr. Family, at 11:57 AM  

  • Interesting. I was under the impression that these girls were pretty much force to dance due to issues within their lives. Now they are turning tricks? Doing drugs? I guess that if they are turning tricks they are getting money in return. and obviously knowing what they are doing. Drugs, well that is just a waste since it leaves the system. and is often a short period. But the girls who seem to be protrayed on this blog as the innocent ones might not be all that innocent.

    Yes the pictures are legal. It is about time that they came back. Plain and simple 100 per'cent.

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 4:44 PM  

  • interesting- but if mr family did not take the pictures -or wasn't there when the pictures were taken
    how does he know with absolute certainty they were taken from mundy street
    and not say private property like u-haul where pic takers were asked to leave by the owner.

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 6:13 AM  

  • i believe you ran into legal issues with your pictures in the past hence a three month absense, missing from you latest pic
    is any closeup of cars.

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 6:38 AM  

  • 1:45 says, "Drugs, well that is just a waste since it(sic) leaves the system." It's a total waste when anyone OD's and a waste of the lives of addicts who commit other crimes, including prostitution and drug dealing, to support their habits. None of the girls who rub their naked bodies all over dirty old men for tips are "all that innocent", but they all deserve better than the scumbags who profit from exploiting, objectifying and degrading them in the name of "entertainment".

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 9:11 AM  

  • mr family is correct about the legality of taking pictures from the street- but what you cannot do is use a zoon lense or other tecnology to make objects visible that are not visible to the naked eye.

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 9:17 AM  

  • And nowwwww, ladies and gentlemen, it's time to play an updated version of that popular '50/60's tv game show: "To Tell the Truth"

    Rules and objective of the game:
    Opposing sides will be given a statement to reply "True" or "False" only. The audience will decide who is telling the truth.
    Ready? Begin.....

    Statement #1: Strip clubs are known for prostitution, drugs, crime, and property de-valuations.
    Anti-Club: True
    Pro-Club: False. Hocus-Pocus College reported strip clubs have not caused any problems in the barren regions of the Artic and Antartic.

    Statement #2: Babies are conceived through the act of making love.
    Anti-Club: True.
    Pro-Club: False. Googly-goo-goo studies prove 75% of babies are delivered by the stork. 25% are found under cabbage leaves.

    Statement #3: Mr. Family and his website are dedicated to keeping NEPA family-friendly, prioritizing the bond of the family structure, healthy-minded youths, and respectably thriving communities, ala, businesses.
    Anti-Club: True
    Pro-Club: That's a lie!

    Statement #4: Sal is dedicated to keeping NEPA community and family-corrupted, prioritizing youth involvement in his strip club, bondage activities for men, and degrading stripping employment for women.
    Anti-Club: True.
    Pro-Club: What's wrong with that? Millions of people are corrupted.

    Audience, you decide who is telling the truth.

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 12:19 PM  

  • Questions 9:17A, doesn't the zoom lens only magnify what is already visible to the naked eye?
    You're partially correct. No one can possibly take a picture with a zoom lens to make objects visible that are not already visible to the naked eye at any distance. Tech. would have to develop a camera lens that is penetrable. On a different tech. level, however, medical diagnostic and airport x-ray machines show penetrable images that are not visble to the naked eye.
    I can understand it not being legal to take a picture with a zoom lens through a window of someone who is in their bedroom and any other kind of invasion of internal privacy, but all that's outside and not taking picures on private property is fair game, isn't it?
    To 6:13A, and To 6:38A, do you have back-up for your imaginative theories or are you reaching in desperation? Be comforted knowing Mr. Family follows his legal advisors.

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 1:02 PM  

  • Bonus statement:
    Statement #5: The earth revolves on its axis.
    Anti-Club: True
    Pro-Club: False. The earth revolves around pornography.

    Audience, time to cast your ballots.

  • What does this picture do? Nothing. Mr. Family, you are wasting your time. You can't stop the Gentlemen's Club from doing business. If all of the Mr. Family supporters think that he will cause the club the close, you are being foolish. Do something productive with your time. Bake some cookies for your friends. Take your significant other to a movie. Spend time with your kids. Go build a snowman. Eat a hamburger. Hold down your kid and fart on his head. Have fun.

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 9:15 PM  

  • Well former dancer, it has never been a secret of life to the general public who can admit it. Tell that big secret to the scum club (and their non-participating supporters) who swears up and down none of their dancers do prostitution or drugs.

  • The other evening was the first time I obtained a copy of the Weekender. Much to my surprise, I have to admit it gave me more of an eye-opener in regard to the personal want ads with their putrid requests for sex partners and performances. From what we are told in these blogs, we are not to believe everything that we read. I suppose I will have to think of the ads as simply distasteful jokes or mis-prints. "Ironically," the ads are placed in a section nearest to strip club ads and our infamous gclub. I guess I'm supposed to think it was accidental and gclub is outraged to have such hideous ads preceding their innocent ad.

    Heads up to the W-B TWP. POLICE DEPT.
    The BYOB gclub is adversting them giving free beer on free beer night.

