Well, if you are like us, you got a babysitter and headed out to Club Paradise, a very sexy private swing club out towards Squaw Valley.  Sure, everyone was nice.  The women were hot.  The place was very clean and inviting, but something was wrong.  What was it?   They were all so dammed ultra pretty!  And you, with your bald spot, your big-and-tall pants and extra parts, sure they were nice, but did they want to go downstairs with you?  Did they even flirt with you just a little bit?   So, where do regular people go?  Regular people?  You know what I mean, overweight, average, stretch marks, life's scars, no longer 20 something......REGULAR PEOPLE!
