The Wait is Over! The Art Cinema in Hartford Re-Opens Saturday December 19th at 12 Noon!

 

Doc here, a man who some say once exclaimed "Do you believe in miracles? Yes!"

After 23 months and thousands upon thousands of dollars in infrastructure improvements to the 101 year old theater, the mighty Art Cinema , 255 Franklin Ave. in Hartford IS BACK!

Then Good Doctor could not be any happier for the Art Cinema's owner, Ernie, Project Manager Dave, Ernie's right hand man Tosho, and all the kind people who either donated their time or money (through the Art's GoFundMe) to get the old girl back on her feet.

It has been an arduous project, with many ups and downs along the way.  I have seen pics of the work in progress, from the re-upholstered seats, the new aisleway, refurbished brass railings, the monumental amount of scraping and painting, and re-done ladies lounge to name a few. 

100 Year old buildings have 100 year old problems, and the list of needed to be corrected issues was LONG!  Fire and building codes are no trivial matter, and the building needed to be brought up to code. 

Oh, and the small matter of COVID-19 didn't make things any easier.  The Good Doctor would have loved to be on site, helping get The Art back on it's feet.  But between a thousand miles and the world catching on fire, I had to be content working behind the scenes for big chunks of the 23 months The Art was closed. 

This week all projects were signed off on by the city, and the doors to the mighty Art Cinema will be popped open tomorrow (12/19/20) to welcome back new and old friends alike.  The auditorium looks great, and Ernie and the team cannot wait to welcome you back. 

The new hours for The Art Cinema are:

Sunday through Thursday Noon til 9pm.

Friday and Saturday Noon til 10pm.

The Good Doctor will be back to Hartford when travel restrictions are relaxed to re-photograph the Art Cinema in all it's glory, and I can't wait to share those images with you!

The Art Cinema will have a certified set of COVID-19 rules to be followed, and those rules can be found on the homepage of the Art Cinema's official website HERE. 

• Masks are mandatory upon entry.
• Touchless temperature taken upon entry. 
• Guests must read the COVID-19 rules prior to paying at the register.

New to the mighty Art Cinema is the DIAMOND REWARDS Card!  Every time you visit The Art Cinema (paying regular admission), you get your card punched for visits 1 through 4. Visit 5 is FREE!

The Art Cinema is the premier classic adult theater in the United States!  The Couple's Only VIP Balcony is legendary, and this is one of the last true adult theater experiences left anywhere!

I urge you to visit and support the mighty Art Cinema, as it re-opens to provide you an incomparable adult theater experience in this thing of ours. 

You can also follow The Art Cinema on social media platforms like:

Please get the word out, that the mighty Art Cinema is BACK! 

Congrats once again to Ernie, Dave, Tosho, and all the volunteers and donors that made this happen!

Thanks,

Doc

Breaking News! The Wait is Almost Over! The Dramatic Return of The Art Cinema in Hartford!

 Doc here, a man who some say is proud to publish this report after almost a 2-year pause in operations for the mighty Art Cinema in Hartford, CT.

After an enormous (and expensive) amount of work on the 101 year old cinema's infrastructure (including a brand new state of the art fire alarm system, refurbishing the cinema's seats, creating new aisles, painting, and much more), and final sign-off by the city of Hartford, the Art Cinema re-opens in the next few days.  

The Art Cinema published this video to YouTube earlier today:

The Good Doctor will be publishing and posting the exact opening day and time, and will link to the Art Cinema's website when The Journal confirms when the doors are popped open for the first time since January of 2019. 

Congrats to the Art Cinema's owner Ernie, to Project Manager Dave, to Ernie's long-time right hand man Tosho, and thank you to all the kind people who donated time, money, and energy to get the mighty Art back open again!

More details will follow, Lizardos & Lizardettes!

Thanks,

A Journal Holiday Spectacular! Pennycumslut Hits The Murder Basement at Hollywood Erotic Boutique in December 2018 (w/PICS!)

Doc here, a man who some say was the centerfold of "Gobblers & Drumsticks" magazine in it's April 1988 issue. 

As I promised two days ago on the Twitter machine, I had a little something special whipped up for you on this Thanksgiving Day, 2020.  2020 has been a fucker, and we certainly deserve a lot better than what we got this year. 

Looking back, one of the main reasons 2019 was so terrific, it was the year we all met and got to know intimately the amazing Pennycumslut!  In this HOT holiday report, the lovely Pennycumslut makes her trip to Hollywood Erotic Boutique in Seattle, WA, and it's mysterious "murder basement". 

