I don't know art, but I know what I like!

James Taranto, in Tuesday's Best of the Web, links to the latest Twilight Zone news:

Dispatch From the Porn Belt
A Common Council committee in Milwaukee (Gore by 39.43%) is backing a local establishment's request to be designated a "Center for the Visual and Performing Arts," reports the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. That would put the establishment "on a par with the Milwaukee Art Museum or Marcus Center for the Performing Arts."

The establishment? The Club Paradise Gentlemen's Club, a nudie bar. If the designation goes through, the club "may soon cater to underage customers, as long as they don't drink alcohol."

They actually have a couple of paintings by a "nationally known artist", but I like this touch:

There's also a tasteful mural of a nude woman in orange and red on the wall behind one of the stages, right next to a neon sign that says "Table Dancing Available."

I wonder if they have a gift shop?
