Yesterday I posted a link to a story about a tavern that got into trouble with the law…
That story has continued on and I came across an interesting little quote:
“We were mortified when the sign went up because we weren’t sure, and we Googled what succubus means – it’s really right across the street from a church right, next store to a catholic book store. It’s terrible,” said Susan Sharp, a Covington neighbor.
When the sign for Succubus Tavern went up last year, neighbor Sharp found the definition for succubus: A female demon who has sex with sleeping men.
End quote.
The original story that is taken from is here.
Now I have just one little question for the people that were unsure what a Succubus was… Assuming that you are church goers and you know your Bible… Wouldn’t you be familiar with the story of Lilith and Adam and what happened to her?
Judging from the image accompanying the article I quoted from, the sign isn’t exactly “obvious” in its appearance. But that’s neither here or there really. What gets me is the use of Succubus in this case seems rather slip shod really. I mean, alright it’s an adult bar and so forth, but really, you couldn’t figure out a better name?
Oh and one other thing… Let’s not continue to rant over the word Succubus in all of this shall we? For all of the coverage over this event, there is a heck of a lot of emphasis given to the use of the word really…
Now I do want to say that I am in no way trying to give support to the people that may have done wrong in all of this. That is for the courts to decide and they will one way or the other. That is after all what they are here for…

Odd things that people see as funny…
Found this blog this morning…
It’s here.
One part of it caught my eye…
We also got in a really big pile of fantasy/supernatural themed romance novels. They are hilarious. Who knew vampires, werewolfs and shape-shifting dragons yearned for love as well? My personal afavourite, though was ‘Succubus Blues’ -m about a succubus, who, when she isn’t stealing the souls of men thourhg their wangs, works in a bookstore and has a crush on a ‘sexy writer’ named Seth. Bridget Jones et al. think they have problems – how much worse is it when you can’t get a guy, not due to ugliness or social ineptitiude liek the rest of us, be because when you touch him you will suck out a piece of his SOUL. *dies*
Hmmm…
OK then… Obviously you have a wonderful love life then I suppose?
In any case, maybe what you don’t understand is that, believe it or not, it is possible for all creatures in the universes to find love and have love.
And when we can find it…
<hugs my hubby>
It’s something wonderful…
