A Few Minutes With Dr. Emilio - 1st Week of February

As we pick up our story, we find The Good Doctor abandoned in a snow drift, unable to move...

Doc here with "A Few Minutes With Dr. Emilio".  It's been awhile since my last one, since I was busy Greco-Roman wrestling image issues and photostreams.  So let's play a little catch up, shall we?

Why Follow The Good Doctor on Twitter, and what the Hell is "The Clicker"?
Much like my good friend and colleague, Major Voyeur, I like to use social media as a value-added service to you, the good readers of The Journal.  Twitter has let me broadcast real-time announcements on couples visiting adult theaters, and I will always preface a couples Tweet with "The Clicker".  Here is an example:










If I am available, and I can swipe the announcements off of Yahoo or CL, I will do my best to get the information out to you via "The Clicker".   At times, I may just Re-Tweet a message from Major Voyeur (for the St. Louis area members of this thing of ours').  Either way, our goal is to tell you the who, what, where, & when of the potential of adult theater fun.

Bottom line: If you have a smart phone, load the free Twitter app, and follow The Good Doctor

Archive Work Continues
I have been slowly reloading images into The Journal's archive of articles after The Journal was dope-slapped with technical issues.  Be patient... I have reloaded all of January's articles, and I'm working on December's right now.

What Do You Get When You Cross The Journal With Baseball? The Best Mickey Mantle Story Ever

Next to adult theaters, The Good Doctor's #1 passion is baseball.  So when I come across a story that mixes my favorite team (the New York Yankees), a Hall of Fame player (Mickey Mantle), and public sex, well I'm in.  All in.

The Yankees sent a two-statement fill-in-the-blank survey in advance of Yankee Stadium's 50th anniversary to former and current Yanks in 1972. The first question was: "I consider the following my outstanding experience at Yankee Stadium." The second question was: "This event occurred on or about (Give as much detail as you can)."

Here is Mickey Mantle's awesome response (Click on the letter to ENLARGE):


























Lastly, Two Big Thank You's
Thank You #1: On Tuesday, 2/1, The Journal had it's all-time busiest traffic day.  Over 2,400 page views, and over 600 unique visitors. 

Thank You #2: January 2011 was the busiest all-time month for The Journal, even with 2 weeks of the blog screwing the pooch. 

Keep the great field reports coming in... Every month we will get several new contributors, offering their view or experiences at an adult theater or ABS.  Couple these new reports with those of our regular contributing reporters, and we can provide you with current content within the niche of society that is this thing of ours'.

Thanks,
Doc

Flash Report: Brent's Theater Tails Presents "Sunday Surprise"















Doc here with a quick Flash Report from the poet laureate of this thing of ours', Brent in Portland.  Sunday evening at The Paris Theater in Portland provided a noteworthy event, and here is Brent to give us the details.

Maestro, if you please...

***

Around 8 PM this past Sunday there was a couple in the couples section at The Paris Theater, just hanging out. He looked like one of those British actors in the movie, Snatch. She wore glasses. She looked like Tempest Bledsoe from The Cosby Show. She was dressed in jeans and T shirt, round the way kickin' it threads.

I thought they were leaving but instead they first checked out the gay theater for a minute. Then they came back to the main theater and sat on the couch closest to the bedroom.

Before I knew it she was taking her clothes off and The Paris Volunteer Fire Brigade was rushing towards her smoking body. Theater sex adrenaline rushed through The Paris like lightning . Her strip tease caught most of us by surprise. Guys were all over her, feeling her tits, stroking her ass, fingering her pussy engulfing her with their love. She was really getting into it. She arched her back and put her arms around one guy while he reached around and caressed her pussy. She sucked on her man's cock while she took dick after solid dick into her wet pussy. One young guy was so horny he lasted about a minute before coming into his condom . A few more guys fucked her.

When she wasn't getting fucked, she still stayed bent over with her ass in the air, greedily waiting for the next hard dick. Two guys fingered her while she was like this and it brought her to a rip roaring orgasm. I'm not sure if anyone went down on her. They may have. I don't remember if she sucked anyone besides her old man but she was passionate about getting fucked and that was fine with everybody there.

***

One thing that we have all learned this week, is that spontaneous adult theater sex can occur at any time (and not just Friday and Saturday nights). 

