Shopping for designer clothes in Mexico City isn’t the same as it is in other world capitals.

In the tiny Miguel Caballero boutique on a leafy side street in the Polanco district, the jackets and shirts are not stacked according to size; they are stacked according to how well they will stop a bullet from piercing your chest.

“Low” means it can protect you against a .38 Special; “medium” will allow you to survive an assault from a sub-machinegun; and “high” will give you the chance to brag about the time someone tried to take you out at point-blank range with a .44 Magnum.

Welcome to the world of high-security fashion — a lucrative market in a country where there have been almost 3,000 murders this year, along with two or three kidnappings every day.

Miguel Caballero — named after the company’s Colombian founder — sells everything from trenchcoats to dress shirts (to be worn under your dinner jacket) and leather motorcycle jackets. Customers include President Chávez of Venezuela.

The most expensive line, labelled Black, features removable bulletproof panels that are so light and flexible that you can screw them up in your hand like paper. They are also thermo-regulating, meaning that they keep your body temperature between 13C (55F) and 17C. The only downside is the expense: $7,000 (£4,000) for a single jacket with the highest level of protection.

I need to get a few of these custom made. Things are getting dicey in this Down Economy.

Just to think, I have been cruising around Tijuana swooping girls in $7,000 non-bullet proof suits…

“She RUN DMC real quick to see me
It’s like that, and that’s the way it be
Since, it started way back in History
She like the beast in the boy
…said go ahead bring the noise
It’s all Anthrax…Public Enemy
Except, I trust it, she a special friend to me”

My friend “Hugo” AKA The Viper just told me about a new spot in Miami Beach called Bella Rose. (I typically don’t go to South Beach until winter).

Hugo told me that the spot was dope and he was peeling girls like bananas at a jungle hideout in Panama. Seems like this place is a return to South Beach before the corporatization.

Bella Rose is the brainchild of Cocaine Cowboys and Cocaine Cowboys 2 – Hustlin’ With The Godmother producers Alfred Spellman and Billy Corben, along with third partner Keith Paciello who is of course, brother of Chris Paciello. (Cocaine Cowboys was The G Manifesto’s Movie of the Year for 2007)

The good part, is Alfred Spellman disses Bottle Service:

“I think Bottle Service has pretty much destroyed night life but, luckily, I think the pendulum is finally swinging away from the models-and-bottles era that’s basically dominated night life since the turn of the century,” Spellman, said. “It creates a one-dimensional atmosphere and we want diversity.”

De La Soul – Shopping Bags lyrics

Her frame goes beyond thick, she got you stunned
Living it up off the pop hits
Like a dame on a Bond flick, she’s not the one
To give it up ’til you cop shit
Just because she’s stacked right, she got your soul
Her every wish you now obey
You should be on that act right, but she got control
She say jump you scream, “OKAY! I’M RELOADED!”
N*#ga you shooting blanks
Trying to front like you got game
Her crib is sugar coated, like she lootin banks
But it’s your wallet she done claimed
When the limit of your plastic, reaches the end
You start paying for your time
She’ll be in it for the last bit, of money to spend
HA, HA, HA And you’ll be left with dimes
While she filling up

Huge diamond could be a Record Breaker

A diamond unearthed in the southern African nation of Lesotho could yield one of the largest and highest quality round polished diamonds.

Experts in Antwerp, Belgium who analyzed the 478-carat stone determined it to be of the highest color grading available for a white diamond.

“What makes it more remarkable is the color and quality of this stone,” said diamond consultant Neil Buxton.

The diamond is a D color, which is the highest possible graded color you can get, and there is a chance of getting a 100-carat plus round stone with the highest color and clarity rankings.

The diamond, which was found in September, ranks as the 20th largest rough diamond ever found, but is not the biggest ever taken from the Letseng Mine, which is co-owned by Gem Diamonds Ltd. and the Kingdom of Lesotho, a country of 2.1 million that is surrounded by South Africa.

Two bigger stones — 603 and 493 carats — were found in the mine in 2006 and 2007, respectively, the company said. A 601-carat diamond was mined there in 1960.

The biggest diamond ever found so far is called the Cullinan diamond – which is part of the British Crown Jewels – and is measured at more than a staggering 3,100 carats.

Bill Maher – Real Time disses Levi Johnston

But that doesn’t change the fact that right now Levi is America’s number one political prisoner. But Levi, you don’t have to be – this is the 21st century, at least in the blue states. We don’t have sharia law like in Saudi Arabia, or Alabama, and as much as the Bible thumpers would want it, we still don’t have arranged marriages in America. You don’t have to do this – you have options. You can pull a Juno – fuck, you live in Juneau! Or you could do what most people do with an unwanted child: give it to Angelina Jolie.

Bill Maher – Real Time disses Levi Johnston

And if you’re worried about the baby, don’t – let’s get real dude, the way you are at 18, a baby’s better off not being around you – you’ll wind up losing it, or shooting it, or it’ll be on the bottom of your skate or something – just let the Palin womenfolk look after it for a while, one more infant in that Mormon compound they call a house won’t bother anybody – they’ll barely notice another kid at the table, and soon they won’t even remember whose seed it was that produced young “Trink” or “Truck” or “Puck” or whatever fucked up redneck name they give him.

In any event, we here at Real Time have taken the liberty of purchasing the website FreeLevi.org. And I will be happy to give the site over to you if you want to use it to get folks to contribute to some sort of liberty fund so you can get enough money to get out of that frozen meth lab they call a town. And even if the money doesn’t come in, listen to me, it’s not too late: just grab your skull bong, climb out the window, and get on the highway. I can’t actually come get you, or even let you stay at my place because I’m pretty sure you’d smoke all my weed, but just call me from a pay phone, I know of a safe house you can stay ‘til after the election, it’s like the witness protection program for baby-daddies.

Bottle Service Update: Half-bottle service in Las Vegas

One of my droogs just sent me an article about Bottle Service in Las Vegas.

New York-New York Hotel & Casino’s new nightclub — ROK Vegas — will offer half-bottle service when it opens to the public Labor Day Weekend. It’s billed as a Vegas first. Half bottles start at $175, plus tax and gratuity.

The idea is to “enhance the VIP experience by offering guests more choices for their tables,” according to press materials, plus give nightlife lovers a more budget-friendly club option.

Source

To me, this is hilarious; a budget conscious option for Nightclubs. I predicted the demise of Bottle Service and “Bottle Service Guy” here: Bottle Service: America’s Nightlife Nightmare and here: Outlook for 2008. So long, Goodbye.

What’s next? Selling bottles by the quarter bottle?

How about just selling it by the drink?
