Block vs. Prince George’s County Strip Clubs
Baltimore is at least a 45 minute drive from my home. However, if given the choice and a reasonable amount of time, I will always prefer a trip to the Block in lieu of a trip to one of the many strip clubs that are closer to my residence. To understand the reasons why I [...]

Is It Only a Dollar?
I have a major bone to pick about the phenomenon of strippers asking for tips when they have done absolutely nothing to deserve a tip. I have a good job, but I work hard for my money.

The Block is Hot . . . Almost!
I have frequented the Block for years. I have seen girls come, go, and return, often to different clubs with different names. Life is cyclical, and so too it seems is the Block.
