Was that a pic of Jag in the second veranda shot. The one with the guy in the pink LaCoste golf shirt? I remember that shirt!!!

SM
Sure looks like him, he's such a world traveler!

sandman,

Yep, that's me.

Jag

how the f--- can anyone identify anyone with just a swatch of cloth???? who do you work for the FBI or CIA???

Who else would wear a PINK shirt in VM.
Macho, Macho, man....I want to be a macho man...

LL,

Found out the VM girls love PINK, that's why I wear it there.

Jag

Jag,
You are a sly devil. Now I have to go repack for thursday and include some pink stuff!

sandman, i am so glad you are not a private investigator for my wife. last week in the paper, someones wife who worked for the state police crime lab took her husbands underware and analyzed it for semen and other fluids. they are in the middle of a divorce. glad to see our state funds used so wisely.

How did you know she hired me? Damn and I was looking forward to the payday!!!

Diversity,

That's an interesting story, was she just double-checking the guy's jizz or looking for some other dude's jizz in there, or what?

Sounds like the old joke "I went to my doctor and he asked for urine, stool and semen samples. I said 'Doc, I'm in a hurry, can I just leave you my underwear?'"

Are the lime (or lemon?) slices complementary?

The limes in the pisser make sense, now if someone can explain why sometimes public urinals have ice in them I would appreciate it. Botafogo Praia Shopping, at least at the theatre, always has ice in the pissers and I don't know why.

they are in the bowl for 3or 4 hours,then sliced and served with the caipirinha.

Where did you even find a urinal out there? I thought that is what the street was for.

common cat, the ice cools you down between sessions.. Porcao Ipanema has ice in thier urinals.....

FYI, ice used in urinals is the best product to reduce the smell of urine. After each urination it just melts away down the drain, and most importantly, it's the cheapest.

In that case, perhaps they need to pave the alleys at VM with ice! Of course, that wouldn't take care of the ensuing drainage problem but at least it would be a start.

So, ice (frozen water) is better than water (non-frozen, non-vapor water) to flush away piss? Keeping it suspended in melting ice is less smelling then pouring it immediately down the drain, with a water chaser?

In Rio, is ice actually cheaper than water? Instead of buying bottles of water just I just buy bags of ice and let it melt, then poor it into an empty bottle?

I'm more confused than Jaguar now but one thing I'm sure of, if I need to piss I'm just going to piss outside and if I have to use a public bathroom, I'll piss in the shitter instead of the urinal.

Actually, this whole "piss smell" discussion has failed to focus on one critical point. Exactly what function does the piece of toilet (or other type of) paper placed neatly next to the lime slices fulfill?

The ice reduces evaporation duh...

It does not take long to figure out how things work in VM. The cost is $25R or $26 if the girl has to supply the condem. She keeps half and half goes to the house. The higher the producer the girl is; the closer to the street she is.

One girl told me she made over $1500R/week. Now do the math, ok she may get bar fined twice a week at (her cost $300R, she keeps half) that means at twice a week, she earns 300R, now to earn an additional 1200R at 12.5R a fuck that would be 96 sessions a week. Does not sound as bad saying the girl does 96 sessions a week, wait don't forget the 2 barfines, ok 98 sessions. Now if we said, she fucked 98 guys a week....good thing the girls are low mileage......now who wanted one of these girls as a brasilian wife......DUH

"....if you look close you will see a mint on the pillow"

What a fucking hilarious thread to read after those pics were posted. This shit couldn't possibly be made up....disgusting filth and decadence. It says prohibited to anyone under 18....damn, it should read at least 25. Absolutely disturbing stuff.

I just wonder what pics Jag is showing them on his phone.

jesus christ eagle eye (aka cat) i carefully cropped those pics..........you definately have to much time on your hands........ why don't you tell me how many seeds are in the limes?????

After seeing those "limes" in the pisser and the discussion about frequent use of ice in brasilian urinals, I will now have to do a double-take on the orders of my Caipirinhas.

