Show Your AARP Card at the Door

Now this is taking the Early Bird Special just a bit too far.

BERLIN (Reuters) – A brothel in Germany hopes to capitalize on the growing number of retirees by offering them a 50 percent discount for sex in the afternoon.

The “Pascha” in the western city of Cologne has introduced reduced rates for sex sessions for clients aged 66 and above — provided they can prove they are old enough.

“All clients need to do is show us some proof of age,” said a spokesman for the brothel. “We don’t earn as much money, but we’re establishing ourselves across a broader range of age groups,” he added.

Ahaaaaa… someone has been been reading their marketing e-newsletters on targetting a new demographic.

Meanwhile the cost of Viagra in Germany has tripled.  :D

What if God Were One of Us (and Liked to Buy T-Shirts Online?)

Let me preface this by saying I’ve been really sick all week and finally well enough to goof around, without doing anything actually *useful*.

I have an online business and that means, inevitably, the usual attempts at credit card fraud, and the “system” declines though that don’t look kosher. Just yesterday I had a declined order from someone with the last name Christ. So I got curious and looked at all my declined orders from near all-time …

Turns out I’ve had declined orders from Moises (Moses) and Mohammed as well. For some reason this amuses me.

It may be time to lay off the antihistimines.