Take it away, Pennycumslut!

Hollywood Erotic Boutique - December 2018

12706 Lake City Way NE, Seattle, WA
-----

Hi Doc,

... I don't remember what we were doing before we went to the murder basement. Fucking, probably. Dirty talking our plans. His growls in my ears and my vulnerability.

He told me it was a bit scary. Tried to explain the differences between this theater and the others I had visited, and that we would go - and if it was no good, we would leave.

I trust him.

I'm scared.

In my head on the way there, it's building up inside me. The fear, anxiety... The what - ifs and the potential of disappointing him. The excitement. The wetness between my legs.

I've thought about this. So much, since I was last in Seattle. Which currently feels like a lifetime ago, and what if I can't...

Pennycumslut

He touches my leg, and I'm trembling a bit. He tells me I'll be fine.

We park, and it's cold and dark. I'm wearing his choice in dresses, and nothing underneath. As he takes me by the hand and we walk around to the entrance I feel exposed, already...

Inside, I trail behind him, and our admission is free. The retail desk is immediately inside the door and there are a few sections of videos and toys and lingerie...

He leads me through the store, to the back, and outside... The staircase is external and the chill adds to my trembling as we walk down the stairs.

Through a non descript door with a fence looking into the parking lot. Into the basement. It had it's pet nickname from me in that moment.

He tells me what it will be like inside.. And then we enter.

We look around, my hand firmly in his. HEB is dark and cool. Four rooms with concrete floors and black chairs with metal arms.

HEB's Chairs in the MB

We settle on plastic chairs in an open room in the back, which would become the room we went to on each visit. A few men around...

I want to drop my head to his chest and breathe for a minute, but he doesn't give me that tonight. His words are firm as he tells me to kneel, to suck his dick.

I must hesitate because he repeats himself, and I shift from the seat and glance at the dirty floor...

"all the way down."

And so I'm on my knees, on the cold, stained floor, and he quietly offers that I'm a good girl as I draw his cock into my mouth.

Pennycumslut

As soon as I'm down there, I'm connected to this. I hear voices around us and I'm aware of some movement.

Daddy tells me to lift my dress, and I do. Kneeling with my ass raised and exposed I continue to try to please him, moaning a little as I feel his cock harden in my mouth...

"that must be the little girl". I hear a voice say, a distance behind me. I don't know what, or how, but I wiggle a little bit, showinh off my ass and pussy, now wanting this attention, wanting this...

A moment later and cold hands are on me, and he pulls my mouth off of him, directing me to a stranger's. Other hands are on my skin and I glance at Daddy just once before continuing, wanting...

The first man who fucks me, does it fast. He uses my body like an object and it feels good. I like feeling used and objectified.

The second man who fucks me, talks to Daddy while he does it. Gets permission to cum on my face.


I want this. I suck the dick of a third guy while he slams into me from behind, and when he says turn around I am ready for him, and crouching in front of him as he unloads all over my face. I smile, feeling buzzed from this.

Pennycumslut

Daddy takes pictures. Right there, in that moment, I am proud and whole and filthy. I am his.

The third guy fucks me and I have to fuck him back harder. He is less certain, less sure of this.

When we're done, Daddy wipes my face a little. We stand and he talks to the men who just used me. I am shy and a bit shaky and want him to be so proud that I am his...

He leads me out, the stairs outside blasting my heated skin with cold air. He holds my hand. Leads me to the car. Settles me in.

He tells me I was amazing. Fearless. I think I thank him. I tell him I was scared. It doesn't matter.

We do something else scary on the way home, another first. More filth.

At home, I climb into the shower, alone for a moment... My knees are covered in dirt, grime and dried cum. Later I wish I'd taken a photo of that. In the moment, I'm just fascinated.

He joins me and washes me. His dirty girl. Cum dried in my eyebrows, on my face.

Back in bed, he fucks me like he owns me. Every moment is perfection. I fall apart beneath him over and over. And my love of the theater scene is solidified.

(side note: I affectionately call HEB, "murder basement", due to aesthetics and mood - but it's been an almost overwhelmingly positive place for me to visit, full of really, really hot memories).

Doc here... I'll give everyone a moment to compose themselves. OK? OK. The amazing Pennycumslut is a very bad girl, and I'm sure she'd have it no other way. This introduction to HEB through her eyes is one of the most insightful reports I've had the privilege to publish in quite a long time.

When the dust settles and the world isn't on fire any longer, I look forward to circling back with Pennycumslut in Seattle, and hopefully talking her into another photo shoot for you, the good readers of The Journal.

