Welcome to the Faces on Fourth Street Blog

Thanks for visiting the new Faces on Fourth Street blog. For those of you not familiar with blogs, they are basically a journal, diary, or web log. Blogs have grown in popularity over the last five years as bloggers have used them to share their thoughts, knowledge, and research abilities with the world. Bloggers influence continues to grow as they cover late-breaking news, politics, gossip, and everyday life. Our goals are less lofty. We hope to communicate with our loyal customers, answering questions, sharing details on new club promotions and events, keeping them current on information that we think they can use, and maybe persuading them to come to the club more often. The fact that you are here means that at some point you met me at the club...maybe we had a drink together...maybe I enjoyed watching you dance and I introduced myself....maybe we chatted about the club and you had a great idea....or maybe you were just a good customer, someone who exchanges nods and smiles with me...however we met, I thank you for taking the time to hit this blog as well as the club. Please do not pass this blog address on to anyone else yet...we hope to meet and get to know a small group of people like you...people who enjoy the club and who can help us make the Faces experience more enjoyable. We hope to nurture a more intimate relationship with our blog visitors, building a group of "friends of Faces" who can help us spread the word about the club. We might tell you something before we announce it publically...we might ask your advice...we might invite you to a private party. Blogs can be updated almost immediately so we will be able to provide "late" updates on club news and events. The blog format can lend itself to interaction and facilitates better understanding. We hope that people who may not visit Faces on Fourth Street often will find our blog and website (FacesNoLimits.com) interesting enough to contemplate coming more often. While we hope to sometimes entertain or amuse, and our blog will not confine itself exclusively to Faces on Fourth Street, we make no pretense of being anything more then what we are. If we offend or make anyone angry, we apologize in advance. We will try to treat everyone with respect and we ask that people posting comments do the same to us. Because our blog may sometimes have adult content, we ask that all blog visitors and posters be over 18. I have to ask...if you have a complaint or a concern, please email us rather then posting negative comments here. I found with our website forum that the attacks got very personal and could have been resolved with a civil email or a face-to-face conversation. We will feel our way and see how we can make this work without rehashing old news...or hurting anyone's feelings.