Thanks for the report, Brent!

Flash Report: Twin Cinemas at Buford Highway by WM












Doc here with a Flash Report from first time contributor, WM.  Looks like WM visited the recently re-opened Twin Cinemas at Buford Highway, and he would like to tell us what he saw.

Take it away, WM...

***

Doc,

I made my way from my home in TN to Augusta last night planning a stop at Buford Twin Cinemas in Atlanta for my 2nd visit to the theater. 

Twin Cinemas at Buford Highway
Doraville, GA
(outside Atlanta)

I arrived a little before 5 pm.  The parking lot was about ½ full and I assumed there would be nothing but guys there at that time.  I asked the guy up front if there had been any couples in today and he that there had been four in so far, but didn’t know if there were any there at that time. 

I went on in to theater #1 and waited on the back wall for my eyes to adjust.   As I was able to look around there were about six guys sitting throughout the theater with 3 sitting in a small area about 10 rows in front of me.  One guy got up and left and I realized he was sitting one row behind the couple, so I took his place. 

As I sat there, I could tell that they were probably there to only watch the movie as he had his arm around her and that was pretty much it.  They would whisper to each other every once in a while and after about 20 minutes, they left.  She was a short brunette with glasses with a large ass.  He was a tall slender dude.  After they left, there was no more female traffic for the next 3 hours.  There was one guy in Theater # 2 that was blowing and fucking anyone that would sit next to him. 

Hopefully I can visit there again soon to see what couples action there is.  Love your reports and enjoy reading them.
 
Thanks,
WM

Thanks for the kind words, WM!  Nicely done first time report.  4 Couples on a Monday?  Not bad at all for any adult theater currently on The Journal's radar.  Looks like the TCABH is back!

Do you have a report you'd like to see on The Journal of Adult Theaters?  Just click the arrow on the upper right hand side of The Journal, and e-mail The Good Doctor.  It's easy... Just ask WM.

Thanks,
Doc

Same Day Flash Report! "Angel" at CTs in Gary, IN by HnR (w/ HOT PICS)












Doc here... As we prepare in The Valley for the snow Apocalypse hitting us tomorrow, a special treat hit The Good Doctor's inbox: A same day Flash Report from regular Chicagoland-based Journal field reporter, HnR.  Things were hopping at CTs Adult Theater in Gary, so I will let HnR take it from here...

(Note: Click on the images to enlarge them)

***

As I was reviewing my shopping list in preparation for the "Blizzard of the Century", I decided to check my play email account before I left my office. I noticed the following alert from CT's Theater:"TODAY 1/31/11 at 3PM ""ANGEL"" the hot 18 years old from last saturday is comming be here she is a HOTTIE".

Hmmmmmm, since the timing was right I decided to make a major detour from my planned shopping route. About an hour or so later I was pulling into the CT's parking lot. It was about 3/4's full, which is quite heavy for a Monday afternoon. I went in, paid my fee to Mike and he told me that Angel was on her way and that she was quite the 18 yo hottie. Actually got to see a picture her guy had posted on the yahoo group, nice body and her face was blurred out. The dancers laughed and said they thought she looked older... like 28.... think they were messing with us horny guys dreaming about the young lady that might be coming our way. About 3:30pm or so they walked into the store lobby.

Wow, she was in a tight, short black dress with black stockings up to almost her ass cheeks and matching black high heels (an outfit like a stripper might wear for a routine). Mike teased her about not having a coat on since it was so cold out, so her guy joked that he could go get it if us guys wanted that... We said no she was ok the way she was.

She is about 5'2" or so with no heels, no more than 110 lbs, shorter blonde hair, light skinned and a very tight spinner type body, with small but very perky breasts. After listening to her talk with her man and to Mike and another one of Pete's helpers for about 15 minutes, I'm very sure that she was as young (18) as listed in the posting.

"Angel"

I went into the theater and waited for approx 20 minutes when they made their way into the theater. By this time there were about 15 guys in the room once everyone had followed them in. One of Pete's helpers (not sure of his name) came in with her and her guy. Her rules were simple, must use condoms and she did not give oral.

She started out standing by the broken down outside type furniture to the left, as we circled around her guy announced that she really loves the attention, with that about what seemed like 10 hands reached towards her.