We are thankful for her!

Thanks,
Doc

Update! Tito's-n-Soda and Milkman2484 Get to the Bottom of the New Ownership of The Westwood Theater in Toledo, OH

Doc here, a man who some say put full-contact croquet on the map in the mid-1980's, with an update to Mr. Glass' report from this morning regarding the future of the Westwood Theater in Toledo, Ohio by first time contributors Tito's-n-Soda and Milkman2484.

The news my friends is not encouraging to card carrying members in this thing of ours. 

Firstly, take it away Tito's-n-Soda!

***

My Good Doctor,

I noticed your post on the Twitter-webs that one of my favorite old haunts in the Glass City was purchased and pending a re-birth.  What great news that would be!  But alas, I think the Craigslist rumor mill has dashed some hopes once again.  

The Westwood Theater in Happier Times, 2012

A quick search on the Lucas Co. auditors site shows that the good ole Westwood Theater was sold at the end of October 2020.  But the purchaser is one "Overseer of Westwood Cathedral of Word and Worship".  

Lucas County Auditors Record for 1602 West Sylvania Ave., Toledo OH

I remember having several heavenly experiences at the Westwood of old in the past.  But I won't get too excited about a Westwood return to glory with the new ownership.  

I'll raise a glass in hopes that I'm wrong but until then... 

Cheers, 

Tito's-n-Soda 

***

In a similar vein, Milkman2484 sent along the following as well:

Good Dr. Emilio, 

With my limited skills at searching I did happen to find the Lucas County Auditors website, and it does indeed say the property was sold on Oct 27 2020. But from the name of the new listed owner on the site, it may not be good news.  The new listed owner is "Overseer of Westwood Cathedral of Word and Worship".  

***

Doc here once again... Many thanks for a great first time field reports (and property record sleuthing) from Tito's-n-Soda and Milkman2484.  Well done gents!  

So kids, if one can assume by the namesake of the new owners, the next event at the former Westwood Theater is more likely to be an exorcism than a sexy theme party showing XXX fare in a classic adult theater. I have lost count on the number of post-mortems I have written for The Westwood, but this final chapter seems pretty definite.

As some of you may remember, I did a lot of work with the former owners as the Westwood was being renovated and upgraded back in 2012 and 2013.  I photographed the interior of this great old theater on many occasions, and she was pretty photogenic. I'll miss her. 

The Westwood Theater in 2012, Toledo Ohio

Thank you to everyone who jumped on my info request on Twitter and on The Journal, as we tried to get to the bottom of the sale!

We lost two great classic adult theaters this year: The Westwood and The Oregon Theater in Portland. The suckage that 2020 has wrought has been cruel. 

Thanks,

Doc

Breaking News! Mr. Glass: Is Something Afoot at the Westwood Theater in Toledo, OH?

Doc here, a man who some say spent the majority of Doctober relishing the taste sensations of 4 new meatball recipes, of which 3 are keepers. 

Over the weekend, the Lizardo Model KY Teletype Machine powered up and spit out a quick report from the front lines in Toledo, Ohio from senior Journal scribe Mr. Glass. 

Lizardo Model KY

The Good Doctor needed to read this quick dispatch twice, as my eyes were possibly deceiving your old friend in the white suit and aviators. Upon the re-read, what I first read was accurate.

Here is the quick note from Mr. Glass:

Hi Doc,

 

Mr. Glass. Cannot confirm at this time but if I hear anything I will let you know.

https://toledo.craigslist.org/mis/d/toledo-westwood-again/7223135274.html

Via an anonymous post on Craigslist, the post claims that the Westwood Theater in Toledo was sold and will re-open soon. I have not seen any other information confirming this anywhere (including Fetlife).

Westwood Theater,  2012

So Lizardos and Lizardettes, if anyone can confirm the above and provide some details on the new ownership (hopefully), that would be greatly appreciated. 

You can contact me at emiliolizardo1@gmail.com , and I will happily get the your findings out.

Thanks,

Doc

Twistingly's Twisted Tales: 20,000 Leagues Under a Lake in Minnesota (w/Pics)

Doc here, a man who some say that from a distance, looks like an Italian lighthouse keeper.

How was your summer, everyone?  I spent most of mine in a beekeepers outfit while grocery shopping. 

Someone near and dear to your old friend in the white suit and aviators had a fantastic summer vacation adventure. Sun, water, fishing, and unsubstantiated rumors of pole dancing. Yes, that vacationer was that former fly girl, my good friend the lovely Twistingly.

