Hell in a handbasket
You thought I was talkin' out of my ass each time I suggested that our society is going to hell in a handbasket, didn't you? Check this out and tell me I'm wrong:
"You would think a sex shop might not go over well in a neighborhood with lots of families and small children. But as CBS 2 HD found out, there's an adult store in Park Slope [Brooklyn, NYC] that's about to open where mothers and their young children are welcome.
"When we think of x-rated shops, we think of graphic windows and the Village.
"But along quiet Bergen Street in Park Slope, comes Babeland. You wouldn't even know what's sold here, unless you read the fine print.
"There are lots of body products but adult toys are the biggest seller here. Claire Cavanah is the owner, and a mom who says she designed the place to be kid friendly.
"'Strollers will be welcome in the store and we are putting a changing table in the bathroom in case the little one needs a diaper change while you're shopping,' Cavanah said."