Jag and I climbed three sets of narrow stairs just to talk the girl in the yellow towel out of it! See the pics Jag took of her(prev VM discus) once she surrendered the towel, it was worth the climb..
Diversity, are you still buying the "penthouse" overlooking the beer garden? You kept disappearing all afternoon, I knew that leaving you with 100ri was a bad thing.
Jag could never keep everyone together that day, hell for $13 it was a major cost-averaging adventure, that's for certain.

Thanks for the insight on VM

Cfk
it is my understanding you were mia for a considerable amount of time yourself, Like a fish takes to water, I believe thats how Jag put it.

Does the number 3 mean anything!

IT WAS RESEARCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gentlemen,

Several days ago, a good friend and former board member, Travelsrr, and I went to Vila Mimosa on an undercover fact-finding mission. In order to find out as many facts as we possibly could while at the same time remaining deep undercover, we decided to go there at a time when there would be only a few people enjoying its hospitality. Consequently, we arrived at 7:30 a.m. and found that we were the only potential clients in the entire place. Like always, I blended right in with my pink polo shirt, khaki shorts, and blue and green striped Reef flip-flops. Oh, before I forget, don't ever wear flip-flops there—they’re a health hazard, but more about that in a moment.

Arriving at that ungodly hour gave us an opportunity to walk around without too many hookers annoying us. We were also able to casually observe the cleaning crews hard at work, and photograph several establishments outside, including one on the inside. I've never seen another photograph of this area published anywhere, so this might be a first. Inside they were hosing down the place with water cascading down each establishment’s spiral staircase along with the previous night’s filth and several condoms. We presumed they weren’t new ones and neither of us was willing to check it out more thoroughly. I know we’re crazy, but we’re not stupid!







Anyway, everything flowed out into the hallway where others used large broom-like squeegees to push it out into the street gutter. This must be why the gutters are always full, even during drought conditions. I was able to snap a few photos to show you this delightful brew. After you look at them, you’ll understand why I told you not to wear flip flops.




We each bought a bottle of water and as we approached my favorite table on the veranda, someone threw a bucketful of a foamy liquid concoction all over the place, completely dousing the veranda. The smell of disinfectant instantly filled the air. At that point, we decided to take a walk around to learn more while the veranda dried out. About thirty meters down the one of the interior hallways, we spotted a small kiosk selling all sorts of paraphernalia. She had almost everything imaginable for sale. For instance, she had cotton balls, combs, brushes, hair spray, K-Y jelly, super glue (?), batteries, condoms, thongs, shoes, Tee shirts and hats for sale. In other words, everything a hard working hooker needed was available there.

However, I was a little perplexed by the fact that she had an inordinate amount of Super Glue on hand because I couldn’t figure out its practical use in VM. Then Travelsrr pointed out that the girls probably needed it to fasten and refasten their artificial fingernails. Whew, that took a load off my mind! For a minute there, I had visions of some annoying VM patron (me) getting punished by being super glued to several ugly hookers. How would I explain that to Lucy? His explanation makes a little more sense than mine, wouldn’t you agree?

As Travelsrr was rummaging through her Tee shirt and hat inventory, he made a stunning assessment. Nothing, repeat nothing, was monogrammed with the initials VM, or the name Vila Mimosa. Shit, it probably wasn’t even trademarked yet. It was a brilliant observation on his part. Unfortunately, it was immediately followed up by one of the dumbest ideas imaginable. He wanted to have thousands of Tee shirts printed up with the following message emblazoned across the chest of each in English, German, or Portuguese: MY DAD WENT TO VILA MIMOSA AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS LOUSY TEE SHIRT! I looked at him and asked, “Is your blood sugar okay?” which is my subtle way of saying, “You’re fucking nuts.”

While we were sitting on the freshly cleaned veranda drinking the bottled water, we watched the crack, well trained Municipal Trash Disposal Unit dressed in orange Prefeictur uniforms go to work. Like clockwork they swept the hundreds of plastic cups and rubbers out of the gutters and used a shovel like a dust pan to get them up to put into the trash truck. This is where they often fucked up. About half the time they missed the truck, but who cares? Nobody goes to Vila Mimosa for the clean streets, do they? Of course not, guys go there for the overall experience. Within ten minutes of them cleaning, it looked the same as before they arrived.

