I've never been to an adult movie theater, but remember when there were many in Hollywood. Back in the 1980s I was called for jury duty at the Hollywood Municipal Courthouse. I ended up as a juror on a case involving a man caught "pleasuring himself" while watching the film. Apparently the police routinely walked through the theaters to catch guys. It was all pretty sleazy, and I can understand why an employer wouldn't want to be connected with it.

Mr. Imus called them nappy heads. In Stevie Wonders song I Wish, the first line is 'Looking back on when I was a little nappy-headed boy.'

In regards to clarkson ( funny you did not mention why Clarkson punched the producer ) The hosts had been filming for 14 hours and they had paid said restaurant in advance for the entire crew to be fed.

Pee Wee Herman was a TV host: he got the same shaft that Fred Willard got. They were men _being_ men. They weren't in a classroom where little school children could see them. They weren't in a mall where John Q. Public and his frigid wife Dottie could look at them. They were in the dark, during a "routine" _shakedown_ (which meant that some sleeze-ball saw them there and called the National Enquirer at the same time they called the cops. Either that, or those rags called the cops for the bigger story about them getting arrested and booked) The irony is, that poor Billy Bush was only guilty by association. He didn't _do_ anything except listen and laugh nervously at some high-stakes asshole was basically flaunting every schoolboy's dream Fred and Pee-wee lost their jobs. Pee-wee lost his career, his credibility _and_ his character. He should definitely be on this list

30:24 One doesn't have to be a body language expert to be disturbed by Trump's action when he first met that scantily clad slim beauty who's young enough to be his granddaughter. He took her proffered hand s any normal person would, and then immediately pulls her hand towards himself. She doesn't move towards him but is left with her arm at full stretch. That's clearly a power move, and I've seen him do it on when he later met other world leaders for the first time. Now no matter how undiplomatic and crass that is when meeting a world leader for the first time, it's down right creepy when when an of Trump's age does it to such a young woman. He's has a strange notion of what constitutes masculinity, and for me totally lacks grace and respect for women.