Let's start off with the theme song for this report...

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip
That started from this Wisconsin port, aboard a tiny ship
The captain was a little brunette, a skipper brave and sure
A solo adventure set sail that day, on a three-hour tour
A three-hour tour

The weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed
If not for the courage of Twistingly, the 'Lil Donger would be lost
The 'Lil Donger would be lost

The ship set ground on the shore of this uncharted mansion's isle
With Twistingly, her curly 'do
The millionaire and his beach
This little nugget, a narwhal suit
Here on Twistingly's Isle

Doc,

Last month, my seven day vacation was spent on a small island in the Great Lake Minnetonka. 

Lake Minnetonka

On the last day, returning to civilization, I loaded the boat with my belongings and set sail (motor?). Twenty yards from dock, the engine screamed and seized. With no emergency oars and my calls for assist going unanswered, I floated for more than an hour before finally coming to shore on the private beach of a very nice multi-million dollar home. 

The 'Lil Donger

Looking for the front door, I walked barefoot, frizzy haired, and wet around the gigantic home (no security cameras?!?). Eventually, I was given an opportunity to explain to the homeowner how I came to be in his backyard. While understanding (and good looking!), he did not offer assistance, so I trekked the two miles to my car, came back for my belongings, and promised the homeowner someone would collect the tin can I left tied to his tree. 

I’d like to think somebody has.

~T~

***

Doc here again... There is a reason Twistingly's middle name is Danger (not Donger - that's the boat). One part narwhal, one part MacGyver, she turned an unfortunate scenario into a great story for us to enjoy.

Next time Lake Minnetonkans, pick up her distress call. She may toss you a craft beer to thank you.

Make sure to follow Twistingly on Twitter.

Thanks,

Doc

Dispatches From Abroad: A Cross Country Trek and a Visit to CVE in Gastonia, NC from That Quirky Girl in July, 2020! (w/NEW PICS!)

Doc here, a man who some say put the "can" in cannoli tossing, a favorite Italian picnic activity popularized in the ABC After School Special "The Boy with the Mustache in 7th Grade". 

One recent night in The Good Doctor's underground lair, nestled inside Lizardo Manor (located deep in The Valley, near the small women's liberal arts college), a scratchy short wave radio transmission was captured and recorded. The following is as close of a transcript that we (Barky Lizardo & myself) could translate:

*begin transmission*

Doc, can you hear me? Doc? Between the barking sled dogs and the sketchy transmission lines, I hope this message penetrates your airspace. 

This is That Quirky Girl, checking in from Beaver Creek, buried balls-deep inside The Yukon. While dog sled training continues, I feel the burning need to head back to the Tarheel State for upgraded electronic gear and a rendezvous (and by rendezvous, I mean a non-stop fuck fest) with Agent SSF. 

Theaters may be involved. Nudity will be involved. Body fluids most definitely will be involved.

*end transmission* 

I recognized the voice, and this was undoubtedly That Quirky Girl. Her unmistakable sexy Carolina accent, combined with the barking of huskies in the background, validated that was indeed this adult theater legend. She was on the move east, and this potentially could be a taste of old times at CVE in Gastonia, NC. 

And then it happened...

A Dispatch From Abroad hit my in-box, along with new images of That Quirky Girl.  A report so good that it will tickle your ass and potentially dehydrate you. You've been warned. 

Please welcome back to The Journal, my good friend (and part-time tai chi instructor) That Quirky Girl!

Hi Doc,

That Quirky Girl here checking in and reporting on a recent visit to my old stomping grounds.

How did this all come about you ask? Well, Dear Lizardos and Lizardettes, grab a seat and your reading glasses and I’ll explain.

After making multiple trips to Beaver Creek for use of their reliable and sufficient  WiFi (and to stock up on some Alaskan Amber beer). I decided that I had seen one too many bears at the local bar....and not the Grizzly or Polar variety. The time had come for me to make a trek to purchase a lightweight satellite terminal.... oh and the good NC beer!

As I was planning this trip I realized I was in much need to something besides  WiFi and good beer. I was due for a different kind of marathon than the one I’ve been training.... and there is only one person who can fill that request.... did you guess it... that would be none other than SSF (that stands for Super Secret Friend for those who are new to my reports). A quick call on the Sat phone and it was all arranged.

Home Stretch! The Art Cinema Needs Your Help! Please Donate to The Art's GoFundMe!

Doc here... The mighty Art Cinema in Hartford, CT is in it's final push for funding to complete their new required fire alarm system upgrade, and this is where I need you to please help out if possible!