One of the working girls sat down next to us to eat her breakfast. It consisted of a large doughy, not flakey, croissant filled with ham and cheese, and a small cup of horribly sweet black coffee. Looking over at our table, she smiled and offered us a bite which we graciously declined. This was killing Travelsrr because he forgot to eat before going on our little fact finding field trip. I knew his blood sugar was low! Remember; always eat a hearty meal before visiting Vila Mimosa because you never know how long you’ll stay there.

On more than one occasion, my tour little group of VM neophytes would have to leave early because someone in the group forgot to eat and wasn’t willing to try the delicious BBQ cuisine down at the Culinary Court. On this day, we didn’t even have that option due to the fact that the Culinary Court was closed. Oddly, although VM management tries, unsuccessfully I might add, to keep the whore houses clean, I’ve never seen anyone cleaning up the cooking area, which only confirms my suspicions that there are several health violations lurking around there somewhere.

Where was I? Oh yeah, sitting on the veranda with Travelsrr and the hooker. One of the taxi drivers asked her if she was working at the moment. She told him that she was off duty because she was tired. Apparently, she understood basic Vila Mimosa Marketing 101. It goes kind of like this: Tired hooker equals lousy sex, which translates into less repeat business and lower profitability. Hey, maybe that’s why my ex-wife, the Bitch, always said, “I’m too tired,” --she didn’t want me to have lousy sex. But if that’s so, what would account for that nagging 19 year headache she always had? Oh well, who understands women?

Travelsrr started talking with the hooker in Portuguese and suddenly she held up four fingers on one hand and two fingers on the other. Since I’m an expert at sign language, I immediately understood what she was saying, so I nodded and smiled. TravelsrrI looked at me and said, “You understand her?” “Of course I do, she said she’s forty-two years old, but I don’t think she looks a day over thirty-five.” At this point he started giving me some shit about my blood sugar and learning Portuguese. And then added, “What she actually said is she’s twenty-eight and has two daughters, one is four and the other is two years old.” “Fuck you; we’re here to get facts not study her God damn family tree. Ask her some important questions like do they ever clean the BBQ grills down the street?” With that admonition, he started jabbering away, asking her all kinds of questions. He looked shocked at something she said, stopped talking, turned, looked at me and said, “Bad news, they just raised prices the first of January to $R31 from R$25.” Before I could stop myself, I shouted out, “Holy shit, now the Brazilians are even fucking up the low end of the market, too.”

On that sad note, we decided to leave. Several taxi drivers, who hang around VM all the time, approached us to let us know that they would gladly take us to Copacabana for a fixed price of anywhere from R$30 to R$40. That’s the only downside of VM—a limited choice of transportation. Taxis are about your only option; they know it and always try to gouge the unsuspecting gringo. However, we planned ahead. Since the trip to VM cost us R$19.30 in Roberto’s metered taxi, we decided to find other means of transportation home. I’d been studying the Metro (Subway) map and it appeared that the Estacion stop, just past Central, was closest to VM. Sure enough, after a delightful fifteen minute walk we were at the Metro station and on our way home. Of Course, this option is only available during the hours the Metro operates, which is 11:00 p.m. weekdays and 1:00 a.m. on weekends.

Jag

The girls at VM do not get half of the fee, as Diversity suggested.

R$ 5 goes for the room (maybe it increased a little to 6 or so, my info is a few years old as I don't go to that disgusting place), the rest goes to the girl.

This is how it works in many brothels all over Brazil: the house makes money with room rentals and with over-priced drinks (well not as overpriced as in US or European bars, but twice as much as in your corner bar in Rio), . The girls are fairly free to come and go as they please and get most of the money.

The exploitation of having to pay 50% as a fee and being subject to strict rules and fines is a bad habit that unfortunately is very frequent in Rio, in termas and agencies etc.

Probably this is due to legal repression, bribes, police action etc. that make it risky and expensive to run a brothel or an agency



I was in a small town far from Rio. We picked up the girls outside work hours, took them to a motel, and did not pay a dime to the house.

All this in full view of the house owner, and with girls that actually lived and slept in the brothel.

Girls were free outside working hours. And there, too, there was only a small fee for room rental, or a somewhat bigger fee to take her out of the house for the night.