    Wondering if that is legal to include the under 21 patrons at an establishment that claims it has been legally determined the minimum admission age is 18.

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 8:12 AM  

  • the same amemdment/constitution that allows mr family to take pictures and allows anonymous free speech allows
    persons to dance in the nude for a living- be that immoral or not the constitution doesn't care.

    and to 102- theparking lot of the club is private property not public property
    as you claim- people who park there have the right to a degree of privacy-
    if joe blow parks there and has car photographed with a zoom lense- it is an invasion of privacy- why do think the pics of the closeup of cars stopped?
    notice there are certain questions that are not answered?

  • Something for area folks to think about. Did it occur to you that when EFO vacates the premises, the law rightfully won't allow any child-related institution or business to locate there due to the proximity of stripclub10? Children have to be protectd by adults from "adults" at that unnecessary "adult" establishment. The building will not be available for any vital pediatric clinic, day-care center, kindergarten, clothing, toy stores, etc. Amazing how the law protects the sex-crazed primarily, while it forfeits childrens' rights to a potential medical establishment, an early education facility, or an easily accessible day-care necessary for working moms and dads who particularly have to pass that way on to their decent jobs. Additional point, a secondary negative effect of strip clubs.

    I can tell by your response of how prejudice you are. Do you enjoy prejudging people? How Godly of you. For your information, I have never been to the Gentlemen's Club. I have not been to a strip club in over 10 years. Also, from your response, you couldn't see the humor in my statement. The part about holding your kid down and farting on his head is a JOKE. As far as getting lost, I will go anywhere I wish. The last time I checked, America is a free country. Would you like to meet me and tell me to get lost to may face?

You'd hide behind a mask like you quickly hid behind your pathetic excuse for sick humor, your feeble assumptions, and your BIG crutch with the religious aspect.

Take for example the questions asked of 6:13 and 6:38 a.m,'s who suggested a concocted story, and who never offered support for "his" wild claim about Mr. Family's legal issues. But you know, if we were to tally up all the unanswered questions on this forum, the pro'ers and their supporters had long been skyrocketed off the score sheet a week ago. Interesting idea, though, that you prompted.

    You assumed that I go to the Gentlemen's Club. I've never been there. You obviously like to pre-judge people. Maybe that is something that you can work on. Hate will get you nowhere. The fact is: the Gentlemen's Club has every legal right to do business there. Stop getting your hopes up that Mr. Family will cause the club to close. He does not have that power. Now stop your sissy whining and go out and have some fun.

  • UNBELIEVABLE...KNOTTY NIGHTS...BONDAGE NIGHT...A LOCAL PUBLICATION WITH "THE SEX ISSUE" THAT PROMOTES DEGRADING FEMALES ON THESE BONDAGE NIGHTS....
    QUESTION-WHERE DOES THE RESPONSIBILITY FALL FOR PROMOTING THESE THINGS????

    ANSWER- RIGHT ON THE SHOULDERS OF THE EDITOR OF THE TIME LEADER (PARENT COMPANY OF THE WEEKENDER) Richard L. Connor, who is editor and publisher of The Times Leader (He can be reached at rconnor@timesleader.com), AND WEEKENDER OUT OF CONTROL PARTY GIRL, GENERAL MANAGER RACHAEL A. PUGH(rpugh@theweekender.com , WHO PROMOTES THIS DEGRADING BEHAVIOR OF BONDAGE AND SUCH THROUGH THE PUBLICATION THEY CONTROL.
    THAT IS RIGHT CONNOR AND PUGH CAN REFUSE TO PROMOTE THE DEGRADING EVENTS AND HAVING THE COVER OF THEIR PUBLICATION THAT OUR CHILDREN SEE IN STORES AND ON THE INTERNET PROMOTING SEX, BY TAKING RESPONSIBILITY THAT THEY OWE SOCIETY BY HOLDING THE POSITIONS THEY HOLD.
    IS THIS WHAT CONNOR CAME OUT OF RETIREMENT TO BE PART OF? YOU THINK YOU DID VALLEY RESIDENTS A FAVOR BY BUYING THE TIMES LEADER SO IT IS NOT A ONE TOWN NEWSPAPER AND THEN HE ALLOW IMMORAL ADVERTISING AND PICTURES TO BE PUBLISHED OF GIRLS BEING SPANKED WITH A PADDLE IN THE WEEKENDER AND ON THE INTERNET, WHERE OUR CHILDREN CAN ACCESS THEM BY A LINK FROM THE TIME LEADER'S WEB SITE.
    THEY EVEN HAVE A WEEKENDER "INTERN" WRITING A ARTICLE ABOUT BEING KNOTTY , WHICH IS AMAZING IF THIS INTERN IS AT THE PAPER GETTING CREDITS FOR SCHOOL WHICH IS WHAT I BELIEVE THAT IS WHAT "INTERNS" DO...MR. CONNER WAKE UP AND IF THIS IS WHAT YOU BRING TO THE WYOMING VALLEY MAYBE YOU SHOULD CONSIDER TO PLEASE GO BACK INTO RETIREMENT...
