Disappointment

I’ve covered the plight of Sunshyne Video (link is not work safe) before. Sunshyne is a local adults only store and, according to local politicos, a den of debauchery and iniquity. They’ve had a heckuva time battling the local Adult Entertainment Board, which is a sham of a political body (see my posts here, here and here). I even interviewed the owner, David Anderson, here. Heck, I even link to their blog (link is not work safe) some times.

Well, yesterday I happened to be in that direction (I never knew where the place was) and decided to stop in. I went in and expected to see naked, dancing women and live sex shows because that’s what the local press and politicos keep telling me was there. They had none of that and I was disappointed. All I saw were three-dimensional devices designed or marketed as useful primarily for the stimulation of human genital organs, dirty movies, and a variety of novelty items. Oh, and a sign that said No Public Restroom, which is a good thing to have if you sell porn.

I introduced myself to David and told him who I was. We had a good laugh and he told me they’re still fighting in court due to not having a license to be an adult business because the sham adult business board won’t give them one. He also told me that each employee has to be approved by the local adult business board, which obviously is intended to make it hard on (heh) such businesses to get help. He was trying to get someone approved now.

By the time we got done talking, I had no time for browsing.

Good luck in the fight, Dave, and tell us how it goes.

One Response to “Disappointment”

  1. David Says:

    Well indeed it is always nice to meet someone. But I do apologize for your dissappointment considering the dancing girls showed up about 10 minutes later after you had left.

    But no I have to say the above statement of Dancing girls is a lie because it is not allowed according to the law.

    I am glad that you came by and had a chance to check out the place that has now become an icon of Blount County History. I am also glad that you had a chance to see what really goes on here. Not anything really exciting. Its just a business that just happens to deal in adult merchandise just like our web site that sell dvds for only $1.85 each! But thats a different story.

    As far as I know we are scheduled to be back in court again in August. We have been fighting these sham of a citation since February of 2005 and its hard to say when this whole thing will get settled.

    We are always under constant scrutiny by the politicans in each and every move that we make. Whats even more sad is that they actually have someone monitor our websites and from what I have been told they print out each and every page. I feel bad for the citizens of Blount County who have had to bear the cost of all this garbage that should never have been but when you have churches running the government then things like this will always happen. It does not matter that we are contantly under scrutiny because we have never broken a law since we have opened our store on Hwy 411 South and have no plans to start now. I welcome anyone to stop by and make their own assesment of our business. All questions moans and groans are welcomed. After this is SUPPOSED to be America The Land of The Free…….

    Anyhow just had to stop by and check out what was written…

    Have a Great Day!