So, in spite of all negative talk about Vila Mimosa, the dirt etc, they have a very positive point. The girls are not getting insanely exploited as in most venues in Rio.

Now, if anyone ever opens a house with R$ 10 or R$ 15 rooms that have real showers, fresh bed sheets and occasional cum removal off the floor, I would venture back to try VM again.

There are good enough girls at VM, but the rooms are the pits. And yes, the dirty street and the disgusting patrons are also a strong turnoff.

Jaguar, even I could not pick such a bad time to pick VM. I already tried 10 am or 11 am, and it is actually quite pleasant and clean at that time. Did not know you get up that early!

BS,

Actually, early morning is a great time to go there to photograph the place because it's freshly cleaned, hardly any customers around to fuck up the photos, the girls are somewhat attentive and will even let you take pictures of them. Unfortunately, the talent isn't spectacular at that hour. While we were there we saw only 40 girls working, and they weren't exactly "the cream of the crop," if you know what I mean.

I really wanted to try to get pictures inside; that's why we went so early. As anyone who's been there can tell you, taking photos inside with customers around is severely frowned upon, especially if you alone. In a group you might get away with it, but both the girls and the customers get really pissed off. Since I usually piss people off just by being myself, I don't need to compound things with a camera; that's why the 7:30 a.m. foray.

Oh, for the record, I'm generally awake at 5:00 a.m.

Jag

Jag,

first you tell me the chocolates increased in price 50%, and now you are telling me the girls just raised their rate from R$25 to R$31, a 20% increase. You definitly are the bearer of bad news! BTY 7:30AM what in the world were you thinking?
Hemp, the blond partially hidden in pic 5 is mine..don't even think about it, I called it!

CFK

Jag,

Is it true that the real reason you like VM is that it's next to the zoo, so you can secretly hop the fence to see MBL when the guys go to the rooms at VM? Admit it.

CFK,

Yep, guess I'm always the bearer of bad new. First, people dying, and now virtual economic disaster for any gringo.

News flash-- Terasco Atlantico has raised all prices at least 10% effective January 1, 2008. That great Chateau Pomadore fillet mignon dish we all love that used to cost R$30 in 2005; well, it now costs R$38. To add to our misery the reais was 3 to 1 then; today I got 1.75. Roughly speaking, that dish went from the equivalent cost of $10 in 2005, to costing over $22 today.

Despite us bemoaning the dollar's fall, the Euro has also taken a big hit against the reais. Taking all the above into account, it's easy to see why there aren't so many gringo's in town.

Do you want to hear more good news?

Jag

Cat,

Had breakfast with MBL today. She sends her regards long with a voodoo doll in your image. I also let her hold that R$15 TIM card you asked me to buy for you. When I asked her what she was doing chanting over it, she said "I bless it." She must really like you because she blessed it for about five minutes.

Hey Cat, on a serious note, please let me know if your hair starts falling out, too.

Jag

CFK - She is all yours this time. Now I need the number of the blond in Lima OK my friend. - Hemp

If that guy continues to hang out in Vila Mimosa the place will soon begin to develop a seedy reputation.

(Message edited by blissman on January 18, 2008)

Since Jag lives or hides out in Rio now he might become the new mayor of VM. - Hemp

Bliss,

The first gay bar has opened inside VM, and if you wear a pink shirt you get free entry. I want to lay responsibility for this on Jag but with only one data point we can't be sure. All I know is if a cigar store opens that also offers on-site ass-crack waxings, it's time to burn the complex down.

Cat,
You are so damn narrow minded, what have you got against ass-crack waxing?
CG

I tell you, if Jag keeps this up, we're going to have to introduce him to your stalker. Actually, we should do that anyways, that would be an interesting development in Jag's life.

CG's stalker would kill Jag within 15 minutes of their meeting. Oil and matches! Don't do it!

Luckily for Jag, she's in MG for the time being, and won't return to Rio until she hears that CG is back in town.

This place puts TJ to shame! I have to go check it out!

True. MasterBates would love the place. Check out the whale in Jag's first set of pics. If she isn't MasterBates material, I don't know who is!
