APRIL 8. New York City. I decided to go to a massage parlor. I looked up their ratings in Screw newspaper, checked the ones I wanted and was going to 3 or 4 that night. I couldn't do it. I walked past a place and then got lost (on porpose maybe). I felt like I was going to get raped. Called the best place for a reservation and was told, "You just come...
