We're Open, If You Know What We Mean

We just wanted to follow up and let you know that we dropped by the grand opening of the Pleasure Chest on Friday night. We were there for an hour and saw no signs of a protest or neighborhood freakout. We really had to wonder -- how much of an eyesore did the neighbors think it would be when it was right next door to a liquor store? Booze = good, sex = bad? Regardless, we picked up some fishnets, loved the toolbox storage for the vibrators and dildos, and enjoyed perusing the store's mix of high-end and predictable goodies.
