“Strip Your Mind, The Rest Will Follow”
One morning, I woke up with the line, “Strip your mind, the rest will follow” in my head. I’d had some very disturbing dreams the night before, most memorably one about a powder-skinned, gray-haired Scandinavian scientist who was in charge of this South American concentration camp for doing cruel experiments on people, preventing kids from going to the bathroom until they burst and stuff like that. I remember watching this parade of human horrors in the camp. And then somehow a strip club eventually figured into this.
Anyway, that’s neither here nor there. “Strip your mind, and the rest will follow” would look nice on a strip club marquee. I’m just afaid it’s too similar to “Leave your inhibitions at the door,” from Showgirls.
I mean, what do I care? I know for a fact that in my life I’ll never start a strip club, or even manage one. Sad, sure, that there’s something in this small world that I’ll never do, but it doesn’t seem like too big a deal.