She took her outfit off and was looking to lay down as Pete's helper was going to start the action by eating her young pussy out. She did not feel comfortable with the aforementioned furniture as she though she would collapse to the floor (her words), so it was determined that they would go to the back row.


Off to the back row, her man sat in the seat to the far left, she was next to him and a brother happened to be sitting in the seat to the right (lucky dude). She sat down and spread her young slender legs and the helper got down on his knees and began to taste the youthful fruits of this hottie. The brother next to her began to rub/suck her right breast. Behind the diner was another regular stroking his hard cock and I was behind him stroking my almost hard cock. Not sure, but it seemed like we was going to get to fuck her while she was in the seating area. Doable, but maybe not the best angle and the flow of guys would have been difficult in the tight quarters.

She was eaten out for about 2/3 minutes and then the helper announced that she was ready to move to the table (yippe!!! so much better for viewing and playing!). As the sea parted and the guys re-positioned ourselves she got on the table. The regular in front of me made his way to be first in line (only fair), and I was to his left ready to go next (again, only fair). Now she was in the light of the TV screen.

Hmmmmm, what a super, young tight body, top notch smaller but perky breasts with nipples that got quite excited, flat tummy with a perfectly trimmed "landing strip" and what I would describe as a "penthouse" worthy love box. Very tempting for me to get a taste before I entered her.... but I resisted the urge (only because of the large number of horny guys waiting).

The guy in front of me being a regular player at CT's understood how a GB works. He entered her pussy, fucked her for a couple of minutes, came and stepped down... Now I'm ready to roll... Slide on the condom, step up to the table and now I got a really good look at her from the TV screen light...Wow, she is really hot and has an absolute smoking body. Let me say I have only been playing in ABS's for 4 years now and have to say that she is my number 1 hottest girl (did I mention 18 YO!) that I had the good fortune to bang away on.

I watched as my cock entered through that beautiful set of young sweet pussy lips, the first stroke, the second stroke, then her pussy seemed to tighten and grab my cock. Now I'm putting my two hands, my thumb and fore-finger down by her pussy on each of her legs and begin to go faster which now gets her attention and engages her to be more vocal. I bang away watching her move her head from side to side and watching the little perkys bounce up and down until ahhhhhhhh, I'm finished.... All this in under 2 minutes!

 As I'm doing my final couple of slow down strokes I look down one more time at what I just had and wondered, how can I top this???? Not going to try, just continue to go to CT's when the circumstance seems right and maybe someday, hit another home-run. Not sure how CT's slipped to 4th in your ratings, but with last Saturday and today, I vote it number 1!

As I walked to my car I noticed that the main lot was full and there were several cars in the over-flow lot to the west. Guess everyone was getting one last bang in before the snow storm!!
Til next time.....
HnR

  • HnR does his veni, vidi, vici with Angel @ CTs
  • HnR writes and submits a great same day report
  • Same day pics of Angel come to light
  • The Good Doctor gets the report online
  • All within 8 hours
Not bad for a Monday.

Doc

Flash Report: Cruising The Coast with Bob in Biloxi - End of the Month Recap










Doc here with the penultimate Bob in Biloxi Flash Report!  All I can say is "wow!".  It's safe to say Bob's bad luck in the Fall of 2010 is officially over in a big way.

Enjoy Bob's ribald tale of fun on the Gulf coast...

***

Hi Doc,

Glad to see you’re back up and running.  The past few weeks down here on the coast has seen some rather interesting events. For some reason the theater action has been somewhat slow, but the ABS action has been downright smoking!

I’ll start off with the events in date order and progress to last weekend...

About 9pm two ladies showed up at the ABS, paid and walked into one of the booths playing lesbian porn. I was lucky enough to grab the booth next to them! After some fondling and kissing both started undressing each other in a slow but sensual way only women can achieve, both kept looking at the hole and smiling. I was thinking I just may be living right after all. Both ladies had long dark hair and oversized store bought boobs, fairly attractive and dressed to play with skirts, button down blouses and heels. One of the ladies sat down in the chair while the other kissed her kitty for awhile, so I stuck my cock through to see if there was any interest. One of them started stroking me, but that’s all she would do, so I pulled back out and continued to watch the show. After about 45 minutes they started getting dressed and soon they left. That was a first for me, but they seemed to be more into each other than men, and that’s cool too!

