Morning TV Strip Poker

Laundry day in the early am before the rush of desperate, destitute, and distracted invade the shopping plaza of no return over off Twain avenue, almost noon now and I almost wanted to give some old guy short on a bit of change to do his laundry, but the second I reached into my pocket for the money, a small army of handout artists began circling the laundromat to get a taste of my new found generosity, so forget it, guess the old man will have to do his clothes by hand once again. I left a bunch of throwaway clothes in a trash can and someone has already retrieved them alongwith an assortment of remnants from inside my van, tv show souvenirs mostly that have been taking up space. Attempting to watch Spanish version of Today show, except it is called Hoy. There is a magician performing card tricks under the guise of strip poker with a small group of male and female guests/hosts at his sides. The game has been rigged for the women to win every hand as the guys over the course of several hands are reduced to boxer shorts and the sheer delight of the ladies who emphatically cheer "Take it off, take it off." Don't really get much of this on the actual today show, it is pretty tame on comparison to the cast of seductive hotties on Hoy, live commercials for laundry soap, funny enough and other household goods which might lead to more of a domesticated slant toward the Spanish audience, but watching a strip poker contest on live morning television is one thing I had yet to witness, even throught my travels of watching morning shows in hotel rooms and buses across the globe. The last thought had to do with why the men played the roll of loser in the contest, maybe they by letting them win, it is no wonder they get so many attractive women, from Florida to Argentina, just a thought, time to fold some clothes now.
