A Pole Is Her Canvas

It's a Viking's life for me. A court in Oslo, Norway, has determined that striptease is an art form, thereby exempting it from value-added taxes.

IOL reports:

" 'I'm very pleased - 90 percent of the guests here tell me what I'm doing is art,' a female stripper at the Dream Go Go Bar in the city of Trondheim told NRK radio on Wednesday."

The other 10 percent were too busy stuffing euros in the artist's G-string.
