The Globe reports the death of Louis DiBella, who won a groundbreaking Supreme Judicial Court decision letting him hire women to dance naked in cages at his Peabody club - named for his other business selling bananas.
"During an uncommonly candid court hearing in January 1978, Garrity reviewed a recording of a Golden Banana stripper’s 1950s-style “Teen Angel” show and questioned her about the artistic need to remove her panties. She responded: “Well, your honor, it’s really strange. Guys can’t use their imagination. They don’t want to see the act if you don’t take it off.”"

Every time I hear the name
Every time I hear the name Golden Banana I think gay strip joint. Missed a golden opportunity there.

You make sound like there's
something wrong with dancing naked inside a cage.
The cage isn't to keep her in...

In this situation...
is it more respectful to put the flag at half-mast or full-mast?
Staff
1) Flags are at half-staff; sails are at half-mast.
2) "Staff" is much funnier in this context regardless.