Bob in Biloxi
 Later on that night a new couple came in, well new to me. She was a BBW with a brown dress on, her and her man went into a booth and after awhile I was able to get next to them. She was sucking his cock while he was adorned in women’s panties. Not my thing, as usually guys that dress like that suck more cock than the woman does, so begged off and let one of the other perv’s have my booth. Good thing too, because another couple had just come in and was headed to the booth area.

She was a very small lady, long blonde hair, dressed in jeans and a pullover sweater, small boobs and had on tennis shoes, probably 35yrs old or so. Wasn’t really what I would call dressed to play, but stranger things have happened in this thing of ours. Her and her old man chose a booth opposite of the row where the other couple was playing, so the hounds where on the other side and didn’t see them come in, but Bob did and was able to secure the booth next to them. 

Almost immediately she started undressing along with him. This may turn out to be something after all? Soon she was on her knees blowing him and as usually the case I looked through the hole and saw that he was looking at the hole too, again usually a sign they are there to play. I took my cue and fed my cock through the hole and was rewarded with her hot mouth on my cock! I could hear/feel her moan as she starting sucking my cock, she was highly talented and I could tell she really got into both showing off for her man and displaying her abilities on me. I didn’t last but maybe 10 minutes before unloading down her throat. With a thank you ma’am, I was off for another adventure.

The next week, was just as fun, one lady and her man was in a booth, she is a school teacher looking gal, blonde hair, slim, killer little ass, small boobs, she always wears these scholarly looking glasses, dresses well, but doesn’t stay dressed for long. Her mode of operation is to sit in the chair facing the hole and waiting for a cock she likes to come through the hole. Several guys spent time trying to get her attention sticking their cocks through the hole to no avail. I found that if you’re soft going through your wasting her time.

So with this in mind I got ole Stanley hard before presenting it to her and was rewarded with her soft touch. A few seconds later she tapped on my cock, signaling me to pull back out, I knelt down at the hole and she asked me if I wanted to come over. Uh yes! He then laid out a blanket on the floor and she was on her knees showing me just how great of a cocksucker she can be! She is shaved and very clean so I asked if she needed the kitty licked. Duh. After giving her the ole good tongue lashing she turned around, bent over and said give it to me. I did, she was very tight and soaking wet. 

I enjoyed it and it seemed she was happy too! Sorry about your head hitting the wall several times, but she said she was ok!  While another buddy of mine was in the other booth watching, he’s short and can barely reach the hole, she made the comment to me that she prefers guys to be hard when they stick their dicks through so she can gauge whether or not to have fun with them. I spread that little piece of information around, but they left soon afterward, so I guess my clue fell on deaf ears.

The following weekend, this great looking lady I hadn’t seen in months showed up with her ole man, he  had videotaped her blowing me in the parking lot some months back. She’s in her twenties, dark medium length hair, probably 5’4 well shaped, NO flab at all, she has a small landing strip and medium/small boobs but very attractive!

Her and her man went into a booth and one of the regulars beat me to the adjoining one. So I waited until he came out. We all made a pack to keep the cock blockers (gay) from hogging a booth next to a couple, so we would wait to come out until one of the straight perv’s could get to the door. He did and let me take his booth.

She had her shirt off and was blowing her man, so I waited until she gave me the finger through the hole signal and slid mine in, she stroked me for few seconds, then started licking me. She gave me a tap and I pulled out, as I did she passed me a condom, which I rolled on. She was taking off her jeans and said put it back in, so I did and could feel her ass rubbing against my cock, also I heard the sound of the chair moving over in her booth.

After a few minutes I pulled back out, she was bent over telling me she was too short for the hole. (Bob’s idea next!) I told her to get one of the coke crates in the lobby and stand on that. She started laughing her ass off, not believing me, I told her all the shorter ladies use them and the place was cool with an occasional step up!! So her ole man left the booth, and damn if he didn’t come back with a soda crate for her as a boost up to the hole! With the logistics out of the way she backed that sweet ass and pussy down on my cock and went to fucking it. I could hear her moaning and at the same time trying to suck her mans cock. I did my best to keep the thought of her standing on a soda crate backing up to the hole fucking me while sucking another cock out of my mind, but the whole thing was too much after awhile so I unloaded in the condom.

