Bonitas: Far fewer people there recently, and understandably so. The mood seems fine, but the activities are curtailed. The Box Troll isn't using the flashlight, but he doesn't need to... the ladies are reluctant to do much. OTC is a potential, but for ridiculous requests.

Locas (Composite): Clip joint. Hard upsell for "VIP," but likelihood of being scammed. As for the regular upstairs lapdance area, there are now big signs warning about ZERO TOLERANCE for any activities [that would rate as "Encounter Reports"]. Still many ladies there, though, and some are quite pretty. If you just want to sit and enjoy stage dancing, CL on Composite has good stage dancing.

BDD: Speaking of good stage dancing, obviously BDD has that. But BDD also has outrageous scammers (or perhaps just GPS). Humorous (or ridiculous) examples over the past couple of months:
A pretty American redhead who smokes cigarettes asked me to join her on the smoking patio. I don't smoke, but I walked out there with her. She engaged in a sales pitch for the ages. If I would give just six-fifty to the club, and more than that to her, then I could see her "completely naked! Wouldn't that be fun? Don't you want to see all of me? We will be given a bottle of champagne," even though neither of us want it...
A pretty American blonde approached me at BDD recently and sat on my lap. She told me I was very lucky because I just met a fun East Texas girl. If I would give just six-fifty to the club and a thou to her, then we could "massage each other."
A pretty Cuban walked up to me with "do me" eyes, and took my hand and guided me up the stairs. She took me to the line for the most secluded chair in the upstairs lapdance area. That was taking so long to become available, she took me to a chair on the other side of the bar, in the middle of other chairs. She then made her offer... think manual stimulation for a couple of dances, but giving what would be the amount for fifteen dances. I opted for zero dances.

Flash Dancer: As has always been the case there, zero extra activities. Everyone is proactively adamant about that.

Lipstick: About half a dozen dancers, about five patrons, about zero chance of interesting encounters. This used to be a fun place. It's curious now to see it still open, as they cannot be making money as a club.

Locas (Arlington): A former "sure thing" asked me to come see her there. I obliged. There, she advised me that "Chicas Bonitas f%c&ed everything up; there is nothing allowed at all here anymore." A guy who may have been the shift manager watched the downstairs dance spot like a hawk, and no one ventured upstairs, if that is even permitted anymore.

On the positive side, visits to these clubs have been relatively cheap...just some drinks and stage-side tipping.
