Speaking Of Whole Lotta Love

Looking for something to do tonight, I picked up "Entertaining U--North Florida's Most Reliable Source For Movies, Arts and Live Entertainment." Okay, if it says so it must be true. Let's see what we have here...bands, okay...movies, uh huh...some art nonsense, fine...wait a minute--hold the phone, what have we here?

I see a pic of a large woman grabbing her posterior while conga-ing with several other large women and the title "Club Galore: A Size Positive Place. Whoa. Go here for the site.

I will now liberally quote from the short article on this new bar. I'm not making this up (other than my comments):

There is now a big plus to plus-size. Jacksonville's Club Galore now caters to larger women and their friends. I would urge caution when using the word "cater" with this target audience.

The primary staff at Galore are BBWs (Big Beautiful Women), so they know what people of size, especially the women, want and need to build confidence, self esteem and to make the ladies feel beautiful and safe. Hiding the mirrors is a good start.

"We are very fortunate to be able to have Club Galore for our Friday night parties," said Maggie Barrington, founder of Club Galore. "This is a beautifully appointed nightclub with upholstered seating, sofas, tumbled marble-topped coffee tables and toilets the size of love seats.

Specially selected music is played by the Galore resident DJ Aine. The music format will be a little different from what is played at other nightclubs, featuring slower yet upbeat selections...Apparently, the idea of setting up their own cardiac triage was too expensive to play normal dance music.

So if you need to reach me tonight, look no further than 1401 Atlantic Blvd. in Neptune, Florida.
