Exposed Breasts on Billboard Covered by Wind and Clear Channel

One day, there was a massive display of neathage (the exposed bottom part of a woman's breasts commonly seen when a woman wears a very, very short top) on a Clear Channel billboard for the Palms on I-15 in Las Vegas. Then one day, the wind came and ripped away the neathage portion of the billboard causing some to believe conservative groups had vandalized the sexed-up board or that the Palms had changed it's ad policy in reaction to the Hard Rock getting fined for its sexed-up efforts. Then on yet another day, the board went back up and this time, the women's breasts were no longer hanging out the bottom of their tops. See the image to the right.

At first, the Palms claimed it was the hotel that decided to erect a more conservative version of the former board. But, unsurprisingly, it was conservative giant Clear Channel who laid down the edict - no exposed boobs on our boards. So even in the city whose sole purpose it is to entertain, titillate and stimulate, conservatism reigns supreme.

Read your item with interest and noticed a grammar mistake. The contraction "it's" is short for "it is." The word you probably meant to use was the possesive "its". Examples would be "It's too late to fall in love with her" and "Its fur was very soft."