Damn that was hot as hell. Where there’s a will there’s a way I guess.  I bent down to thank her, she told me while still giggling that was a first for her using a booster seat to fuck!! It was great for me too baby!!!

I love it when a plan comes together, I also love it when there’s no issues (cock blockers or dumbasses) screwing things up for everybody, these past weekends have been just that!  Fucking great (pun is intended)!

If you ever see Bob in Biloxi at your nearest ABS or adult theater, have him buy a lottery ticket for you.  This guy is on a streak!  Congrats to The Journal's intrepid senior reporter, B in B.

Have a report you'd like to see on the pages of the Journal?  Just click the arrow at the top right side of The Journal, and e-mail it to The Good Doctor.  I'll do the rest...

Flash Report: The Editor Visits The Lido Adult Theater in Dallas












The Good Doctor has been accused in the past of posting nothing but positive reports from adult theaters across this country.  While I try to emphasize the positive points of this thing of ours', I will never shy away from a less than positive review or report.  One needs to be objective if accurately portraying our little niche of society's dark underbelly.

Case in point is the following report from regular contributor The Editor.  He is a straight-forward reporter...No fluff to be found in his articles.  Here is his Texas tale focused on The Lido Adult Theater in Dallas.

***

Hi Doc,

Had an unplanned layover at DFW Friday night so I went down to The Lido. Got there about 8pm, upstairs was all guys, just a few in the theater and maybe 10 trolling the private rooms.

At 9pm they ran the guys out of upstairs for "couples only".  There were a few waiting to go into the theater, a couple of BBWs 35yrs */-.  The best looking woman in the place was a tall thin TV, but he was run out as well.  I suspect that there may have been a couple of single guys camped in the private viewing rooms and the big janitor/security/general manager let them stay.  I can't prove that.
I retreated to the downstairs. 

The gay theater changes to hetero movies at 9pm.  It is a smelly dark place and there were only 4-5 guys in there.  I wandered the store and kept an eye on things.  There were maybe 10 couple in between 9 and 10, although a few were quick in/out.

The Lido Adult Theater
Dallas, TX
 Since I was dead tired after a hectic week in TX and I needed to catch a 0700 flight, I didn't stay.  The lack of a gang of single men indicated to me that there was little reason to hang out.  I got no vibe from the staff that there had been recent law enforcement.
----
Also, The Fine Arts store on Mockingbird, less than a mile away, used to have 2 small theaters.  Now it has the store split into gay and straight.  The only theater they have now in on the gay side.  I passed.

About 3/4 miles N of Lido is a new (to me) adult store.  I stopped in.  No theater but a HUGE private viewing rooms section (no entry fee).  Maybe 20 rooms.  Fri night NONE of the very nice large and well equipped rooms were being used, but there were 25+ guys hanging in the aisles.  It is a VERY nice place but I suspect it is all sausagefest all the time.

-----
I've not been to the Lido in 10+ yrs and this was nothing like what I remembered.  There used to be a theater downstairs in the rear but it has been torn down and replaced with retail video shelves.  On Friday nights that theater was jammed with guys hoping a couple would come in.  I was happy to see the number of couples there Friday, but there was no sign of players.  Maybe if I'd have spent the night...

The Editor

***

Doc here again... Thanks to The Editor for another fine report.  The Lido is perhaps one of the finest adult theater facilities in the country.  Clean, tons of parking, private rooms galore, and the upstairs lounges are very nice.  In my conversations and trips to The Lido myself, the best night for single guys to mingle with couples is Thursday night.  The fun starts at 8pm, and since this is a 24/7 business, can occur at any time. 

The main issue with The Lido is couples nights... The Theater takes on a swingers club vibe, and the fishing is not good for single guys.  However, if you are a couple, Friday and Saturday rock!

Another piece of advice... The DFW couples looking to play at The Lido use Craigslist extensively.  This tool will help minimize any missed opportunities.

Do you have a report you'd like to see on the pages of The Journal of Adult Theaters?  Click on the arrow on the upper right hand side of The Journal and send your report.  I will format, spell check, and drop in the photos.  You supply the report.  OK?  OK.

