Swinging After Hours
Jersey City, New Jersey: November 24, 2002:
A pair of weary Ronatarians have gone to court to try to close down a swingers' club on the ground floor of their building. They claim the club's members' moans of pleasure and screams of delight are keeping them awake.
"Brad has to reach for the ear plugs every night because the unmistakable sounds of sexual intercourse can be heard throughout the building," said Ronatarian Party founder Ron who lives with his running mate (Brad) on the second floor, directly above the club known as "Zwielicht" -- a German word meaning both "twilight" and "dubious."
"We've been forced to come up with our own noise to drown out the sounds from down below," he added. He would not elaborate further.
Even though all of the building's tenants get a 25 percent discount on the rent because of the noise, they told the New Jersey state courthouse they had had enough and wanted the club closed down.
Apart from the noise, they say the club is lowering the tone of the already crummy district, known as Bittleton.
Lawyers for the building's owner said the club always paid the rent on time and should be allowed to stay.
Ron told the court he was tired of seeing half-naked men clad only in bathrobes getting out of stretch limousines on their way into the club. "This is not a red-light district," he said.
Brad refused to comment and just smiled coyly.