The theater has been closed for almost 18 months now, but is on the verge of it's long awaited re-opening, pending the OK from the town after the alarm system is in. 

First of all, the Art Cinema's GoFundMe page is  https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-the-art-cinema-organization . Please donate a little or a lot.  I have, and hopefully you will too!

Ernie and his great team (including project manager CTDave) have put countless hours into upgrading all elements of the theater while working through the alarm system project, and they cannot wait to show you the new Art Cinema! I've seen a sneak peek of the new elements, and you are going to like what you see!

However, to get to that point, they need the remaining $7,200 to finish paying for the alarm system (which has been a huge undertaking).  And this is where you can help be part of saving the last major classic adult theater in the northeast

Please help donating via the Art Cinema's GoFundMe at https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-the-art-cinema-organization , and tell them Doc sent you!

Thank you for helping out this important project!

-Doc

Dispatches from Abroad: 4th of July Special! The Lovely A & Mister L (w/4 New HOT Pics AND New Video!)

Doc here, a man who some say once spent time at a county fair being that "Uncle Sam on Stilts" guy during our nation's birthday.  

Happy 4th of July Lizardos & Lizardettes!  Welcome to a special holiday edition of Dispatches from Abroad! In a normal year, this holiday would be celebrated with a Lizardo event at 15th Ave. Adult Theater in Chicago, with fireworks inside and out.

This year is different. This year, we must endeavor to find our fireworks in different places. 

What is to follow is the slice of hope we all need right now.  And hope is found in the incredible forms of my good friends The Lovely A and her guy, Journal associate editor Mister L!

What if I told you this year's fireworks display was The Lovely A in a sexy cheerleader outfit? And what if I told you that your eyeballs will be blessed with both high resolution pics and HD video?

You're welcome.

Please sit back, pop open a Fresca (Hi Gemini!), and enjoy the fireworks (and grand finale video) from The Lovely A and voiceover by Mister L !

Hey Doc! Hope you’re staying safe and sane during this crazy quarantine.

All of us have fantasies, am I right? And every red-blooded American man has – at one point or another – had a cheerleader fantasy. Fortunate is the guy who has a partner willing to indulge that desire, and I consider myself pretty damn lucky.

The Lovely A and I decided to go as “jock and cheerleader” to a Halloween party at a swingers club a few years ago. We picked her out an outfit online, and when it arrived it was nearly perfect. Just had to cut out the built-in panties from the skirt. Hehe.

The Lovely A

Once we got arrived, all eyes immediately focused on her. Her top was bulging from her large breasts and the skirt barely covered her delicious butt. We hung around in the crowd for an hour or so, talking to a few folks. But we couldn’t really drum up any interest. The vibe in those clubs is a lot different than you experience at places like 15th Avenue.

The place had a dance floor with a few poles, and above was a cage that hung down from the second floor. Ten or so couples were dancing, but we wanted to enjoy a different kind of fun. We made our way up stairs and wandered through the various rooms. There was lots of play going on, but no one appeared to want company.

The Lovely A

Dispatches from Abroad: The Awesome Linda in Chicago Touches Them All (w/3 NEW Pics!)

Doc here, a man who some say was a background dancer in the 1984 movie classic, "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo". He was easy to spot on screen with his neon green silk shirt and matching bandana. 

Welcome back to "Dispatches from Abroad", a limited series of reports from some of the legendary ladies from this thing of ours. This series has been super popular with you, the good readers of The Journal, so thank you!

In today's dispatch, we hear from one of my personal favorites from the Lizardo events at 15th Ave. Adult Theater in Chicago, the Awesome Linda!  If you have never seen her at one of my events, you have missed out big time.  Her sexy outfits are always amazing (two of my favorites were the sexy nun and the naughty schoolgirl), and her non-stop energy on stage is undeniable! 

Linda has also been known to socialize with a certain T-Rex at some parties, going as far as to don a T-Rex head while working the pole!  This T-Rex never went extinct!

Without further ado, please welcome this Dispatch from Abroad (and new pics) from the Awesome Linda!

Hi Doc!  

Life at home has been relatively uneventful since the pandemic hit.  Work, on the other hand, is a different story.  I've been busy picking up extra shifts, and though I have been handling an increased number of packages, they don't give me the same "tingling" sensation as the packages I  see at your awesome parties!   

The Awesome Linda

I really miss the sexy dance contest and can't wait to share the stage with that sexy overgrown lizard!  🦖

We shall see you soon.

~Linda~