Thanks,
Doc

Flash Report: Biker1952 and Friend Visit The Summit in Warren, OH












Doc here with an outstanding report from first-time contributor, Biker1952.  Sounds like his visit to The Summit in Warren, OH was a success.  But don't take my word for it...

***

Myself & my ladyfriend arrived at the Summit at approx 9 PM. As we were paying our entry fee, Eric, an employee, asked if my lady was into women. When I asked why he said there is another couple in the theater. Just then a tall redhead wandered out of the theater & said she needed a break because she was extremely arroused. I thought this is looking to be a great nite.

Walking into the theater we noticed about 6 or 7 men sitting on the couches or theater chairs. The screen is large & gives off enough light to see but not so bright that it spoils the mood. We took our seats on the back couches. The men here have learned to give couples time to get comfortably settled. I made the first move by pulling my cock out & stroking it. I love to watch porn & stroke my cock with people watching.

After several minutes my lady bent over & started sucking me. Now you must understand, this lady is not shy. If she sees someone she wants she goes right to them & tells them to come over. Soon I & 3 other guys were standing in front of her while she hungrily devoured us. At this time I realized the other couple had returned to the theater & the redhead was very excited. I could see her feet on the back of a chair & her pants pulled down to her ankles. The gentleman beside her was fingering her very forcefully. By the volume of her orgasms he was doing a very good job.

At this time my lady sat on my lap facing away & continued to suck a couple guys while I fucked her. After 3 orgasms for her I went out to get her a drink. When I got back 1 guy had her bent over & was nailing her from behind while she sucked off another one & jacked off one other. I noticed the redhead was now sitting on our couch with her pants off & blouse pulled up exposing small but firm tits. I asked her if she wanted to fuck but she said she only does oral. "May I eat you then?" I asked. She smiled wickedly & said yes. Within 15 seconds of me eating her she screamed & exploded in my mouth with so much pussy juice I could not swallow it all. This went on for 4 more orgasms. I have never seen a woman come so violently & squirt so much. For the next hour & a half we just kept taking turns with these ladies.

The difference in the ladies orgasms was amazing. My lady could have an orgasm every 2 minutes & the only noise was her quietly saying"I'm coming on your cock". The other lady was very loud vocal & physical. Because of these 2 horny & physical ladies I had to quit in about an hour. Those 2 ladies took care of at least 10 men that nite.

I had a hard time driving the 2 hrs back to home that nite. We will be back as soon as possible. I am trying to line up 3 or 4 of my lady friends to go to The Summit with me. They all said they want to but it is tough getting the logistics together.

Great freshman report by Biker1952!  The Summit is seeing a great deal of fun from what I have heard through the grapevine, and this is an example of what one may find there.

Technical Problem Update: Out of the Woods

















Doc here with some good news for the first time in two weeks.  The technical issue plaguing The Journal has been solved and our highly trained staff (OK, me) is ready to start to arduous task of reloading the banners and photos into the archived reports.  This will take days to complete, but in the end I hope The Journal will resemble it's former self.

I have several new reports in the can that will take priority over the restoration.  Look for them over the next few days until I get caught up.

My major lesson learned from all of this: Photostreams are a pain in the ass.

One of the features that will not return to The Journal will be slide show of adult theaters from my archive.  It provided some nice eye candy, but is not worth the landmine that I stepped on as a result of this gadget.

I want to thank the people who e-mailed me during the time The Journal was on the operating table and who lent their support and advice. 

Now, where were we?

Technical Diffculties Continue

Ever attempt to do a car repair, and since you think you have it figured out, you do it yourself?  Well, I was sure it was the alternator. I was wrong.

Needless to say, by just looking around you can tell The Journal is broken pretty badly. 

Over the next few days, one of the following will happen in order to fix The Journal:
  1. I will be able to reload most photos, drop them into their proper place, and we will continue as if nothing happened. Odds: 20:1
  2. I will have to take The Journal down, and upload my back-up. Then I will reload The Journal's images. Odds: 10:1
  3. I will take The Journal down, and reload the back-up without archive images. Odds: 5:1
  4. I will have to create a brand new blog, new URL, and upload the archive to the new site. 10:1
If Option 4 occurs, info will be posted on the old site and I will have a link to the new site.

Also, site and theater updates can be read at my Twitter... http://twitter.com/LizardoJournal

Thank you for your patience.

Doc
