When I read that article all I could think about was how great it is to have a swingers club like that so close to home in Illinois. Then I realized there is a Des Moines, WA and my dreams were shattered.

Dan, there's no outrage because this is a sex club for full figured people. The straight-only marriage people only care about the culturally hot people. Big girls don't count

Silly Dan! As I'm sure the SFSSIM would be the first to tell you (or maybe third or fifth - hey, they're busy!), straight, married, childless, polyamorous, overweight folks aren't a threat to the Sanctity Of Marriage (tm), 'cause you know - they're STRAIGHT!

It is only homosexual, childless, monogamous, unmarried couples of any size that are a threat to the SOM(tm), because, well, because they're GAY! And The Great, Good, All-Seeing, All-Knowing Sky Grandpa (tm) says, "teh GAYS are BAD!", ergo gay marriage is also bad. The end.

What part of this don't you understand?

ON EDIT:

Actually, according to the GGASAKSG(tm), it doesn't matter if the homosexuals have children or not; they're still BAD!

A modest proposal: anyone can get married to anyone - for two years. After that if they have no children the marriage is dissolved. If marriage really were for the sake of families, then we could easily legislate it as such. You would get a temporary marriage for two years and it would become permanent when you could verify you had given birth to or adopted a child.

Expecting any kind of consistency from people who take the bible as infallible is a joke. Remember, being gay is just as bad as eating shellfish as is mixing textiles to the ancient Hebrews. Where are the protests for poly-cotton blends and Ivar's?

The Super Friends are not interested in sexual shenanigans unless there is serious, hot, sweaty, Man-on-Man action going on.

And really, if you think about it, why would ANYONE be interested in sexual shenanigans that didn't involve hot, sweaty, Man-on-Man action?

Don't tell them, but bi and homosexual people are known to frequent and play at the Cabin. *gasp*

does the article even mention the fact that there are OTHER sex camps in the area? Like the Bunkhouse place out past Redmond?

It's so hip and cutting edge to believe that all fat people are ugly and that all skinny people are beautiful.

Which is why it's surprising that the main publicity photos for some skinny people can be washed-out, photoshopped nightmares that you couldn't use to pick them out of a police line-up.

If they're skinny and beautiful, why would they need to do that?

YFTM that there's no fucking reason why such a story would make it on the front page with headline above the fold.

Hint to failing newspapers: Chasing the Enquirer isn't working, is it?

Many nights, Rosenstiel said, he left his TV on as he went to sleep to block out moaning and slapping noises.
"Once in a while it sounds like a raccoon dying," Rosenstiel said.

OK, he's got a point. They're too loud. Hundreds of cigarette butts in your yard? Been there, called the police myself. But it's a funny story.

I've always wondered, what does the "Z" mean in "ZOMFG"?

I like this:

"We're normal people who happen to enjoy sex," Elliston said.

Subtext: "Normal" people don't enjoy sex. Man, I feel sorry for normal people!

Hey remember that post Dan put up about the fat woman who rolled over in her sleep onto a baby and killed it. Gawd-I'm still laughing. Someone mentioned how horrible it must be for that women to have killed that child. Dan of course has the right attitude about the incident. Who gives a fuck about that woman and kid. We sloggers have been amused-now let's move on to the next big thing.

@4 The people around them who thought they had moved into a residential community. We have zoning laws for a reason and I know I would pissed as fuck if my neighbor started running a business attracting upwards of 60 people to the neighborhood regardless of what they were doing.

I totally agree with 24. After living in the UD for 4 years having neighbors who host large parties multiple nights a week is terrible. Even if it's kept inside, which big parties never are, that many people will be pretty loud.

I totally feel bad for the neighbor who has to pick up their used condoms, that's just gross.

Hey, Dan, maybe the better question to ask is why the media didn't get a quote from the SFSSIM about this story since every time they write about "gay" marriage, there's a quote from one of those motherf*&%ers...

I am a very, very close neighbor to the Hardwood Cabin. I dont agree or participate with their lifestyle, and I personally agree that anyone who wants to be married should be. Nonah and Regan are wonderful neighbors. The property isnt a regular residential community. The houses are set up so far from the street you cant see them, and are surrounded by trees. The yards are larger then a football field. Parking? There is easily enough parking for over 75 cars on the property, so having 60 party goers is nothing. The groundskeeper quoted in the article, isnt the groundskeeper, he lives in a barn further up on the property with a band of yippee little dogs. Raccoons screaming? It may may be chihuahuas he is hearing. So there is an occasional black negligee hanging from a tree ... celebrate the differences, dont discrimate.

I don't believe for one minute that the sex is only indoors. Please. Frankly if you've got 60 biggins hit n it even indoors.......it's going to create quite a lot of noise not to mention seismic activity.

I know Regan and Nonah from other size-positive events, and remember their lengthy search for an appropriate place to have parties that would not infringe on neighbors' rights to quiet and privacy. They are good people, and are having fun in a responsible way with their friends. There's no pimping, no forced sex, no harm to anyone. The idea of the city shutting them down for zoning/business license issues is crazy. It's about NIMBY sex-phobes (and fat-phobes) pushing their agendas.
